I cannot get the Idler arm bushes anywhere! I would really prefer to get the bushes rather then a whole arm, but I will take a secondhand arm if necessary! I aalso require a new clutch, I have been quoted $220 for a stock, and $320 for a Heavy duty one! From what I've gathered on the site the HD is the one I want! But $320 is ridiculous! Any help greatly appreciated! I have an '83 JA!

can't get much cheaper on the clutch. but you can get the bushes for like $20 from NOLTEC. if you are in sydney you can pick them up, if not they are great to deal with online via email. for their prices i'd reccomend getting all the other bushes down there done as well (if neccesary).

Awesome, I've sent them an e-mail, saying I'm In Melbourne and I'll see if they deal with anyone down this way! Sadly I did also need other bushes, but have ordered them already! Check this... rang about 10 places looking for Front inner control arm bushes, nobody had any, so I in desperation rang Mitsubishi Sales and the guy says... What's a Starion!? I overhear him say to his mate, "A Starion looks like an L300, right!?" Twat! I did get the Control bush, from a local store in the end! :wink:

Thats an amazingly unbelivable price....
What type of clutch was it?

I'm not too sure, but I would say it's a decent one! Chris knows Starions, and I don't think he'd have them if they were crap! Heavy Duty clutch $220! Give him a call, he's really helpful! :wink:

I know those guys are ok over there, but I have been in the motor Industry for a very very long time. If i knew of clutches that cheap that are HD and reliable i would have 100 in stock!!! However I shall suss it out coz its possible some Tiawanese co. is on to it!
Let me know what, if any markings are on it... dont worry about the box as re-packaging is a common thing here these days. Good luck with the car!
Is anyone here going to the MCCR cruise??? Fast four mar reps are there this time and we should get the cars out there. I hear they are leaving from STH. MELB at 9.00pm.... but there is a PHOTO SESSION FOR THE NICE CARS @ 8.00pm. Its at the LONLEY PLANET..sat, 23rd... whatever that is..LONLEY PLANET - Dockside, Corner Maribyrnong St and Parker St, South Melbourne...
DJ!!! GET YOUR UNIT DOWN THERE!!!
