89CAL Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 What do you want? Bottom end? Top end? Bolt ons? Really you are better off doing your own research and getting what you want You might want to buy aussie made (spool or nitto) or you might want to go for Japanese parts Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/440285-hands-down-where-is-the-best-bang-for-buck-for-engine-hardware/#findComment-7223068 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTR_JOEY Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 ARP stuff (ie head/main studs, rod bolts) is heaps cheaper from the states then from here Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/440285-hands-down-where-is-the-best-bang-for-buck-for-engine-hardware/#findComment-7223076 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTScotT Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I bought all my gear from Real Street Performance in the US. Prices were yeah, half or less. Can even get JB Precisions for like 1k delivered. My cams were like $400, rods $400... Everything was dirt cheap and I was able to build a much better quality engine as a result.

wld093 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Just went through Jesse streeter in Japan for my tomei oil pump. 1300 delivered. Your best bet is to shop around ,some prices here in Australia can be pretty good.

n_D Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I like to try and support Aussie business where I can but when the price difference is that big what can you do. I buy my stuff from the net, mainly the US and Japan. There isn't one company I would say I'm partial too, each company tends to have the best prices on different things. Can find a lot of good stuff on ebay too haha. Sometimes you'll get hit with GST with items over $1000aud. Some places sort of fudge the value hahha 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/440285-hands-down-where-is-the-best-bang-for-buck-for-engine-hardware/#findComment-7224680 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOD12A Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Heya guys, I used http://www.rawbrokerage.com/ for my last RB26 rebuild. Cheapest OE gasket kit by far (nearly half price incl delivery) and cheap Tomei Poncams (~$500 at the time) Ebay is good for piston/rod/bearings.
