If the Australian government did not charge imput duty and gst, pushing import car prices up, they would not be able to hand out $900 to everyone!! I just wish I did not miss out on the $900 plus the hand out before xmas. Instead, I get to give the government $1200 week in tax ;)

If you pay that much tax you have nothing to complain about! as for the import duty well thats been happening for decades, why is the govenment only now able to afford to hand out money? considering imports have dropped off since the Aust dollar dropped and according to you import duty and gst is funding the government stimulus package yet retail spending is at record lows? I guess we have been :blink:

    • So, they admitted via message that they accidentally sent me a non Hella product. Then, hilariously, out of nowhere I get questioned about the legitimacy of my BMW intercooler for sale. This is the first *ever* enquiry in over 18 months. WIthin 8 mins of me telling "Total Engines" that I'd be reporting them for selling knock off's.
    • I don't know what it is supposed to look like, but I'd suggest confirming with Hella whether it is genuine. Some of the photos online do show parts with a Hella stamp on them. This looks sus.
    • Couldn't help but share the pics of my $350 "Hella" oil level sensor that arrived from totalengines via eBay today. It's like they're not even trying anymore ... And I think that's sad. 
    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
