Where To Buy Helicoil/thread Repair?


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I've moved to Victoria very recently and I'm not too sure where everything is yet.
Can anyone recommend a good place to find an M12x1.75 thread repair kit?

I had a look around Lillydale/Chirnside area and couldn't find much beside SCA and Repco both of which had none.
Preferably out near Lilydale/Croydon/Nunawading sort of areas but I'm happy to travel - good way to get to know the place.
Cheers

ahh yeah forgot Lilydale has a small industrial area...used to deliver there too...

How can you forget that Lilydale has a small industrial area? half the place is an industrial area! or did you lose the Cavehill estate amongst all of the others? :P

Love it when places have employees with a reputation in communities.

Like old Kumbak wreckers...

My work's got an account with Economy Bolts in Moorabbin, it's a bit more expensive that some other places, but I can walk in there with the vaguest description of what I'm after and they'll come back in 30 seconds with 3 things that'll work better for the application than what I was after, even if it's half the cost of what I originally wanted.

They really know their stuff.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
