I thought $76.80 each for hydraulic valve lifter for a 3Y was a little expensive.
I was right, the holden ones we put in were $6.50 each and they were identical!

Phil, you're doing wonders for reinforcing my belief that I'll never buy a Mitsi, aside from the fact that I don't think they handle Australian conditions as well as should be expected!

I once paid $420 for a Range Rover starter motor.
I recently paid $66 to a wrecker for a used Skyline electric window motor, just so that I could get the 'ten cent' nylon gear from it to repair a 300ZX unit. Sorry about the references to Nissan.
