Harmonic Balancer needed in Australia

[Luke240z]

I need to find a balancer for my Z and I can't find one anywhere in Oz. It is going to cost me $180 to send my old one away and have the rubber insert replaced. Is this my only option???

Thanks

Luke

I might have one off a 260.

I'll let you know tomorrow.

[Luke240z]

That would be great Rob. Obviously the 240 and 260 ones are very similar??

Thanks

Luke

Are there any after market balancers available for the Z. I don't mind how much I just need one. But if I'm payin' I want a bloody good one.

Thanks

Luke,

You might want to enquire with this company in Sydney, they are an offshoot of Midel who seel SU parts.

They sell Ross harmonic balancers which are supposed to be quite good, however I don't know whether they carry one for the L series motor.

Cheers,

Hmmm I might have 1 here but it's the 3 pulley type from a ZX so you can have air conditioning, power steering and alternator but they have the extra rotational mass and I replaced mine with a 240z one when i got the lighter flywheel.

Thanks Guys, By the way Gav I just registered to your forum, Top work champ. Its about time us Aussies had a local forum that has Aussie prices and Aussie variables.

Thanks Again

Luke

p.s. g260, I'll check out those balancers tomorrow, Thanks.

yeah i noticed Luke welcome aboard. The club isn't even officially registered yet but we will be dealing with that in a short time.

Good luck with the pulley.
