Thumbs up Parts sourced from Singapore at excellent value.

Just a quick note to say that I have sourced some nearly new Sti parts direct from Singapore at what I believe to be a great deal. The lad used to study in Glasgow so he is familiar with the UK etc. I got a set of 3 x 60mm Sti “defi” Genome gauges c/w pod and 1 x 52mm boost gauge mounted in a single pod for steering wheel column or A pillar mount. The kit included the Sti controller, the top rad hose c/w the temp fitting and all wiring required for install. (The Sti controller even still has the clear plastic film over the touch panel) Posted to my house in Aberdeenshire with 10 day delivery; If you need further info drop me a mail.

I am not in any way connected to the fellow out in Singapore, just want to share the good news with other like minded enthused Scooby people that like a good deal….now and again

I think that they are identical to the Defi guages (not the BF range) but have STI on the face.

I'm lucky enough to travel there pretty regularly, and have often mentioned the stuff they have and the prices. In fact I even published an article about it in 'true gripe', when a friend kindly took me to a Singaporean TSL/Scoobysport workshop. Shows how well read the mag is I suppose

The mods scene there is like the country itself, in that they've incorporated stuff from all over the world. There are some great mods and finishing touches available there (as well as some tacky ones) and products from Singapore are definitely worth looking at. Having said that, a few friends still order bits and bobs from here.

One last point. Sinapore prices vary a great deal, from 50% to 110% of uk prices in my experience, so just make sure you know the uk prices, carriage and duty costs before ordering.
