Any one know any places to get cheap parts??

[Kenji]

I have been looking around for cheap general parts like
spark plugs etc but they are soo expencive I found that
Auto One are generaly the cheapest, but still charge $30
for oil filter, $90 for a set of sparkys and $220 for the leads.
I broke so I have been delaying on the change of the leads
spark plugs and the car needs them very bad,
If some one can advise of any shops it would be greatly appriciated

Thanks

sorry people I'm actualy talking about a vr6

I should become a rep for these guys.SOUTH YARRA Hanvic PARTS at alexandria.Google them..

spark plugs are usually $12 at bursons and i paid $12 for oil filters at imparts

Genuine would be cheaper than those prices.

are you shore?? coz at one of those part shops they sold the bosch leads for like $500

[gldgti]

they have seen you coming.

sparkies should cost you no more than $5 each, ie $20 a set - go to repco or supercheap and look in the the catalogue for your golf, then get them in.

leads? no more than $100 for a mk1. again, supercheap will have enough to get you outa trouble, good bosch ones will cost you more but to be realistic, those ****ty blue top gun ones seem to go just fine.

the absolute best oil filter you can get should'nt cost you more than $20, and you can get your generic type ones anywhere for between 10-$15.

what is your car anyways?

[Tim]

depends on what sort of engine we are talking.
VR6 spark plugs arent cheap. And the oil filters arent your usual type either.

well I'm actually talking about parts for a vr6
I used to own a escort about the same age as a mk1 golf
and the plugs did cost $5 and the filter did cost $10 and the leads did cost
about $30
I think ever thing is expencive just for the vr6

I hope those ngk prices are for the platinum ones. the standard ones are heaps cheaper.

top gun leads dont fit. i bought some and had to return them. (they cost me $120 from bursons)

imparts sell the hengst filters for $12. They are the company that makes the OEM ones

[BlackVr6ix]

iridium, dont bother thou the standard ones are better.

You cant just buy Golf leads at Repco, Supercheap etc.
The crap that they sell are carbon.

Copper. That's why they last forever.
