Hey everyone,

I've just agreed to buy some rims off someone in Queensland and was wondering if anyone has ever had rims sent over to Melbourne from Queensland, cash on delivery before?

Any info regarding cost, time, companies etc would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Ali.

Hey there.

Unsure if U have organised anything as of yet but I work for a transport company that will be able to provide transport from QLD to Melbourne but we dont do COD. Not sure if any company's actually does this at all.

If you would like me to do you a quote, please send me a PM with the details of the shipment including your contact details.

Well thats an average price from australian air express who don't offer cod (we move alot of wheels around and they charge us about $30 for every 10 kilo'ish box).. I guess AAE is more corporate and would probably have better rates. Also guessing cod will cost extra so my quote is probably a bit off :(

I can recommend bus freight (www.busfreight.com.au) for large or heavy items. We also have our own courier (Allied Express) and get very good rates for large boxes, if you give me dimensions, postcodes and weight I could get a quote for you.

Are you shipping the wheels with tires?

Australia post to my knowledge is the only company which will do COD.

But you can forget australia post. As a in a box wheel will cube out too much.

I onced used couriers please to do COD, but you can forget that aswell since your sending to QLD.

so your sh!t out of luck with COD.

If you want to just freight up. Try:

TNT, IPEC, AAE, fastway (don't know if they deliver to QLD, maybe only NSW), NQX, etc.

Aviod DHL since its only national and they will charge way too much.

I used STAR TRUCK,

Onced i had 8 rims+tyres transport down from NSW though i don't know how much it costed as i did it through my company :thumbsup:. All you need to do is box them up, STAR TRUCK truck will come around and pick them up.

Do you mean Star Track? If so, they are good and deliver the goods. They have a very good business model and customer service is excellent. :)

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!

      Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.

      https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
