If we can get it for $1500 delivered I'm in :)

Those guys who have recently purchased the supra brake kit will be spewing! :P

Can't say I'm spewing :P

Paid 1050NZD all up for my supra 4 pot kit including adapters and spacers. Where as those are 1500USD + 245USD for shipping per kit which is 3,055.76 NZD. For a package of that value customs will charge 12.5% making it 3437.73 including gst as well as around 40NZD in customs fees on top of the gst bringing it to around 3500NZD. Then there's also labor for fitting them if you can't do it yourself and brake fluid as well. Say 2 hours labor at $65 per hour and 2 bottles of motul race fluid at $40 per bottle so could potentially add another $340 onto the price of importing for installation. Then once they're all installed they need to be certified at $300-$400 depending the certifier in your area.

So all up (approximately and assuming $400 for compliance):

Wilwood-
$4240 installed by a workshop and complied
$4110 self installation and complied

Supra-
$1580 installed by a workshop and complied
$1450 self installation and complied


Personally I'd rather pay a 3rd of the cost of Wilwood 4 pots for my supra ones :)

Although, having said that the 2 piece rotors are complete badass :)

Personally I'd rather pay less than a 3rd of the cost of Wilwood 4 pots for my supra ones :)

Ahh yes, true that. So $300-$400 on top of both the wilwoods and supra kits. Will edit my post above to reflect certification.

Hey is there a sydney based Supra Big brake owner who could come over one weekend and try on my rims to see if they will clear the brakes.

I actually already have the calipers, just dont want to go to the trouble to fit them to find they wont go over my rims.

It's easy to get around taxes in Oz you declare the items as used goods or clearance items and with a value of $500.

Supra BBK are $1150 NZD + $50 P&H & $80 for adapters and your looking @ $1280 NZD $1000 AUD (add in another $150 for P&H to Oz and its $1150 AUD)

Supra BBK Price

The wilwood BBK with 2 piece rotors (both calipers & rotors will be lighter and the 2 piece rotor design allows for a more efficient heat dissipation then the supra 1 piece items) and brake lines will cost $2484 NZD ($1941 AUD)

Add in the fact the Supra BBK doesnt have brake lines which are worth $200 nzd means when these are added to the supra bbk it's $1480 nzd ($1350 AUD extra P&H costs to Oz included)

Posted Image $1350 AUD- $1611K NZD

V'S

Posted Image $1941 AUD - $2484NZD

For me the extra $600 spent on the 4 pot wilwood BBK would be worthwhile especially when you compare this to an equivalent BBK like the Greddy BBK its a fkn steal

Greddy BBK

Greddy BBK $3K USD + 250 P&H
Posted Image $4427 AUD (Wilwood 6 pot BBK is $2310)

Yeah I guess Oz is a bit different. Customs are clamping down hugely here for under declared packages at the moment and they don't hesitate to open the package to check invoices or have a look around the internet to find prices.

I guess I may have been lucky in picking up my full brake kit with the figs adaptors and wheel spacers and shipping for $1050nzd. I'm also not changing my brake lines which is saving me that additional cost.

I'd love the wilwoods but even for my application I just can't justify the additional costs for getting them into NZ

I sent them a quick email and for a group buy of 5 units and they said.

Quote:
 

Best we can do is $1215 for the 4 piston kits, $1485 for 6 piston. Shipping
is approx $250/kit US Priority Mail.


Which is just under $2,000 Australian shipped


Also if you go the TRD options the price from toyota comes too $1745nz

From The current price list off Rutherford & Bond Toyota
Front Right Hand Caliper $365.00 $35.00
Front Left Hand Caliper $365.00 $35.00
Front Caliper Fitting Kit $45.00 Free
Front Right Hand Rotor (TRD Cross Drilled & Slotted) $280.00 $45.00
Front Left Hand Rotor (TRD Cross Drilled & Slotted) $280.00 $45.00
Front Brake Pad Set (TRD Black - Street & Track) $225.00 $25.00
Totals NZ Dollars $1,560.00 $185.00
$1,745.00 nz dollars


Best to ship them individual kits to try avoid customs + the weight would be a killer aswell.
