New to the club in the GTA! 2012 pearly white!
 

Finally traded my 2009 Altima coupe for a real car! So I am welcoming myself to this forum. Welcome. Thanks

A few questions for you in the GTA.

Looking to do K&N Typhooon 69-series intake in the very near future. Where in the GTA is the best place to get? Or where online? Found a site zshop.ca that ships fro Surrey BC. Anyone order from them before? Price is $350 +shipping.

Rather go with a CDN site to avoid UPS and brokage fees. I hate UPS even w/o brokage fees.

Second Q, how do you fit hockey equipment in the car. I've seen a few at the arena so i am guessing it is possible. Maybe its time to man up and scrap the shoulder pads to save some space.

Thanks all! First mods I am looking at is the intake and Stillen CBE.

Welcome!

I'm no help with local sites, I buy everything from the US and ship via USPS or FedEx, rare occasions, UPS.

Any particular sites? I was thinking direct from K&N site or ebay...

I have done a lot of business with Jomer at Fred Beans Nissan. He's a forum sponsor (fbnissan) and treats me good with prices, he'll ship USPS if you ask.

I'm sure other Canadians will chime in with local shops.

hey Big_C, welcome to the forum, and congrats on the Z :tup::tup:

My Z is also in PW, love the color!! Sometimes I get blinded during a car wash, LOL.

Regarding your Qs, I have installed K&N CAI in my Z too, I purchased it from eBay, the seller shipped vis UPS, so I had to pay some duty, but not much, after all the tax and stuffs, it is still cheaper than buy it in Canada... :ugh2:

Not that I don't want to support our local, but the difference on the price is about $150.... :wtf2: So you know what I mean...

You mention in your post that you can get it for $350+S&H, how much is the S&H? And do you have to pay HST on top of that?? Don't just look at the item price but the ground total, cos that's the final $$$ you have to pay....

Most of the time I ordered stuffs from eBay, as long as it is a trustworthy seller and the price is right, usually it's much cheaper than Canadian retail....

For some seller, you can ask them to ship with USPS, it is very dependable too :tup::tup:

anyway, congrats on your ride and GL with you mod, anything you can search in the forum or just ask around in here, ppl in this forum are very very nice... :tup::tup:

But, make sure use the "search" button first before you want to start any thread asking something.... :tup::tup:

Talk to you soon.!

Thanks man! Yea I used to mod my 03 tiburon back in the day and would ebay or use forum help. I PM'd a few of the sponsors here ($379 shipped was the best so far) also saw zstore.com and it's $300 there. I am inquiring on shipping, as well as a carbon fiber fang cover (anyone have this?) I don't want to go crazy modding it since I am not 19 anymore, but minor cosmetic to make it stand out.

3 weeks in and I have 2400km!!

Hi

I have ordered from EVO-R before (assuming that's the brand of fang cover you're looking at) price was good, but the quality of the product was bad. Then I had to chase them down for a refund, they would not send a replacement part to cover the manufactured defect. Having said that, there is a forum supporter who sells EVO-R products. I would buy from them if you really want it, they have better customer support from what I've heard. Just can't remember the forum supporter, might be "the Z store"?

:worthless:

But congrats on the purchase!

BTW I may be parting out my Stillen CBE very soon. Would you be interested to buy a used one?

:worthless:

:p

Hurry your arse back to Canada!! lol!
