Were would I be able to buy a brand new distributor for a g13a/b
Some kind of parts shop?
Suzistore would be my last resort at $350
Don't want a second hand one either

Cheers

There's nothing wrong with a good secondhand one
Just that every things else I have bought for my car has been brand-new

I could get one from jas quite easy
But don't want a second hand one
If I can't get a new one then I will go to Jas

Just get a decent auto electrician to rebuild one for you, I doubt you can buy a truly new one as they arent a high wear item like a starter or alternator

i would have thought 350 for a new dizzy was fairly reasonable.

Yea I'll pay $350 as last choice
If I can get a auto election to rebuilt the dizzy
And buy new rotor button and cap cheaper then $350
Then I'll do that

Dude I believe you should just clean up what you have and use it. Spend the 350 or so on something else. Everything is new hey? Where did you get the brand new engine from? :lol:

It is very very likely that the suzisport one is just a recon'd unit not a brand spanker.

If your keen on shopping on eBay in the U.S. there have been a lot of new old stock parts hitting the auctions lately, some in stores too.I would have a look.

Posting one from wherever they are to you should not be too bad since they are so small.

the dizzy's very rarely fail, just get the cleanest s/h one you can find, make sure the mechanical and vac advance units are working, and buy new rotor cap and button and there good as new
