I've had the same paperwork and duties issue when shipping to Australia, Nick.

Was ibkevin just making a "crock" joke about Australia?

I've had the same problem shipping international as Nick does - Not doing it anymore!

Hey Nick, do you still have these? I would love to pick them up and upgrade my moms 86 N/A to 951 brakes.

Any other parts you need to get rid of? I can think of a million little things I need..

To put 951 brakes on a 944 (on the front) you need the 951 spindles as well. For the back however I think they are straight bolt-ons.

Nick, do you have a passenger side door handle with microswitch that you could ship to Miami, FL 33133?

I only need the bracket that holds the microswitch to the handle (to the right in the pic) which could be sent as a letter, but it's your call whether you'll part the handle or not.

And struts from a late 944 (87-onward) or turbo.

For the rear they bolt up but you need the bolts and the spacers/washers from a 951 for the caliper to align properly with the rotor.

huh. Im just trying to figure out why you had to pay duties. USPS seems to be able to ship stuff w/o duties but if you do fedex/ ups overseas they have to pay duties for shipping. I just shipped a shortblock to austrailia and believe me i know about duties- cost about $1000 to ship w/ duties.
