Anyone know a place to get cheap OEM Suzuki Parts? They want $500 for an A/C evaporator core. That's crap, lol.

There has to be a cheaper parts dealer then my local one here in Hawaii. For example, on SupraForums they have a vendor that sells ALL Toyota and Scion parts very cheap. No catches, just they are an authorized dealer. The place is called Elmhurst Toyota so they are official, they just give really good deals.

Anything like this around? Need A/C! It's getting hot here in Hawaii.

Some things are quite reasonably priced

Suzistore / 4wdpartshop do a fair bit of international freight, and might be worth a try?

It can be, kinda. Definitely price it up against other places like suzistore (I know suzistore isn’t likely an option for the OP).

Keep in mind though that Megazip will sell genuine parts out of Japan where as cheaper suppliers will sell parts out of India. Those in my opinion can be lower quality parts.

OP lives in Hawaii I’m gathering? Some of the stuff ships from a US warehouse, definitely worth sussing out. Having said that I doubt Megazip would be competitive on and aircon compressor

I've used Amayama for Mitsubishi parts - I don't recall the pricing being significantly different than Megazip for the same parts...

I did small order of suzuki stuff from Amayama, parts took about 5 weeks. I normally do big orders of stuff from megazip and it's always been here in under 2 weeks. Amayama is normally cheaper than megazip but megazip has a lot more parts available.

Just be aware that most countries have stopped international shipping at the moment too!

Send me the part numbers you need via pm or on here and I’ll check for you. I set up amayama’s UAE branch. The issue with Suzuki might be availability, if you send the part numbers first I can check. International freight can be a killer also and at the moment you need to expect delays

FWIW I ordered a headgasket (factory MLS) for my landcruiser from amayama uae and it turned up real quick and was about 1/3 what the local Toyota dealer quoted me, he said 6 week wait too. A+

Not sure if these guys can help the OP (or if they are any cheaper then Megazip for that matter), but with 20% off at the moment you might find a good price on something you're looking for here;

( I only quickly scrolled and found '09 SX4 )

That's where I get all my Jeep stuff from, it's in the US but they send worldwide.

They do a crapload of samarui/sierra parts too.

Edit: sorry didn’t realize oem, half asleep here, but that’s where I get my mopar stuff.
