Rb30 Block...

[nissan200sx.dk]

Hi all.

Im from denmark, and its not easy to get hold of a used RB30 block.

Do you guys know a company that will ship a used B30 block to denmark?

[femno]

I would imagine it would be pretty expensive...

Anyways I have a brand new one in a crate if youre interested.

I know frieght will be expensive, but will prob buy 2 - 4 engines, shipping should be tha same as I pay for a whole, dont know the word in english. Storage area, shipping wise. It wont be weight that has the final word on price. Arg. Bad explanation.

Im sorry, but want a used block as I want to build it myself. But thanks!

you get a whole shipping container? so you can put as much stuff in it as you want?

blocks like that are very easy to get over here, very cheap too, but will be hard to find someone who is willing to get it to the docks/onto the ship. because they are so cheap, its too much effort for something so worthless here

didnt realise new ones were still around? where did you find it?

Whats it worth?

I will supply and fill up a crate with 5 rb30 engines for you for about $5,000 and I will take it to be shipped as well. But you have to pay shipping costs.

[dano4127]

I will do it for $4500

[Guilt-Toy]

no you won't

hello for shipping get a SLATTED wooden crate made to ISPM15 standard ( the standard for importing/ exporting wood so you do not get any problems with customs. or need fumigation to kill bugs.) get it made as small as possible to avoid shipping costs and also making it cheaper to buy the box. this way you can lock the motors into the crate. then any damage to the motors had to be there b4 it was packed. that way no 1 can blame the shipping company for rough handling or stolen parts. a pine sealed crate should cost you roughly $40 per square meter of box surface area. a slatted crate would be rougly $35.

to actualy ship the crate i would contact either ANTRAK logistics or ROHLIG both are massive multi-nationals i'd expect it to cost about 400 for a good export quality crate + roughly $1000+ for freight. and about 6-8 weeks waiting around.

You mean FCL - Full Container Load

Thats not cheap.

An LCL - Less than Container Load shipment is what you want.

If you are going to be shipping less then say 10CBM then LCL is the way to go.

If you have MORE than 10CBM then an FCL would be the best bet(even if you only half fill it) because you will pay minimum charges on each CBM when shipping LCL but a set rate for FCL.

Basically to make it all simple:

1) Contact a freight forwarder and tell them what you want to do. (number of packages, weight, Cubic dimensions, load port+destination port)

2) Discuss with chosen freight forwarder what services they can offer you (door to door, door to port, CIF, DDU etc)

3) Contact an automotive wrecker in Australia and make sure they have "X" amount of RB30 engines for you to purchase.

4) Contact your freight forwarder and advise them of your purchase and either do an International funds transfer to pay the wrecker or sign a letter of authority for the freight forwarder to act on your behalf and pay/collect engines from the wrecker and transport to forwarders depot for export pack.

5) Freight forwarder will then arrange for overseas export. They will have an agent in your country that can arrange the delivery of the engines to your door.

It's not that hard.

Why bother with ISPM15 compliant packaging? There is nothing to comply to.

He's importing into denmark which has no natural boundries so QUARANTINE (not customs) risks are null and void

I posted one to canada, cost $650 AUD in shipping, including the plastic pallet. The charges were based on weight alone. I can organise some for you if you are interested

That would have been airfreight?

And it's not based on weight alone.

It's called CHARGEABLE WEIGHT, which is calculated with a formula. i.e. 100kg of feathers will have a greater chargable weight then 100kg of lead because the feathers take up more space in the aircraft so you have to pay more. (lame example I know, but thats how is works)

You can get a whole engine from a wrecks for 200bux. as long as the head good and just re build the engine. dont no nuffing about shipping price.........

ah fair enough, im not to familiar with Customs over that way in the world. At work i deal with a company called "cratemaster" all boxs/crates and timber are to ISPM15 so i just get every thing to that standard then i can guarentee that im not gonna get any unexpected fee's or calls from customs. But saying that i'd imagion most freight packaging suppliers would be complient. but in reality it wouldn't matter as long as the wood is good clean stuff.

It was sea freight, took 5 weeks. It was based on weight alone, as the chargeable weight dimensions for 140kg was over 1 cubic meter, therefore the same motor weighing 50kg would have been heaps cheaper. Put it this way, if it had been a140kg block of steel, it would have cost the same
