'they're all reburbished 2nd hand goods"

Whoh looks great. Good job.

Did the car come factory option with double din? Looks too clean for an aftermarket dash.

Yeah. In japan they came with double din and auto climate control. I managed to get all yhe ducting. Looms. Motors. Sensors. Everything to do the conversion. Very hard to find complete. Hahaha. Very hard to find at all basically

Are you getting them sent with postal insurance?

Are you getting them sent with postal insurance?

umm that i cant remember..

im guessing that if i get them to say 950$

it will only be insured for 950 is what your going to tell me?

Yes, to my knowledge. Game of risk. I forget what the barrier for GST and customs duties are.

I was thinking of buying an exhaust off rhdjapan or perfectrun as well and wondering same. Quick research suggested to me;

If goods are over $1000, pay tax on goods+shipping value.

I.e. item $950 + shipping $150 = total $1100, no tax

But item $1050 + shipping $50 = total $1100 PLUS tax (10% GST and maybe 5% some other fee?)

Can anyone confirm?

If you're buying multiple items, get them to send them separately...postage should be about the same cost given it goes by weight. Just more effort for supplier to pack the stuff.

Back in the day we used to mark them as trade sample or gift, which was void of tax and customs duties. Think they might have scrapped it though.

Okay cool :P thanks for all that.

Ill see what they can do.

I'm thinking maybe just getting the 950 insurance and If I need the insurance (which I never really have before) I've got like 3/4 of it covered.

Everything imported/exported needs a value attached, sample or not. Even if it is $0.01.

Middle muffler is a bit over 5.5", it's easily the lowest part. Gonna replace with a resonator and then see how far I can come down.

No more natural camber = wheels lookin pretty Mexican, hope vic roads don't say anything

I took out the centre muffler to avoid a defect for too low. Got EPA'ed instead fml

    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
