Qld Imports now have the GaugeFace hardware available for sale in Australia.

$295…Express Posted TO YOU Anywhere in Australia

Prize is 1 GaugeFace unit plus postage to your address anywhere in Australia

GaugeFace now available

We love the nostalgic potato-potato-ness of our Harley-Davidsons, but a GaugeFace injects a dose of technology to the equation by gleaning information from the engine ECU and displaying it on an iPhone or iPod.

The $295 GaugeFace package comes with a cable that connects the bike's data diagnostics port and an app which enables tachometer, engine temperature, gear indicator, signal indicator, and speed information to be displayed.
The system is compatible with 2001 or newer Harleys equipped with EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection) based Delphi ECUs, though 2011 Softail models might not work, since they use a new data connector. The kit doesn't include mounting hardware, but RAM Mounts are recommended for those wishing to create a virtual dashboard.

Qld Imports – Flood Update 23 Jan 2011

Again thanks to everyone for their good wishes in relation to the recent Queensland Flooding.

We had about 300mm of water in the yard – it all came up through the drains. We had moved everything to higher ground as the predictions were that the peak would be about a metre higher than the level that actually occurred. Luckily, it didn't sit there for too long so the mud and gunk didn't have time to settle too much and the clean up was relatively easy.

But with the rain etc, we are on our third skip bin of rubbish but are back to work as normal.

Keep those Harleys coming  

We have prepared a pack for anyone interested in importing a Harley Davidson through Qld Imports and this is available at www.importaharley.com or send us an email and we'll send you one straight back. This sets out in easy steps the procedures to go through to help you import a Harley as easily as possible. (it is also applicable to other motorcycles).

We have also formalised and confirmed pricing so ask for our price list before you import a Harley.

Qld Imports – Flood Update

Thanks everyone who has offered to help us at Qld Imports move if we need to. So far, we have been OK and I doubt the water will rise enough to really affect us. However, we are taking things seriously and are sonsidering all warnings and information we can get.

Unfortunately, it is difficult to get anything that is really meaningful! Saying that it will be higher than 1974 is no help at all. If they would say something like " In 1974 the peak flood at the port office was X metres and we expect this flood to reach Y m and at the momement the level is Z m" we could do our own estimation on what may happen.

For those who have never visited us, we are at the lower end of the street and, if necessary, have high ground close by we can move things to if necessary without having to go any lower.

Meanwhile, anyone who can whip up 30 sets of water wings to suit Softails, please give me a call.

Need them by Thursday!

(Just kidding).

 

Qld Imports

 

Queensland Imports Pty Ltd (Qld Imports) operates under the Registered Automotive Workshop Scheme (RAWS) which allows companies to import used vehicles and comply them to Australian requirements. These vehicles can then be registered in any state.

See therawsblogg.com for more information.

Qld Imports location

Qld Imports workshop is in West End in Brisbane, conviently located near Southbank and the CBD.

We don't sell cars or motorcycles yet but are more than happy to purchase on your behalf and arrange shipping to Australia and Customs Clearance when your vehicle arrives. We will then modify the vehicle to meet Government requirements (and your own if it is a campervan) and supply a Queensland Safety Certificate if needed. Qld Imports can also arrange Queensland Registrataion if you wish.

Alternatively, we can complete a similar service on your own vehicle if you would prefer to arrange purchase and shipping yourself. A few things you should be aware of:

• All vehicles are required by the regulations to be fitted with new tyres and
• either original spec used, new OEM or new brand as tested, brake pads.
• Brake fluid must also be changed and,
• on cars and 4WDs, new air and fuel filters fitted. (Other items may also need to be replaced.)

So there is little point fitting new tyres before dropping off your vehicle as they will just be changed again. All vehicles must remain in our Qld Imports' workshop until the Used Import Plate is fitted.
