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

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.

regards

chris

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)

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

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Yep, if you are applying filler it sounds like there is something wrong with the body lol. Safe to assume there is going to be a lot of sanding going on if your still applying fillers.  Picture a perfect bare metal panel, smooth as glass. You lay down your primer, it's perfect. (why are you going to sand it?) You lay down the colour and clear, it's perfect. No sanding at all took place and you've got a perfectly finished panel.  You won't be chasing your tail, sounds like you were prepping to start laying filler. If your happy with the body after the sanding, there is some bare metal exposed and some areas with primer, no issues at all, start laying the filler. You are safe to lay filler on bare metal or primer (of course check your technical data sheet as usual for what your filler is happy to adhere to).  This isn't a 100% correct statement. There is primer that is happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. There are fillers that are happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. Just make sure you're using the right materials for the job.  Typically if you are using filler, you would go primer, colour and clear. I've never seen any instances before where someone has laid colour over body filler (maybe this happens, but I haven't seen it before). So your plan sounds pretty normal to me.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I don't think there's any way someone is push starting this car.. I honestly can barely move it, and moving it and steering it is just flat out not possible. I'm sure it is, but needs a bigger man than me. I have a refurbished starter now. The starter man was quite clear and consise showing me how nothing inside a starter really should contribute to slow cranking, and turned out that for the most part... my starter was entirely fine. Still, some of the wear items were replaced and luckily it didn't show any signs of getting too hot, being unfit for use, etc. Which is 'good'. I also noticed the starter definitely sounded different, which is a bit odd considering nothing should have really changed there.... Removed and refit, and we'll pretend one of the manifold bolts didn't fully tighten up and is only "pretty" tight. GM only wants 18ft/lb anyway. I also found a way to properly get my analog wideband reading very slightly leaner than the serial wideband. There's Greg related reasons for this. The serial output is the absolute source of truth, but it is a total asshole to actually stay connected and needs a laptop. The analog input does not, and works with standalone datalogging. Previously the analog input read slightly richer, but if I am aiming at 12.7 I do not want one of the widebands to be saying 12.7 when the source of truth is 13.0. Now the source of truth will be 12.65 and the Analog Wideband will read 12.7. So when I tune to 12.7 it'll be ever so slightly safer. While messing with all of this and idling extensively I can confirm my car seems to restart better while hot now. I did add an old Skyline battery cable between the head and the body though, though now I really realise I should have chosen the frame. Maybe that's a future job. The internet would have you believe that this is caused by bad grounds. In finding out where my grounds actually were I found out the engine bay battery post actually goes to the engine, as well as a seperate one (from the post) to the body of the car. So now there's a third one making the Grounding Triangle which is now a thing. I also from extensive idling have this graph. Temperature (°C) Voltage (V) 85 1.59 80 1.74 75 1.94 70 2.1 65 2.33 60 2.56 55 2.78 50 2.98 45 3.23 40 3.51 35 3.75 30 4.00   Plotted it looks like this. Which is actually... pretty linear? I have not actually put the formula into HPTuners. I will have to re-engage brain and/or re-engage the people who wanted more data to magically do it for me. Tune should be good for the 30th!
