rallispec Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 I installed mine this past weekend --- i dont really notice it when driving through town, but i notice on the hard turns the car has a much higher tendancy to oversteer than it used too. I'm going to have to re-adjust my tire pressures again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetAwayDriver Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Waiting for mine to arrive. AVO was back ordered but evidently my account is charged and the part is in and ready to be shipped. I have an EMS number but nothing is registering. The part was scheduled to ship on June 20, does anyone know how long it takes for the tracking number to register on EMS. I have checked a few times and I can't draw a status. I emailed AVO and PMed Mr. Hansen. This is my first time ordering from an Aussie/Japanese based supplier. I apologize if I am acting impatient. Just wanted to know if anyone else experienced similar lags. Thank you. Can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are really quick about shipping however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy05 Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Did you guys try USPS.com??? That's where I had to pick my stuff up and I swore I could track it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetAwayDriver Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Well, Paul Hansen responded to my PM very promptly, and said he would check into it. Just not sure how this really works. Thanks for the input. I'll throw the number into USPS and see what I get back, if anything. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRS Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 I've tracked my shipments from AVO here: EMS Trace. From what I recall, it did take a while (maybe a day?) for the info to first show up in the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GetAwayDriver Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 I just received a shipping confirmation from Ross Great service from AVO. You'd think they were located right in the States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSiWRX Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 I used to do *_A LOT_* of shopping from Japan and Hong-Kong in my other hobby. EMS tracking isn't all that great - just imagine USPS tracking on a "time delay." Remember that they are ahead of us by anywhere from 12 to 13 hours, and that they often have different holidays, all of which can easily hold-up tracking. Additionally, tracking tends to break-down between courrier pickup and the different ports-in/out (i.e. Customs on both ends). More often than not, my packages arrived *_before_* EMS tracking by one, if not two days. Don't sweat EMS tracking too much. -A <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almondcookie Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 I didn’t have much issues. My bar actually showed up in 4 days. Not to mention on a Sunday morning. I was eating and hear someone banging on the front door. The postal person was like .. Here. Umm why you banging on my door at 9am on a Sunday? But it was cool though. "other" hobby? I was thinking about using EMS and a couple carriers in HK to bring back some airsoft stuff but I don't think US customs likes seeing replica firearms. =/.

TSiWRX Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 almondcookie, GREAT GUESS, brother! Yes, airsoft indeed. I haven't been active in a while, but used EMS very, very frequently about two years ago - probably once-per-month shipments of replicas. You might want to check some airsoft Forums for current regs as well as curent enforcement habits - the latter of which seems to fluctuate quite a bit. Heck, even taxation varied quite a bit! I'd just as often get hit as I wouldn't. Go figure. On a side note, if you're looking to buy, I'm looking to sell - I've got a lineup of high-end stuff, most of which have seen litle to no skirmish use, so drop me a PM if you're interested. -A <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almondcookie Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Puhaha. That's awesome. I'll send you a PM. To stay on topic: The bar is great. EMS is wonderfully delayed. You'll get your stuff undamaged. Buy it. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbolen Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Ordered mine on the 17th. Still says "pending". Cheers, dave Drive softly and carry big torque! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rony Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Ordered mine the 14th and my order is still pending.. They said they where getting some in on Monday, apparently they got a lot of orders.. That's a good thing for them, a bad thing for those of us waiting. My Car vBGarage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedd Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 I just ordered mine this afternoon. My ion springs should arrive around the same time. Less roll=:O) Tick tock tick tock... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rony Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Update: Finally found the time to install my JDM Rear Sway bar and AVO end links. The whole thing took me only 1 and 1/2 hours. What a difference, wow!!! On take off the car no longer squats like a chick pissin in the woods!! A lot less body roll on the turns, it rocks!!! I was worried that the 20mm JDM bar wouldn't be enough, well, I was wrong, it is. I also liked the adjustable endlinks from AVO, I went with the longer one as suggested on there site, worked like a charm. Thanks to the AVO crew for selling to us accross the pond.
