I've used quadratec before got set of axles off them & i would fully recomend them as the frieght was only $100 aus & deliverd to me in 7 days.plus buying with credit card over phone is ok to as they delete all info after the purchuse i know this as talking to the guy on the phone after i had orderd i wanted to add another item & i had to give my details again
alot of the time if you import stuff on a one off basis the customs guys let it go through unless you are the unlucky person they do a random check on then yes you'll pay all the bullshit but the bulkyer the item there more likly to check as i said before al my items were under $1000 aus but my mate imports race parts & he has to get them (company overseas) to gift wrap to avoid taxes & all the other expenses
If it's over $1000 in value of the goods most times it WILL get stopped. (don't confuse the $1000 by including the cost of shipping).
Break the $1k barrier and even if it comes through USPS/AustPost you will get pinged and it's not just the costs but the BS forms & shyte......
Also would you like me to quote you the part of the act that states gifts are NOT GST exempt ? Otherwise my next bunch of pallets will have a set of big ribbons
sorry wooders i didn't explain that well, my mate doesn't import for bussiness he buys goods from the states for his own race car, the items he buys are like fuel injection & nozzles stuff that is over $1000 but small enough to conseal as a gift.a pallet of gear would look suspious wrapped up or you have some friends that buy cool pressies,hey don't get me wrong i'm not arguing with you wooders just letting you know what me mates told me & he could be wrong as he hasn't bought anything for a while
How long has the gift ruling been in was that amended in aug 2006 with the rest cause the gift thing was rife in the speedway arena for a while & i keep fogetting i've been out of speedway for over 5 years & haven't really had anything to do with the ordering of the parts as it was my mates car not mine if thats the ruling and has been like that forever just shows why i got out of speedway (the bullshitters out do the honest)cheers for the info as i was thinking on ordering some more parts and do it as one order but i might break it up to keep it under $1000
Once that kind of gear is more readily available in Oz we will get a JK but for now we will stick to my TJ.
But definately get it dude!!! It's only money!! Cant take it with you when ya die!! (Well thats my /our philophsy)
I totally agree Manxie!
I'll be getting it shortly, tho I'm still deciding on whether or not to go all out and get the more expensive mopar bar with the winchmount addon... I haven't done any wheeling yet, but it was the whole reason that I bought this Jeep for in the first place, and definatly will be... so still trying to decide if it would be worth the extra investment for the future... any suggestions?
