Feel sorry for all you guys waiting on your cars.

I send a lot of cars, but usually have no problem getting spaces on regular services to Brisbane. Customs clearnance there is pretty quick also.

It is sometimes an issue of when you purchase compared to the shipping schedule. You should ask the broker or whoever you are using to show you the shipping schedule etc. It sux you have to do this of course, since you are usually paying them some $1000 extorsion rate to do *whatever it is they are supposed to be doing*........ I have bought heaps of cars for friends in Australia, naturally I make money at this end, but at the end of the day, they end up better off because they dont have to pay the extra $1000 to get it in....

Good luck to all...

Out of interest who was your supplier in Japan, and port of loading? I have just bought a car through Geoff, and I have search high and low for information about the port my car is getting loaded at... Kanda... Found nothing.

My car at the docks last night.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
