    Thumbs down

    Hello all,
    Recently I've noticed people paying way to much for brand new aftermarket parts. Before ordering a new parts through a local company check the price against this:

    They are very easy to deal with and all the parts are express posted and I've never had anything take longer than 10 working days after payment to be at my door .

    EXAMPLE: I've recently purchased a BRAND NEW, CUSCO mz 2-way lsd through greenline for $775 INCLUDING express delivery, the cheapest quote I got for any 2 way lsd ordered locally was $1100 for a kaaz which take 2 weeks for delivery.

    From memory a brand new TRD 2 WAY was $900 including delivery

    These cheap prices are also due to the $AUD kicking YEN's ass lately, so the exchange rate is helping a lot.

    This site is well known to must but hopefully this will help some newbies from getting ripped.

    Thanks.

    and I paid $1250 with 2-3 week wait from AJPS <_< you just gotta cut out the middle man ay, all they do is take the cream for " organising" the deals..

    yeah I know, best thing my boss ever taught me was " you will get paid more by telling someone to move a brick than to move the brick yourself" sorta works. well when you think of 30% markup on wages and 15% on materials plus extra's for just organising a job...

    AJPS is dominating the market from what I see.. well up to him for the effort tho, but some competition would bring down prices for the customers I reckon CUMON someone start up another toyota parts business hahaha

    I've been using greenline for a few years now. Great guys to deal with, and as brenton said you never have to wait long for your part to arrive.
