munkey, the dodgy asian men are at the swap meets. most of em are from china. quite a few of the computer stores are owned by china man as well.

i just went up to sydney last week, i didn't realise computer parts would b cheaper there else i would've looked around. went in that paddy's market, no computer stuff there.

cheapest place i've found here is msy. their parts are cheap cheap, those guys must get em cheap from some supplier.

take a look: www.msy.com.au

i dunno how dodgy they are though, went there and the store is pretty small and stuff. i tried to bargain em and it didn't work and they didn't have my motherboard in stock so i left.

where are the computer markets in melb, where dodgy taiwanese and asian men peddle expensive gear at insanely low prices like in syd?

boxhill town hall, camberwell, collingwood, springvale... go http://www.comtrader.com.au/ for a list of current. Going on prices on, well for anything (from cars to computers) i'd imagine melb would be cheaper for computer stuff. you get some dirt cheap deals, and while it looks dodgy, most of it works great

I could make soooo much $$ if i bough mobile phones and comp stuff and sold it in australia, but i would have to smuggle it in or i would have to pay import duty on the stuff!!

Inark u still smuggling stuff into the country with your anus?? wanna come to taiwan and we can stuff a few comp parts up your anus and bring it back to australia.:bahaha:

would there be any room up there to bring me back a set of mag wheels???

:D

hmm the weight and sixe of box +courier fee + import duty australia would charge you for the mags would be shiteloads!

I was told u pack all my old clothes in the dhl box and my new clothes in my suitcase then i wont get charged by dhl/customs for bringing back new things

i love the asian men at "swap meets" (dunno why ppl stll call em that, hardly anyone swaps anything... its jus "computer markets" in syd)

The most popular one up there is at North Rocks shopping center, they all own small stores and warehouses, and the guys that trade direct out of warehouses give you prices so cheap i've yet to see anything in melb compete with them.

The other place is on Liverpool St in Enfield, which is where umart (www.umart.com.au) dispatches its goods from, you go to the website, check the price, put in an order and you pay em when you pick up... brilliant.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
