Are there any forum members, or does anyone know of anyone trustworthy in the USA that could help me get some car parts over to Australia.

The seller only sells locally and won't let me get it picked up.

Thanks

Jason

There's a complete supercharger setup off an 03 Cobra that I need to organise to get shipped back.

Seller will only post to USA, so I needed someone to accept the delivery and then onsend it to me.

Have spoken to Barry at length re the kit. He will be supplying the rest of the parts required as well as getting the mods to the manifold done.

Looked into this but the blokes not overly keen. Has been mucked around before.

Option 3 is sending it to Steig and having it ported then having them send it back.

Thanks guys.
