I've used them and can recommend them. I liked how you can track where your item is through their site

a few mates have used them. Extremely long delivery time. One is still waiting on a part which has taken 3 MONTHS! After numerous follow-up emails they stress that its on the way, but 3 months is a little bit much for my liking Suprised

The other mate bought a RX7 FD part and received an FC part, obviously completely different and had to wait ages to get the correct part.

If you can find the same part locally for a similar price, id go local.

The real advantage with dealing through these types of guys is avoiding the duty and gst when it comes through, however having spoken to the guys who work for customs at the auspost depots where all this stuff comes through, they know these companies and they will open every package and then hop on their website to check the value. If it's over the $1k aud threshold (they include the postage cost in this) they will ask for bank statements to support he declared price, or just straightup tell you that the dutiable value is *X* amount and then you have to get a formal customs entry done through a broker, usually costing $125 ON TOP of the import duty and gst.

Long story short, check with your favourite importer on a price before you go down this route as it can often work out the same, but with all duties and gst included Smile

If you get multiple stuff at once, they pack it together and save on postage $_$

A guy over on the UK site swears by them, I've not used them personally, but I wouldn't have any qualms in doing so from the reports I've seen about them. Delivery times to the UK has been good from what I have seen and the parts cheap.

Yep, well........just some silastic on the thread and then over the top. So far it is working fine without any leak.

Yes it does and be careful not to over tighten it! I rubbed a bit of silastic around the worm screw and inside the thread trying not to get too much inside the pipe. I then 'filled in' the rest with silastic so that it ended up being flush on the outside. In other words, you can't see the screw anymore and you would have to cut the silicone out to get to the screw. I figure I am not really ever going to use it so that's what I did.

If you don't seal it with something, it WILL leak.
