in the meantime I am getting mine reco-d...$140 for a clean, new top tank and pressure test...they even give them a lick of paint too...if this one dies on me again..then I will investigate an all...
just curious....what do eg radiators cost these days...brand new, and second hand? I had the top plastic (!) pipe (that the top hose connects to) crumble on me when I was removing the hoses for...
must be a common mis-conception of what a HD clutch really is then, as I (like probably quite a few others) assumed that a HD clutch was designed specifically to take higher loads without failing,...
ok clutch is installed...feels great, much lighter than before, and the car seems a ton more responsive...double de-clutch down changes are so much smoother too...good stuff, and damn cheap too!
ahh well that would explain the low cost.....it i something I could do, but without the right equipment & a second person with the knowledge, I ain't going there....'tis a shame, as I reckon it...
I wouldn't have a clue what PBR stands for to be honest, but like I have said, I think they might be able to take a fair bit of punishment going on my mates one in his datto...I was referred to...

hey Phantasm which clutch did you get in the end? I need a new one very soon, and got a very good quote on a PBR from a Melbourne parts shop (BTW I have a D series)...are the PBRs OK for normal...

ah now that makes sense speedcore...as I got back from two days of twisties in the mountains just north of apollo bay, and I was enjoying myself :D ...I checked the coolant when I got back to...
yeah I am the only one to have done coolant flushes on this car...maybe a bad batch of coolant?....I might email Nulon about this....it was pretty wierd, and unnerving to have put green stuff...
