Cool Group Buy on Aluminium Radiators

My car has just crossed over the 200,000km mark. Im on my 2nd radiator and will need another one very soon.

Can I just say the genuine SVX radiator Sux! And we all know it. Not to mention it's way over priced. RRP is $1600.

I contacted PWR Performance and they can make up an all aluminium radiator for $841 including shipping. I was wondering, if there is anyone out who needs a new one or is looking to upgrade theirs, would be interested in a group buy. Even if we get 10% off, that's still $84.

I think it's in all our best interest to consider this and keep the SVX Alive!!!

Do a search for PWR + Radiator and you'll find a few of us already have them. The current price in the US is $500 (local dollars) shipped to the 'lower' 48 states. How does that price compare to 'Down Under' dollars?

Cheers,

when you say shipping to Australia...what exactly do you mean?

They list the RRP as $835AUD. Are you saying the extra $6AUD is for postage from the Gold Coast?
