I haven't been in contact with them at all. Thought they were just going to ring me instead.... Well my experience is that I haven't heard anything back from them whatsoever. Am I supposed to contact them to help finish the process?

Anyone got their cars yet. I forgot to sign my aircon exemption so It had to be signed and sent back to my customs officer on wednesday - not sure how much that is gonna delay the release of my car. Also I find it strange that some brokers can get away without lodging an a/c exemption and still not have to degas.

No I haven't got my car yet. I'm waiting very impaciently for my Bill of Lading to be sent through. Without it I am unable to complete the paperwork for customs and unable to book for a customs inspection. Very VERY frustrating...

Got my car today, didn’t go though the degas shit everyone seems to have issues with.

I just asked my import broker to see what he can do, to get the car released without it been degassed or sign that air con exemption. All Good.

Nothing stolen.

It idles great that’s all I’ve done.

Ill try to get some dealer plates so I can run it out to Maddington to get complianced. Should be a good run on Japanese fuels and a loud exhaust, while it last.

Oh and boy oh boy, the car is beyond my expectations. A picture here is located here

I will try and get better ones when my digital camera decides to work better, the colours it is giving are rather dull and not what is really seen in real life.

I haven't got my car yet!

I am fuming!  I havent got my bill of lading yet either!  everytime i speak to geoff he insists it will be here tomorrow! 10 days later and i still dont have it.

I'm really upset with this matter. I'm with holding my payment of the storage costs of Japan ($371) until this matter is sorted out. Hopefully will get me some leverage in the matter.

Is anyone else still waiting for there car to get offloaded from freo? I only just got the B/L papers last tuesday. Should hopefully have it by next week after easter. So frustrating and I'm getting so impacient!

I used a custom broker too not an agent. Only paid 150$ inc gst in service fees, every other cost was cost price from customs, even got the invoice from customs address to myself c/o 'Continental Freight Services". Great for a tax right off. [i hope]

The way to go.

I have been having the same problem with Geoff, Tyler.

I finally picked up my car today, a Black Cefiro. I was pissed off it took them so long to ****en get the B/L. alot of bullshit if you ask me.

Just another way to get more cash out of me as far as I see it. Now my cefiro is going to cost me at least 2k more than it should have.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
