i got my stuff in about a week + day or so customs

Answer: It took 9 weeks, but that was because they put on a sticker saying "Surface Freight Only". I complained after 8 weeks, and they send them again. This time they came by air and took 8 days. Both arrived within 4 days of each other.

Hi.

I ordered some Mobil M1 oil filters from the US 8 weeks ago.  They were shipped by Priority Post.  They still haven't arrived.  

Any idea how long this sort of delivery should take?  I was expecting 2 weeks or less.

Thanks,

James

Sorry, I was a little unclear. I have now received the original delivery and the replacements.

I complained after 8 weeks. The US company re-sent them.

The original delivery arrived 4 days after I complained.

The replacement delivery arrived another 4 days after that.

In total, the original delivery took 9 weeks. The replacements took 8 days.

I believe the original delivery took so long because they put some stupid sticker on it saying it could only be sent be surface transport (ie, it had to come by sea freight).

I reckon this is an example of integrity by the company. As soon as I complained, they reshipped without question. It is also an example of stupidity, but lots of people do stupid things. Not many have the integrity to correct them without an argument.

If you're interested, they are AutoZone. They have LOTS of stuff available at reasonable prices. I would recommend them (but I'd also recommend you specify air freight :aroused: )

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
