Ok, whats 34,000 yen in quids?



£167.32 to you m8,thats cheap for a blitz controller,imho.I pay using PayPal but ithink a c/c will do it.System is: You mail them with your request,he'll mail you back with a quote (in case of currency rate changes),if you then wish to go ahead reply with your paypal details.Goods are sent as gifts-no import duty.

This kinda thing always happens when I try to lend a hand,
I'll be changing address & applying for the witness relocation program then

Something I'm sure you've already thought of: nearly all manuals come in Japanese.I've never found this a big prob as most original manufacturers have English versions on their websites, or a quick search of enthusiast forums will usually find you one

I put in a quote for the Blitz boost controller, but may also order some more bit's and pices.
Bloody camshafts are dirt cheap! I'll have some of those later in the year...


Its a good idea to put all your orders into one block to save on carriage-its air frieghted so size/weight applies.

How long does it take to reply to a sodding E-mail?


He does sometimes take a while to answer.Its worth the wait tho.Once he sends quote,you've paid etc,he'll send an e-mail to say its been dispatched-you'll get it in under a week.
Possibly your part is'nt in stock.
