Hi ppl,

I have some items from japan being held at custom. I am looking around yellowpages and I dont know who I should use as my custom broker.

Could anyone please recommend one? How much would it cost for the service? This is my first time doing this, so wouldnt have a clue.

And Yes, I have use search function but nothing really specifically address my question.

Thanks

umm..

you don't need a broker, custom will contact you if they require you to play tax, if not custom will check it over and if everything is ok you should get it within a week or so just depends how long custom wants to hold it for or how busy they are... i had one item held for about 2weeks they must have just been busy..

Thanks for the input [Michael]

They sent me some forms to fill up...but they require me to register to get a Declaration ID (for example: ABN, CCID (custom client identification ID), or Client activity Centre No. (CAC)) first...

is that the normal procedure?

The items all add up more than A$1000...

also, can i just go to the custom office and settle everything down over there and collect my items? Anyone know where is the office? tried to look at their website but nothing much there.

did you get a registering as a member form (something like that), if so fill that out and fill it out for the supplier, and with the declaration dont neet to worry about the abn ccid etc. you can fill out the registering form on the behalf of the supplier. with the supplier just fill out all you know, with mine one did i just put down a name and e mail. also it will help if you give them reciet of your purchase and proof of payment and also your ID like you drivers license.

if need any help just ask i just done mine for my bride seats, got mine off greenline

i know all my items which were stop in custom where over in Melbourne, never in perth.

as flash89 said proof of amount paid on the item is important, if you paid by bank transfer go to the bank and get a transcript of the transaction. As they may (i can't remember) ask you to prove the amounted paid is the amount of the ems form. OR most likly it just you have to pay tax as the order was over $1000

also i just just reading over again you said that if all the items add up to $1000, thought it was only if one item was over $1000 that you might have to pay dutys etc

if you have all the items ship together, then i believe its the total value of all the items

I have my items shipped separately (each item has their own article number/tracking number).

also, the sender actually marked them as gift.

One of the items has actually been delivered. The rest were held in the custom :thumbsup:

i am guessing it is all in one box cause i ordered the bride seats with rails all in one hit with mine. got the rails but seats got stopped in customs also i got coil overs aswell and they were 1400ish and they didnt get stopped by customs but i am guessing cause they were in two boxes. wouldnt hurt to ask about it.

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      By PotatoCake 路 Posted

      Yeh... literally every time i jump on a forum, see an instagram post or see an engine bay at a car show, i get an idea and add it to my 'to do' list. So what started off as, hey can u just make a couple of intake hard pipes because my dumbass bought the wrong apexi kit, blew out into a 2 week job including braided brake lines & custom bash kit for the front lip haha.  Getting Luke from A4E engineering to make a full custom exhaust with a controllable aes dump valve so i can actually switch between quiet and loud, because right now its just loud all day every day. Then after that go and get the tune redone flex e85 & 98 as i get bugger all milage from e85, makes going for longer drivers difficult

      Car looks clean as. You ended up getting quite a bit done 馃槀  So what's the plan for the exhaust?

      Rb25det vs Rb25de rods and crank are same?

      By GTSBoy 路 Posted

      The only Neo rods that were any different to any other RB25 rods were the DET ones, and they were the same as RB26. Here is a Neo DET rod. O5U part number visible. Here is a post in a thread here on SAU with evidence from someone who has done this before. There are photos in the thread of normal RB25 rods.

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      By joshuaho96 路 Posted

      Sure, but why assume that will be the case forever? And why assume you'll be able to do an oil change to swap back to a stock drain bolt before that happens? And does it even matter when I change the oil at fairly short intervals? Life can be funny sometimes and unexpected things can happen. Like breaking a collarbone so you can't do any work on your car for a few months but the oil change is due so you have to take it to somewhere and hope they don't do something stupid like stacking the new drain plug washer on top of the old one.

      Do u know how to identify the rods are rb25 or neo ones? Can u look into the pics and tell me is they de or de neo ones. Its confusing becoz my motor has de neo head but block is 25de 75t, so really confusing me about rods, crank.
