That does not even include and Canadian taxes, duties or fees but is just shipping. Having something shipped from the US is the worst of all with charges up to $100. In this age of online purchases these charges can be a killer for a project.

I meant in country when I talked about component sourcing. They have a lot of performance companies there, just don't know about FA20 specific parts, or machine shop costs or anything. Obviously shipping is the worst part worldwide. I have shipped parts to Canada before and they'll pay more in shipping then the part cost sometimes. I did a front end swap on an old car and bought parts from holden Australia and it wasn't too bad in shipping, just parts cost.... but thats coming to the US, not from.
