Yeah, I suppose I got a bit of a shock when HB Toyota gave me a quote for about $700 for parts & labour, and the mechanic I usually use said about $450... figured that not all of that could be labour/ dealership costs, and since a friend got quoted $220 for a hupcap...
Been meaning to give call you Mr Revhead, but been keeping internet usage down- saving pennies, and work's internet policy a PITA

... E-mail's on the way, honest!
The main clutch place in town recommends a clutch by Valeo, saying its "really, really good", being 20% grippier/ clampier than Daiken's standard one. Is this one of the mumbo jumbo brands you're talking about? They're not saying its a HD clutch, but that they have definitely had good feedback from their customers... oh, to be the all knowing all seeing Oz!
