According to this thread http://www.ls1gto.com/forums/showthread.php?t=312855

They should be coming out in January, better unit than the Xa's as well.

From VT to VZ i think... Not sure about the VE.

What makes them better than the XA's?
The XA's are made by BC to Pedder's specs ("to suit Australian driving conditions" is their claim).

To suit Australias CRAP roads more like it!

$999 USD per set.. thats pretty damn good... 1,075.74 AUD another $100 for shipping or so... a fair saving :)

I doubt this will happen as there wont be the demand (no more G8's in the US).

$100 shipping?? Try $200-300... These weigh close to 20kgs.

I was going to say the same thing. The box my XA's came in was pretty bloody big and would have been over 20kgs I reckon. You'd be doing very well to get them freighted for $100!

Do the BC's even come with strut top mounts? Doesn't look like it from that link. I think once you buy them, decent tops and get them freighted, the saving won't be that much over the Pedders anyway... I'd much rather go down to my local store, pay an extra $100 maybe and have them that day.

Plus for the potentially small saving have local backup in case of warranty problems or other issues.

Definately true... There seems to be a few sneaking thru lately that have had issues
