200$

'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

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
