Who are interested and how much are you willing to pay for them delivered to you.
Thanks.

I will keep you guys updated on this thread for how much I can get them.
We will preferably have to use postage by sea due to weight increasing the postage if by air.

Damn, It is going to cost a arm and a leg for you guys.
They go for $770. Have 20 000km on them.
Then I still need to post it to Aus.
Weight is apparently +- 25Kg.
Sorry guys. I think it will cost you too much.

They would be about $650 USD shipped individually out of USA (good used 60a 5-speed), but there's no profit in doing so, it is a pain to find one, and build a shipping box for it. That may be why on eBay people pay $350 or so for a boxed one (plus shipping). Although If I had an extra sitting around I would do it for a club members. They are not rare, but then again not just sitting around too often.

Then out of Japan, $1441 USD (at today's exchange) for a new 60-series 5-speed from Aoba Auto -- The Sunny Truck Shop (you could email Yuki for shipping costs).

Is it possible to get parts GXman?

What about sending over bits for a Vanette conversion?

(I just happen to have a Vanette 5 speed handy )
