but all the seals from mitsu, got quoted $770+. its a sh*t list of seals, will find out what they are tomolo.
labour for everything is $660. I choose this garage is simply becos its 10min from my work place and where i live. anywhere further than that is troublesome for me. and i've asked a few mechanics in the city and most just refused to lay their hands of my car, just becos its an import and not many have the experience to do it right.
do you mean 770 just for seals???

I'm no expert but genuine parts from mitsubishi always cost an arm, two legs and testicle or two.. Ben would know if you could get any cheaper alternatives, just wait for him to reply
