starlet parts directory...

votlage · Post by **votlage** » Wed Mar 31, 2004 1:07 am

I was thinking it would be handy if people would post up lists of parts they have purchased for their starlets, what it cost, and where they got it from to make it easy for someone looking for parts for their car to get a rough idea on price and places to get it from. Maybe even some prices on engine repairs, tuning, service ect ect.

If this is a stoopid idea.. ignore it, if it turns out good maybe it could be a sticky in the buy/sell/swap section. but otherwise heres my list:

ep82 drivers door
$150+GST
Toyota Wreckers

ep82 front guard
$120+GST
Toyota Wreckers

ep82 parcel tray
$150+GST

thats a really good idea, we could almost devote a section to that, title it Prices for Parts

However I wouldn't recommend putting in any 2nd hand prices as people may take that as a rough guide, but not be able to get the same deal... so either parts from wreckers or parts brand new....?

yeah with the second hand bits.. if i was looking to buy new parts i would have wanted to know what other people had been paying for it so i didnt rip myself off completely, and have a rough idea of how much the part is worth for a starlet because of whethere it is rare or not.

wait til the proper area is set up for them, then you can copy & paste what you put above & put it in there
