Hi ppl,

I have some items from japan being held at custom. I am looking around yellowpages and I dont know who I should use as my custom broker.

Could anyone please recommend one? How much would it cost for the service? This is my first time doing this, so wouldnt have a clue.

And Yes, I have use search function but nothing really specifically address my question.

Thanks

umm..

you don't need a broker, custom will contact you if they require you to play tax, if not custom will check it over and if everything is ok you should get it within a week or so just depends how long custom wants to hold it for or how busy they are... i had one item held for about 2weeks they must have just been busy..

Thanks for the input [Michael]

They sent me some forms to fill up...but they require me to register to get a Declaration ID (for example: ABN, CCID (custom client identification ID), or Client activity Centre No. (CAC)) first...

is that the normal procedure?

The items all add up more than A$1000...

also, can i just go to the custom office and settle everything down over there and collect my items? Anyone know where is the office? tried to look at their website but nothing much there.

did you get a registering as a member form (something like that), if so fill that out and fill it out for the supplier, and with the declaration dont neet to worry about the abn ccid etc. you can fill out the registering form on the behalf of the supplier. with the supplier just fill out all you know, with mine one did i just put down a name and e mail. also it will help if you give them reciet of your purchase and proof of payment and also your ID like you drivers license.

if need any help just ask i just done mine for my bride seats, got mine off greenline

i know all my items which were stop in custom where over in Melbourne, never in perth.

as flash89 said proof of amount paid on the item is important, if you paid by bank transfer go to the bank and get a transcript of the transaction. As they may (i can't remember) ask you to prove the amounted paid is the amount of the ems form. OR most likly it just you have to pay tax as the order was over $1000

also i just just reading over again you said that if all the items add up to $1000, thought it was only if one item was over $1000 that you might have to pay dutys etc

if you have all the items ship together, then i believe its the total value of all the items

I have my items shipped separately (each item has their own article number/tracking number).

also, the sender actually marked them as gift.

One of the items has actually been delivered. The rest were held in the custom :thumbsup:

i am guessing it is all in one box cause i ordered the bride seats with rails all in one hit with mine. got the rails but seats got stopped in customs also i got coil overs aswell and they were 1400ish and they didnt get stopped by customs but i am guessing cause they were in two boxes. wouldnt hurt to ask about it.

    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
