Hey everyone,

I've just agreed to buy some rims off someone in Queensland and was wondering if anyone has ever had rims sent over to Melbourne from Queensland, cash on delivery before?

Any info regarding cost, time, companies etc would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Ali.

Hey there.

Unsure if U have organised anything as of yet but I work for a transport company that will be able to provide transport from QLD to Melbourne but we dont do COD. Not sure if any company's actually does this at all.

If you would like me to do you a quote, please send me a PM with the details of the shipment including your contact details.

Well thats an average price from australian air express who don't offer cod (we move alot of wheels around and they charge us about $30 for every 10 kilo'ish box).. I guess AAE is more corporate and would probably have better rates. Also guessing cod will cost extra so my quote is probably a bit off :(

I can recommend bus freight (www.busfreight.com.au) for large or heavy items. We also have our own courier (Allied Express) and get very good rates for large boxes, if you give me dimensions, postcodes and weight I could get a quote for you.

Are you shipping the wheels with tires?

Australia post to my knowledge is the only company which will do COD.

But you can forget australia post. As a in a box wheel will cube out too much.

I onced used couriers please to do COD, but you can forget that aswell since your sending to QLD.

so your sh!t out of luck with COD.

If you want to just freight up. Try:

TNT, IPEC, AAE, fastway (don't know if they deliver to QLD, maybe only NSW), NQX, etc.

Aviod DHL since its only national and they will charge way too much.

I used STAR TRUCK,

Onced i had 8 rims+tyres transport down from NSW though i don't know how much it costed as i did it through my company :thumbsup:. All you need to do is box them up, STAR TRUCK truck will come around and pick them up.

Do you mean Star Track? If so, they are good and deliver the goods. They have a very good business model and customer service is excellent. :)

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
