Re: Forget cheap, get one fast... Posted by skibumm100 [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Forget cheap, get one fast..., skibumm100 ![]() |
FINALLY!!!!! I've been searching for a 73 mm band clamp for the TD04 Mitsu turbo on the Aero and I finally got one. For the most part, you can't buy JUST the clamp. I checked dealers for Saabs, Subaru's, etc. No one sells just the clamp....you gotta buy the whole turbo. I checked the local Subaru dealer and he had a whole turbo off a Legacy that he gave me...free. It was a trashed turbo that was only a core. Problem was it was an IHI turbo and had a larger clamp. I didn't notice until I got home. Then I searched and Googled and searched some more and found the clamp for sale from Hahn Racecraft. Their old price list said something like $33, plus shipping. I called them and the price had gone up to $60-something plus shipping. I found a couple on ebay in Great Britain and Australia. I didn't want to mess with overseas shipping. Finally, an ebay store in the US opened in January that carried the clamp for $24.99 shipped. Xaviar is the name of the ebay store. You would think you could get the clamp almost anywhere.....nope.
