@Stav - I'll take a look at your site in the future when I consider more upgrades. Currently though, I'm just looking at Unichip just because from what I understand, once you unplug it, there really isn't a trace of it afterwards.
Sure no problem, if you PM me your email I have made our latest version of our FR-S catalouge I can send you.

you are supposed to claim it. if you get caught though i would look up the penalties and see if its worth the risk for the amount of money. in severe cases they could take your car...

car parts are 0% duty and you pay the HST. I brought $9K in parts across once and thats all I paid, we bring $1-4K a month across, never paid duty on anything.

From my experience unless its a vehicle, furs, or alcohol/tobacco you don't deal much with duties, but you will always pay HST if the purchase is over daily limit or whatever the customs agent feels is the limit for that day, have declared $1K on a 15min trip across and was waved thru without paying tax

Sounds like I will just ship to Niagara, and pick it up at the border.

Thanks!

UPS is delivering my Vortech kit (hopefully this week). I'm basically preparing to bend over and pay like 500$ in taxes

Yeah, if there's an option I always choose USPS. Takes a bit longer but comes with no extra fees attached.
