Martin,

    There are wins and losses.  Basically in the  AUD market there are savings on freight and insurance is possibly unnecessary.  However I cop the freight components of parts from the USA which is horrendous.  The same article cost double to get it freighted back from the USA as what it costs from OZ  to the US.  However that is all my problem, so a quick cost in OZ would be around $7000.  I apologise for that cost,  But it is what it is.  I am aware that an engine controller costs about half that, which all adds to the cost.  Regards, Neil.
