Just order it, the freight company contacts you to out payable customs/GST etc. when it arrives in Aust and before they forward it on to you.

VTEC by the way, no "H"

Could always do a D16 - they're cheap and plentiful.

I'm doing a D16 VTEC at the moment - they aren't that much less powerful than the B16s, and they're smaller and lighter too so the car should drive and handle better.

I drove past a local performance workshop today and there was a mini with a K series in it sitting out the front. Race car though..

Good luck with the build. As long as you don’t expect the frame to be the only requirement and are prepared to do a lot of modifications then you should be fine.
Keep us updated.
