Mark, the price was a bit higher, but I got them down to the APS price without mentioning it...
I'm still not happy, first thing, I am calling HPF to sort the price out, I've worked out they are charging $ 2560 Labour...lol..
That's buying everything at trade, which I'm sure they get a better deal!!

So say $3000 Labour, and the Kit takes MAX 10hrs to fit, Tune is $1180..........

That's $256-$300 per hour Labour plus Tune..... No F-ing way!!

haha, yah that is abit of labour for 5days work.

Did APs' price seem right to you though, for what they were gune do? (the price was alot of overtime for me lol)

Still a fair bit of coin to spend isnt it..... i cant see myself down that path yet, unless powerball or tatts pays me this week!

Mate, you only live once, and you never know when your time is up!!
i aint waiting for powerball...lol... I'll just do it myself with some hard earned cash......

Price atm is $10500 drive away, I'm not convinced it's a good deal just yet, but hey i'd rather use HP-F than AP-S, just look at their sponsors etc, HPF has it's own TV program etc, they must be doing something right

I'm Half way through replacing my Centre Bearing... and The Rain Arrived :-( (I don't have a Garage)

Pretty Simple Job, just make sure you mark everything before you disassemble the Tailshaft.
My Rubber Housing was torn to shreds, I will post up some Pix at the end of the job......
Hardest part so far was getting the shaft out of the car...Twin 3" exhaust didn't help....

couldve sworn your car went past my joint this evening... a nice whine sound from it.

but if it wasnt you, then who was it.

How is the rig coming along?
