hey man, i work at an autodealership as well as sell car parts (mainly coilover systems). i ship all over the USA, Canada, Puerto Rico, ect. i can ship parts to you. just have them shipped to my work and ill ship them out to you (you pay actual shipping of course). i once got a quote to ship a set of coilovers to Spain, but the cost was 350.00 (normally 53.00 in USA) for a 48lb package.

yea, you would have to pay for shipping 2x. seeing your in SE asia, why cant you buy direct from a source in japan for the parts? im sure shipping would be much less. the main reason why the costs are so much greater is because of duty fees and over seas shipping. your country will kill you with the taxes they charge to get out of country parts to you in your country. my best solution would be to try and find a dealer or business that is overseas (near where your located) and purchace from them if that is possible. there are some online business/dealers on ebay that might be able to help you out that are located overseas. also depending on what parts your looking for , the size and weight of the items will also greatly affect the shipping rate. also, the time frame on shipping will most likely kill you. with my estimate in the earlier post about a coilover system shipped to portugal, shipping time was about 4-6 weeks, and then time for customs hold.

from my experiences on buying parts outside your own country, your country will impose a duty fee on the incoming parts based on the value of the part. so if you buy a new part locally, you should not have to pay any additional fees.

good luck man, and i hope you get what you are looking for.
