forget supacheap or repco neither has any listings for a 924. maybe Bursons if you have them in Qld. Something I have discovered with this car is you can never be in a hurry for parts 1 or 2 days wait is the best I have had yet.

I found it cheaper to import mine. It would be even better now as the exchange rate is real good.

Just wondering, the pipe that goes into the fuel pump at the top ( near the power outlets) is there anything special about it? Since I have bought a new fuel pump and am wondering if the old leads will beable to connect as they are. ATM it is leaking a bit of fuel from that joint..

also on my old fuel pump connected to the bottom there is a round black thing... any idea what this may be? like a fuel filter or sumthin? also would i be needing to buy a new Fuel Pump Check Valve ??
