Finally, about 3 weeks after paying the dosh, got my goods today from takakaira.com . All expertly packed and in one piece thankfully.

Paid less tax than I thought I was going to as well!! Which was an unexpected bonus!

I got an Apex AVC-R Boost Controller, HKS SQV BOV Kit, plus a Nismo Radiator Cap and Trust Oil Cap (they'll look nice when I clean up the rest of the engine http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/smile.gif ) And paid considerably less than UK retail.

Just thought I'd let y'all know.

Paul, the oil cap was roughly £37 and the radiator cap £22 + whatever shipping is for those two items.

Not bad eh?

Shipping shouldn't be much on light items like that. A tip is to ask if they can tell you what they will use as the "shipping value" for the goods. This is what good ole Customs & Excise will charge Duty + VAT on. It SHOULD be less than the amount you paid http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/wink.gif http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/wink.gif

I ordered my Nismo gear knob about a week ago and they said 7 days for delivery.

Hopefully it should arrive soon?

I think it cost about £30 for the Leather Nismo jobbie.

Just wait until you try and take off the oilcap when its hot, Nathan has an ally Nismo oilcap and it gets fooking hot. http://300zx.co.uk/200sx/ubb/eek.gif
