Caz racing is down and I'm not sure where to buy Z parts from now. Search wasn't being too helpful with this... I was told concept z performance but this is USA and a bit pricey on shipping. Any suggestions?
IMO, if you bulk buy/get on board someones bulk buy from coz or Z1 (both major parts suppliers in the US) you will get a FAR better price than you could ever get from suppliers here. Occasionally you can get decent second hand parts from members at good prices but coz and z1 are the way to go!:zlove:
They where more expensive I dont mind having an Australian site being more.. I dont want to wait weeks for shipping anyway lol.
Really? I just had a sizeable order (20kg worth of parts) with z1 in the states, took 3 business days to get it from Carrolton,GA to country Victoria on standard Fedex. The majority of that was waiting for it to be moved from Sydney to Melbourne....
The american sites are hard to beat, Coz and Z1 are where i by alot of my own parts from and encourage my customers to. I have been buying and stocking alot more fast moving parts, gaskets, seals and hoses for example to try and fill caz'z shoes for the people who need parts in a hurry. I often have people looking for timing belt crank sprockets and things like that. I can express post so parts arrive in 1 to 2 days. BUT, i cannot match the american prices and never expect to.
oh ok, So is one place faster than the other :S I guess I'll stock up on the same items and add shipping then just compare prices. Thanks guys.
Coz is MUCH easier to deal with via email!.....& order via the ConceptZ website! Z1 generally needs for you to call them to make sure your order gets placed/processed etc?.......which means international calls to the US!
Interesting you should ask that question I placed and order with both COZ and Z1 within 10 minutes of each other about three weeks ago. I got an email confirmation that both places had shipped what I wanted the same day, about 6 hours apart. Z1 posted using Fedex, took 6 days to arrive, COZ used US Postal Service which arrive yesterday, took about three weeks after I ordered. I general prefer COZ cause they have slightly more stuff, but Z1 has a second hand parts section which COZ doesnt have as far as I can see. They are relatively similar in selection and prices so once you use both you will obviously have a preferred supplier and do most of your business throught them. I have probably made 2 orders at coz for every 1 at Z1.
Thanks a lot man. Didn't think anyone would actually know I'll place my order Edit: Also, 1989 TT z, J spec... I order 1990-1993 parts right?
http://www.zcentre.co.uk/ Coz and Z1 and AMS are all great, ordered through them a lot, but unless your buying heaps of stuff you do get assraped in the shipping department cost side of things.
lol, I just placed an order -_- $56 shipping for belts, 2 hoses, clips, thermostat and some connectors.
