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

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Ha ha, yeah, I've had one following me around in my parts boxes since about 2007 I believe. Just a little iddy bit hole drilled in the one I have to let it vent out once pressure was removed from the engine side. Still no idea what I'd put it on, ha ha.

      Anybody affected by the M1 minefield this morning?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Just read this... Just a little bit of a wild one! Do you think the driver was testing out a new feature/device for how to lose the cops in a high speed chase?   I also suspect, if the box has a road sweeper that does magnetic metal pick up, he does a LOT of work in the machining industry. Which is what most of that looked like, machining chips from a mill or lathe. And I bet they're RAZOR sharp! And from an environmental perspective they really do need to actually collect all of those little pieces too. I wonder how many people still cop flat tires over the coming months on that road?   As for insurance company, yeah, it'd be interesting to hear what they say to the owner. But realistically, he's right, that "It's his fault". In the way that, it was his truck that spilled it, so they need to clean it up. However, neither he, nor his insurance company may bear the end cost if they do an investigation and find out it was caused by someone elses negligence (And they know who)...

      Yeah, no matter what bad things people can say about Julian from Autospeed, he at least was capable of thinking and his inclusion of a check/relief valve in the plumbing for the Audi boost controller, that I made a copy of and used for years**, completely eradicated that problem. **It's still lying on my workbench where I put it about, um, 18 years ago and have never found a home for it!

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I didn't actually know this! I've seen photos of the H1, mainly outside shots, and they just look "different". I guess there'd be a few little changes like nicer rims, and probably the fact they have nicer looking paint with some depth and shine, which will make any vehicles body look different to the very flat colours of the defence force.   I've watched the guys on GHPC convert their Humvee to LS1, and they've done some really nice front shock upgrade. I'm waiting for the next video on it with the rear end done. I can't remember if they've already done it, or I dreamed it, but I believe they're also supercharging theres. They will be in the future doing proper long travel suspension too.   If you ditch out your big V8, as rubbish as it must be, send it to my place. I'll let the unreliable V8 motor and box be here. I just like V8s... So I'll find something to do with it... Even if that something is just taking up valuable space in the yard. I might have something Skyline I can send back in payment... Or even Ford Barra motors  (From memory you're in Canada yeah?) So you can then play with the legendary Aussie 4L version of an RB...  Except they don't have that distinctive random miss at idle like the RB25 does.

      Or you mean the age old problem of early 2000's manual boost tees, where they never let the pressure out of the line between the boost tee, and the waste gate, so after your first trip on boost, the damn wastegate liked to stay open and be laggy on gear change?
