Hi people of Perth,

I am trying to get some information to import a big quantity(10-20 pieces)(prices of product is unknown at this stage) of new aftermarket parts from overseas.

Just keen to know what are the procedures before going on with this project.

Anyone has ever been through the importing process before?

What are the rules, regulation, taxes, permits etc etc. Just need to understand more about the Western Australian law on importing products from overseas.

Thanking all in advance and all advices will be much appreciated.

CHeers!

Regards,

clement

ps: if this project goes through, i might even do a group buy in SAU. :D

Me and a mate of mine are actually trying to get some for ourselves first.

Try it on our car and see if it is as good as what people has been raving about.

Right now, I am wondering what needs to be done at the Custom and also the taxes that will sting me.

With the amount of quantity that i am planning to bring in, most probally fill it up as business import.

(or can i just put it under personal use?) less tax? lol

Yer best thing for you to do is go to a Frieght Fowarding company and get them to bring it in for you i use to work at one so i can help you get a cheap price

- Saves you with all the headaches and fighting

i have got a container which will be coming into Perth mid January next year.

There will be some other stuff inside but i have not deal with parts for vehicles before.

Hence the questions.

thanks Ricca, will contact you soon.

    • Behrman is great quality stuff. My 34 has some serious clouding as well but I’m too nervous to try and replace the glass myself so I haven’t bought them yet. 
    • This might be true if you live in NZ but I can't see how this could be true for us locals here.  I've found the customer support for Haltech to be absolutely amazing. I've turned up to Haltech and spent entire days with their tech support guys, they've even helped me with wiring dramas that had nothing to do with their products.  They have the best customer support of any company I've dealt with, I can't imagine how my experiences with them could possibly be any better.
    • If you want to do a single throttle body conversion easily, you won't need to pull anything apart. Take the linkage from your throttle off the linkage controlling the ITBs. Now open the ITBs wide open, and lock the linkages in said position. Now add a single throttle body onto the front of your inlet plenum. No it's not ideal for the last nth of a kw, but it'll be a lot better than what you're already trying to do...   PS, ITBs can be so damn hard to tune from, because roughly 20% movement in a throttle body equates to a change in roughly 80% of its flow (Hence power). When you add up the flow limitations of those small throttle bodys, it is a LOT higher than that of a single large throttle. Hence, TPS is very very sensitive with them, and you do a LOT of work with sensor fusion, and some Maths behind the scenes to make those blends nice, and be smooth.
    • Yep, when Haltech purchased Adaptronic, and all of the Adaptronic staff, including Andy went with it, it took Haltech to the next level. Haltech wanted Adaptronic as they wanted things like Andy's fuel models, and some other IP, AND they wanted Andy too as he is brilliant! Andy has spoken about the incompatibilities between the old 1500 stuff vs Nexxus, and it totally makes sense. It's not JUST software that is different, there is huge changes in the underlying hardware too. It's why Haltech has had soooo many changes in the last couple of years, in terms of Hardware, and Software, and why it has become so damn Amazing. Why do you think guys like Rob Dahm with his quad rotor, went from running Adaptronic's to running Haltechs? Andy. Pretty much, Haltech these days, is Adaptronic, but with more funds behind it, and more staff, and hence Andy's visions, and visions of other people that he helps shape their great visions, into amazing new products. All the new Nexxus gear, whole new software for it, new and better dashboards, the apps that will run on headunits and NOT be slow to respond! I understand people being burnt in the past, but if you're ragging on a company, about products and issues from many years ago, it's more a reflection on yourself, not looking or keeping up with new stuff. In which case, those people should be going back to PowerFC and Nistunes as the ECU's to rave on about...
