First are you shipping it ground? second more fee's apply usually when heading over to Canada, and 3rd they dont usually just put it in an envelope bc if it gets lost there is no T/N to locate it, so it would be there loss and prob your complaining on not getting it. It saves there back in a way. See if AMS has that bushing since they are in your country.

I have no idea how you fit thru doors with a brain that large. :confused: Such a burden bestowed upon you!!!

bbecker17, have you called Z1? Perhaps they could put it in a padded envelope and send it for a few bucks. I know you can, I've done it. But some companies might not have a USPS pick up regularly. If they b**** about it, take your business elsewhere.

SPL Parts also offer bronze shifter bushings. Might want to call them, another forum sponsor, before going elsewhere. So does Importpartspro.com

If they're just OEM bushings, order them from any Nissan dealer near you.

Im not "up there" but i do agree.....Z1 can rip you off on shipping sometimes, even in the states, and watch courtesy parts too, sometimes they will do this, they will 10-20 bucks for a fuse or something small like that.

Hey guys, anyone know what the shipping is like on a NA - TT parts package is like from z1 to nova scotia Canada? I'm thinking between 1000-1500 cause that's about what it costs to ship a car across country.

See, I have never gotten ripped off from Z1 with their shipping charges. I have ordered things from a short block all the way down to a gasket. I live in Utah, which is pretty far from GA. I guess it all depends on where you live, delivery routes, across an international border, which company they decide to ship though, etc... Not to be a d!ck, but if I lived in another country... I would expect shipping to be a bit more expensive due to Customs and crap. I will admit that $52.xx is a bit high for shipping on a shifter bushing, but I'm sure there are other sources you can use.

z1 ships with fedex ground which has a minimum fee regardless of what you order. I do agree it sucks but I know someone on 3zc who ordered new orings for his calipers from them and got charged like $11 bucks for shipping for something that weighs nothing. Either eat shipping cost or order from somewhere else like stated. I know coz has been willing to work on shipping cost with small items like that in the past for people.
