haed for 2.8 TD

[mat79]

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.

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
