    Shipping from nz

    Anyone have any tips for having things shipped from new Zealand/australia? Like what company is the cheapest, who tends to lose things, etc?

    Send Lunacy a PM - he's in New Zealand and I've gotten 2 things shipped from him. He should be able to help!

                  its expensive and a pain in the ass... and not really worthwhile unless you're over 300whp

                      full kit is $1850 plus outrageous shipping, and that doesnt include the transmission, shifter assembly, shifter cables, axles, etc etc

                        Skuce has shipped from there quite a bit, I think.

                        Also bought from Lunacy and was very reasonable.

                          Hey guys just thought I would drop a line and say that I am able to get parts for anyone if needed. I have a few large wrecking places close to where I am living and can get most parts, bumpers, sideskirts, turbos, interior, engine parts, gtx/gtr ecu's, gtx/gtr afm's, looms, injectors and so on, you name it I could probably locate it.


                          As for exporting to the US are you guys able to import any cars or do they have to meet new impact laws? Have airbags and so on?

                          If anyone is worried about dealing with someone not in the country I am more than willing to deal with a middle man, club president or someone high up in the moderator list.

                            Yeah. The biggest things were a spoiler and the rear filler panels of a TX3.

                            Pain in the ass for sure! I'm STILL trying to get a rear Laser KF/KH bumper to no avail

                            Usually everything came Pack"N"Send and then transfered to Purolater when it got into Canada.
