Greg, I was picking with you on the spelling, I would never unless Telum suggested it was ok, put another type of part on the car. But, I do think like you.

I am actually seeing if a friend is still in the Air Force there in AUS. If he is, I am seeing if I can mail him your parts if you get them in the US, and then he can mail to you. I emailed him 2 days ago and no response yet. So not sure. He will do this no problem if he is there.

Happy to do some digging when I can, but I'm not sure what else matches. I'm really conservative with cross referencing parts, personally, not trying to deter from people trying anything!

I've got the Wilwood rotors on my car, really happy with them. Worth the extra installation (bolts and safety wire) for the performance benefits in my opinion.

Finding a cost effective alternative in SA is the hard part... if it isn't already there, import taxes, tarifs, and bribes add up...

Looking at the associated costs, it'd be more reasonable to go to SA to deliver to Captain Greg!

Like you said, if its the same then great, but internal parts are questionable for things. I am checking for Greg, then he can avoid all those ridiculous fees. I didnt realize how bad AUS prices are until some AMG E63 owners were talking and saying they paid like $250,000 for a 90k car here. We were quite surprised. So I try to help them out when I can.

Greg lives in South Africa, not Australia.
