haed for 2.8 TD

just thought i would share with every one.

I just found out that i have a cracked head so i went to see a mechanic and he told me i would be looking at around $5000 to replace head all parts and labor. This morning i emailed nissan parts for a price and a new head is $1600 and a seal kit is $500 and then the bolts and free delivery. So i will be taking the time to do this my self and save about $2500.

The mane reason i am sharing this is because every price i have gotten from parts supplyers and mehanics, nissan dealers- parts have all ways been cheaper some times half the price and all orders over $50 free delivery aus wide.

Hi,

Which year model and is it turbo or turbo intercooled?
Hope you havnt already ordered from nissian =[

Regards
Rob

Its a 1998 turbo intercooled and i havnt ordered any thing yet because its not completly confirmed because i dont have water/oil mix. Iam doning a radiadator flush at the moment and its already runing better, well be washing out tonight and puting some cemiweld in and see how it goes

Ok too easy, If you need parts, ask me for a quote = ]

I was quoted $165 to pull apart and clean my radiator, bought a brand new one for $163+ Gst ;P

Have a look around mate I fully rebuilt my motor including new head,all bearings and so on for around 4g. Pm me if you want the name if the company I got the parts off, they are on eBay as well.

Yea Radiator is new and all hoses are new and can not see any leaks but today when i checked it it had not used any water so hopefuly it was just to fouled up to do its job
