Website is here -> http://www.v8parts.co.nz Give them a call for prices. Some on Trademe too! Is it for a 308? Try this -> http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-345672020.htm (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Car-parts-accessories/Performance/Other/auction-345672020.htm) Or with power steering pulley too -> http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-346210843.htm (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Car-parts-accessories/Holden/Engines/auction-346210843.htm)

yeah i think i might get one from oz,it will be $100 cheeper and thats with a p/s pully,v8 parts said that i will need to change my p/s pump????what have you gone ith yours jase? ---------- Post added 11-01-11 at 20:53 ---------- have you got a close up pic of yours jase?

I made up some sh!tty looking alloy spacers for my power steering pump and my brother's mate had to machine up a spacer for the bottom pulley so everything aligned properly. This after being told it should basically bolt straight up - it's quite hard to tell if it'll line up properly until everything is apart! ... Also depends if the car is running a short or a long water pump! I currently only have this photo of the setup - it's quite close up, dunno if it'll be the angle you're after though. Oh and the p/steer pump is out of view. If you need i can take some more photos in the next few days. (Edit) - Found a few more photos

dont buy from Performance parts in takanini,they over priced,use as last resort. Def buy off trade me,i got mine for ute when had it and it was alot cheaper.bought from "V8parts" think his name was (not same as V8 parts takanini) on TM. have a look around anyway Danny

yeah v8 parts are $490 for the kit including the ps pully.i can get the same kit from oz for $370 nzd delivered.it will be going on a 304 not a 308 ---------- Post added 11-01-11 at 22:11 ---------- http://atracingworld.com/NEW-HOLDEN-...3C6EF6CB1.html (http://atracingworld.com/NEW-HOLDEN-GILMER-BELT-DRIVE-KIT--POWER-STEERING_p1EB0B742-4D11-4745-B012-0993C6EF6CB1.html) these guys,they do one for the air con as well

have a look on ebay mate seen a few kits for sale

ahhhh Dwight @ v8 parts takanini. Biggest arse in the worls socially. but knows his stuff. Holdens a dying breed though for them, hes got everything chev and ford. T/me would be cheaper but excise is changing at the end of this month, would pay to check the new imported cost. Also the if you just buy the pullies theres a belt drive shop in east tamaki i used for my belts. Same product half the price

yeah il just get a kit from these guys in oz,will be cheeper

Waste of money imo

would sticking a gilmer drive on a rb30 sound alright??

the engineering to do it would not be worth the hassel. ---------- Post added 13-01-11 at 13:24 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by NZ EVLHSV [View Post] Waste of money imo You liked yours! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Thats why you buy one where someone else has already done the engineering http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=347020972 (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=347020972) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

$650-maybe there is a market. Theres no way that a billet machined cast can run that much-ever. I had my crank pully machined and toothed for $65.
