Does anyone have an r31 Skyline right hand ball joint?

Just putting it out there, I've been trying to find one for a long time and they seem to be pretty rare, I do know where one is but It costs an arm a leg and a ballsack so wondering if anyone had a better deal.

Will pay in beers or cash.

I'm desperate for one so tell your friends if you know of one.
Cheers
:D

Have you tried say, Repco or Partsmaster? Several times now, I've been quoted ridiculous amounts for Nissan genuine parts, and I've paid often hundreds less for Repco/BNT/Partsmaster parts..

NISBITS (I think) opposite repco, I got a new engine mount and second hand wheel bearing for gfs primera a while back, they know there stuff and the new part was HEAPS cheaper than anyone else.
