Re: getting my pearly hg fixed next week :D
Couldn't you order set from Cometic? That is what we would do in the states.

which is a 18 hour drive (i think ) from me on another note i just phoned subaru aust and got a price on the vrs kit and just a head gasket alone vrs= $1100 hg= $155 each and they have none in stock either could i trouble someone to get me some and have them fast shipped over here ? as i can get 2 from there for the price of one here it would be greatly appreciated and i can send you the money via paypal with extra for the shipping fees and some beers or something |

Re: getting my pearly hg fixed next week :D
and now i need another $650 (US prices) worth of parts so they can do their thing dang at least i can get them at probably a quarter of the price from the US , then sourcing them here. i don't think the shock value of finding out how much they want for them here is going to be worth the effort

Re: getting my pearly hg fixed next week :D
I feel your pain.
Apparently mine turned over for the first time yesterday, but still needing a few more parts before it's done properly. And as we all know, "a few more parts" is just a euphemism for spending many more hundreds of dollars. |

and yes thats true , if you can i advise getting 99% of your parts from the US because they are a LOT cheaper than subaru aust |

Doesn't make sense to wait when they're sitting on someone's shelf in the US. |

Re: getting my pearly hg fixed next week :D
Group buy.
Maybe we should pool resources here. The stuff I'm still looking for is: timing belt tensioner 1 x smooth idler pulley 2 x grooved idler pulleys engine mounts steering rack seal kit tie rod ends All of this stuff on the car is ok for now, but I know it'll need doing sooner rather than later. |
