Hey guys,

I need to organise some transport for my un-registable car from a workshop in Seven Hills, to Melbourne. Does anyone know of any good companies,? time frames?, costs?, etc. I'd like to have it down here in Melbourne sometime during this week.

Had a friend hook me up with a trade plate, but the idea was vitto'ed by the parents :rofl: So yeah, need some truck transport please.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

cheers,

chinny.

if my memory serves me correctly, i had my car trucked from melb to syd with TNT - http://www.tnt.com/country/en_au.html - for about $300 (i think!).. but it was the best price i found!!! i was happy with them! they did an inspection before leaving, and upon arrival to make sure it arrived in the same condition so that made me feel more comfy using them....

i'd like to use companies ppl have used personally themselves, rather than picking a rando out of the yellow pages. but it may come to that.

i rang a place called CarMove(r's?) $440, insurance for fire/theft/collision. But NOT for anything in the car. Ie my Advan Rims (advan tyres) turbo timer, exhaust parts, head unit... etc. So that really sucks... if trucking ppl are as bad as wharfies.

I called TNT just then Moanie, but their car section is closed till Monday.

well, now that i've got RACV Total Care, my parents have let me fly up with a mate to drive it down :rofl:

so it's all sorted!! sorry to get you to reply to a thread which doesn't have much importance anymore :P For "Search" sake, this is what i found out.

CarMover: http://www.cartransport.com.au/

$440 - Syd to Melb. Insurance only for fire, theft, collision, etc. Not on the goods in the car. Need about 24-48 hour notice. 3 trucks leaving Sydney weekly. Door - Door.

Toll: $420, 48 hours notice, 3-4 days delivery time. Not sure bout insurance

SMB (Sydney Melbourne Brisbane): $385 + GST, to not got to depot's in Syd or Melb.

Syd depot to Melb depot $245. $315 from workshop to Melb Depot. $385 syd workshp to Port Melbourne.

Other places haven't contacted. Finemores, TNT Couriers.

cheers,

Thanks Moanie, Silver.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
