firstone Posted 20January, 2015 Report Share Posted 20January, 2015 Would be handy to have a price though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazzieman Posted 20January, 2015 Author Report Share Posted 20January, 2015 Would be handy to have a price though. Around $US1k for the lighter one I believe. But you'd have to ship it downunder! And make sure it fitted your application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter M Posted 20January, 2015 Report Share Posted 20January, 2015 Summit Racing have them for $1035 USD: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rnr-5175185Then you have to add shipping: $ 826 USD for DHL ExpressThen there would be GST and the other charges on top of that again.

tazzieman Posted 20January, 2015 Author Report Share Posted 20January, 2015 AC 911 alternatives are pretty straightforward ; transaxle cars a bit trickier to accommodate. Not sure the quick jack would fit a 928. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
