just thought i'd share some info ... my company produces alot of stuff and ships it all over australia, so when i had to send a set of suspension i told the guys to do it for me and they said to use this company http://www.startrackexpress.com.au/

rates are so cheap .. a full set of suspension .. weighing probably 30 kg's will cost about 20 bucks from adelaide to melbourne... and be delivered the next day!!! over 10 years my company has never ever been late nor has anything been lost!! and they have depots all over the place!!! let me know if theres another place that can do it better and cheaper :D

hey scotty .. u know i got told today and u can just ring up the place and use the account number that u will see on it ... and they will charge my company and they will even pick the stuff up from ur place ... u won't have to do a thing .. just make sure its packed good .. just try and use the same boxes that came with my stuff ... my friends at work did it all for me .. i didnt' have to worry about a thing it was that easy!!! .... but pm me later with ur number and i'll call u to tell u what to do ..

if they did ship international what they would have to do is hire another company over there to do the work there .... like if overseas companies send here they usually hire a local company i think ... i doubt it be cheap ... but to tassie?? ui'm pretty sure it will come under 200 easily for an engine ... i'm betting 150-100 bucks ... u just have to make sure its boxed .. cause its charge on the size or weight .. whatever costs more ..

yeh i understand its not based on weight its the amount of area it takes up in their truck/van/boat/plane

mate got his SR20+Gbox from adelaide to hobart for under $200 in little over a week. they picked up the pallet from the importer, and phoned him when it was ready to pickup in hobart. all he had to do was drive down there with a trailer and they dropped it on there.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
