Looking back at this post now, its amazing that you were able to get Motordyne's for 3.5k AUD.

 

Theyre going for 6.3k AUD now on JDMAccessories...

I haven't followed this thread to closely, but recently I had to purchase something from the US that was not car related, that did not ship to AUS. I found a service that gives you a US or UK postal address, and then redirects that to your Australian address. My item was only about 3lbs (it was American so imperial), and when I did the numbers, it worked out a lot cheaper than one company that did sell the same base model, but it had no options for upgraded accessories/additions and was well overpriced compared to buying it directly from the manufacturer. It was a cheap item, so it was also a test. The package has been delivered to my US address and is on its way here. The web site allows you to join without committing to a years membership (and had free upgrades for a trial). If I had to have a complaint till now, its that from the time it reached my US address till the time it was sent to / collected by DHL, it was so short, there was no tracking within the US address system, it was straight out for AU delivery! The other issue I had, was not with the re-director, but with DHL, that appeared to delay my package for no reason. As soon as I contacted DHL, they told me to contact the shipper, and when I contacted them, DHL updated my package status with 24hrs and the re-director apologised for the DHL delay.

I got a tracking number from the manufacturer to track it to my US address, and now I have a tracking number provided by the re-delivery, for delivery to AUS. I also have a StarTrack tracking number for delivery within AUS.

They also had a calculator where you entered the weight and the dest address to get an estimate of the shipping cost, before you sign up. Both my source and the re-director used PayPal, so it was pretty painless to pay. There were other companies, but the three I found, this one looked the best for my purposes; and as bothered as I could be with searching & researching.

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
