Ah... that sucks mate. As you state, you have an import sdub, in that case it should have sealed struts/shocks, meaning they would more likely be 'Bilstein' which are seam welded (hence you cannot install new shocker inserts). Do you require just shocker inserts or complete struts? You can easily tell - just look for a large flange nut where shocker rod goes into strut body. Will be either a Nut or seam welded.

IMO - I would try source a second hand set of ADM struts (there are not the sealed type). If shocks are no good, can simply install new shock inserts. There are quite a few different brands available, then effectively you have new struts.

I've located the 2 rear toe arms, but as 5SGTE has said they are shorter. Did you want to measure yours and let me know. They are also not light. shipping to QLD might be a bit.
