Question Australian parts questions

Hi guys,

Sorry I have been wuiet of late, life has been hectic.

I HAVE been driving my SVX daily and now it is crying for attention. I have begun my research and have hit a few walls.

First - Brakes - mine are horrible. Are DBA brakes still available for SVX?

I can only find RDA ones. And WHY SO EXPENSIVE? $650 for slotted type upgrade when other cars are only $200 for similar! Even the OEM rotors are over $300 each! WTF?

Second - Suspension parts.

Bushings - Do we HAVE to order them from Poland or can they be sourced locally?

Shocks/Springs - is Koni still the only option? Mine are leaking, creaking etc.

Third - Windscreen. Mine has thousands of fine pits in it and a few chips. Can a genuine windscreen be found in Australia?

I hope someone can assist in my enquiries!:confused
