Luciano Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I had Brady have a quick look at my 33 a few weeks ago with my exhaust manifold issue. Very nice bloke, was happy to help.

1400r Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 (edited) cant put a price on quality work these days from memory $800 for heater core was supplying brand new core and fitting, coolant etc as Brady didn't want end up stuffing you around by fitting a potentially faulty secondhand unit brady's well know for doing the things the right way first time everytime it may seem more expensive but from what Ive seen in the long run it works out cheaper for everyone didn't you already fit a "new" leaking core? end of the day a workshop is never going to be a cheap as doing something yourself but if your like me I prefer someone who knows more than I do to be working on my car so Im happy to pay for that knowledge Edited October 23, 2008 by 1400r Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/233497-tilbrooks/page/2/#findComment-4213765 Share on other sites More sharing options...
