Give LMF a call... and yes, full AOC members do get a discount. Just tell whoever you spoke to that you're a member, give him your user ID, and he'll beable to verify it online. They're the best for service/support as well :)
dont forget the water pipe but cant get them from no 1 other than vx can get part number if want its well worth doing as the turbo has NO cooling wot so ever and this helps as uses cooled water its a mod vx brought out a yr ago

if the turbo had no cooling what so ever it would be shagged, the turbo is oil cooled/lubricated and water cooled altho it takes the water from the hot side of the rad which obviously is not good so the mod is worth doing but its not that the turbo has no cooling what so ever. Some older turbo cars are jsut oil cooled/lubricated

you dont need a new water pipe you can simply swap the existing coolant pipes from your zlet turbo over to your vxr turbo. Its all covered in the how too guide that was posted many times on here and on Z20let.co.uk....
To say the vxr turbo has no cooling whatsoever really is a bold statement that probably should have been researched first ;)
www.autovaux.com (http://www.autovaux.com) (or is it .co.uk?) has always been the cheapest for me when sending stuff over to australia, and they can get anything from VX, i get all my genuine parts through them. Who ever you talk too, make sure they take VAT off the price :)
What is this coolant pipe and how does it modify the existing coolant supply?
Doing my turbo today and got everything from lmf. Very good service and according to this site the place to shop.
Ignore the question about coolant pipe i've just found the link.
ended up buying it from autovaux, alot cheaper than LMF... even with the AOC discount:omg
cant wait for it to come down under:D
