So far, I found out shipping for 90210 CA and still have to wait for others.  This is for to the door delivery.
USD $60 per Cubic Meter (3ft by 3 ft by 3 ft)
or
USD $60 per 360kg, whichever one comes first

Plus
USD$30 per Cubic Meter local fee
and USD$35 for documents
Plus a little for packaging.
Takes 15-16 days max, by ship.

You have to find out about tax, but it shouldn't be much.

What do you guys think?  I called another shipping company to ask for prices as well, and they should get back to me soon.

Doesn't the gov't have the right to kill you on import taxes because you are acting as your own importer?

I shipped a muffler to canada once, and the guy ended up paying more on customs taxes than what he paid for the damn muffler...hopefully u can find out before somebody gets fucked by customs with their pants on

I asked about tax on Engine (2000cc), rims, brakes, and they were all 2.5%.  So it's pretty cheap.  So I will find out about everything else.
