I need to do the timing belt and here in Canada the parts run about $900. ?I can get the parts from Greece on Ebay for $500. The waterpump is a Graf and the belt is a Gates.Does anyone have any experience or opinion with overseas parts

I know there is a source over that way that's ok but don't recall the name. A closer option is ID Parts (http://idparts.com/catalog/index.php?fi ... ehicle=124) for $400 + shipping and I'm pretty sure they ship to Canada

Jeepalaktika or something like that, greek guy.

He's dependable but a bit slow.

I would utilize IDParts, they're actually cheaper now.

ID is the only way to go at the moment. Shipping looks expensive at $85 but it is all inclusive so tax, duties, brokerage etc are all covered. In my case HST alone on these parts would have cost $52.

Shipping from Greece could end up costing you a whole lot more in additional fees.

Canada really needs to knock it off with the excessive fees on shipping stuff up there.

Did the USA charge them extra for exporting (and inflicting us with) Beiber or Celine Dion?

Come on now Canada, after the suffering we have to pay for those acts, how aboot a break on the shipping, eh? :jester:

I already know that the border has been sealed against either of them. Gee... Thanks. :furious: :-)r

Now, if you would find the hot-women-factory that produced the likes of Shania and start supplying us with more that look like her, we might be less grumpy about Celine and the annoying girl Beiber. Thinking as a good citizen, if this country had produced Beiber, I think the absolute best place for him to be is "in someone else's country" too... So I can't blame ya canucks too much... You just didn't fling him far enough. :mrgreen:

Hey, nothing much changes. Back in the day the Mother Land used to send criminals and undesirables to the colonies :lol:.

...and don't get me started on cross border shipping :roll:. As far as the concept of free trade and open borders is concerned Europe has leap-frogged over us. It's pretty embarrassing when we can't do as well as a bunch of countries that don't even speak the same languages and have a long history of fighting and hate for each other.
