both are giving me the same results.. a 78x78x78inch cube is appearing as a 2x2x2inch cube in Sketchup (same with non cubes - all objects are being affected). position's being scaled as well.

ironically, exporting is working fine.

edit - I tried the imports on a 2nd machine with a fresh install of SU. same results

my on going TARDIS project..
modeled and rendered in trueSpace 4.3.. until I got stuck doing the pipes. but with Jim's Importer and your Fix Remus, I can use SU's lovely abilities to just snap pipe sections together to carry on...
