I'm looking at getting one soon too. At the moment, I'm looking at getting it from ClubRSX online store. They're approx. AU$550 shipped to your door. Still looking around though.
Keep us posted!

Yeah but you will have to play 10% GST + other duty if it comes via freight/sea/air (which is how ClubRSX would ship) . Damn customs!! hehehe
Customs would not collect duty and/or GST where:
the value of the goods does not exceed $1000 for goods imported by post or $250 for goods imported air/sea cargo, other than by post; and the Customs duty and/or GST liability of the goods does not exceed $50.
If you can get a US supplier to send it via post(which may be possible) then you would pay no GST or duty! ;)
p.s International postage on a bulky item would be expensive too..?

if the sender marks the item as a gift, worth $50 or something like that on the declaration, then it should pass through without incurring any taxes. Unless the item is very bulky and they open it up, then you should be safe.

I don't know much about importing other than what I have read on customs website, but isn't it ilegal to do stuff like that? How would you get the reseller to mark the item as a gift? Sounds a bit sus to me :cool:

Jeff (Tofu) is in the process of getting one from the US. AFAIK, it's on its way already. It should arrive within the next couple of weeks. He should know a bit more about it.

Why not support Australian distributors with the proper warranty paths?
Just pay a few extra dollars for piece of mind.
All my parts have been sourced from Aussie's - and I have had to send a couple back for fixes, without issue.

got a price there for the DC5 base auto? :D
and yes, peace of mind and after sales support is a lot more important than price imo, especially if you're going to put that thing into something that has cost you many thousands of dollars.
Tofu doesnt happen to drive an Auto Blue DC5 does he?
I saw one of these Injen CAI being fitted to a blue DC5 on the weekend (at a workshop) but it didn't fit

he drives a auto white dc5 up in brissy. There's another claim of the Injen CAI not fitting on the base auto too... :S
hmm...yah...my car is white
guess we'll just have to wait and see about my cai when it gets here...

Base model DC5 CAI kits are priced the same, though slightly different.
No listing is given for a secificly automatic base model variant.
so there's only a difference between the R and the base?
