In my desperate search for an OEM coily A/C setup, i've turned to the land of the rising sun.

I'm currently organising shipping and when I have a final price I'll let you guys all know how it goes, currently looking at ~200AUD for just the parts, but obviously the real cost iss going to be shipping.

Here's one of the sets on there if you're curious:

That's for an SJ70, but not 100% on fit as Sj70's in Jap had multiple engine options.
As far as I've been able to tell the only difference is in chasis width, and all internals are identicle but this is opinion, not fact.
If anyone has any experience with the JA11/21/JB31, that's be a massive help!

I'm also turning here to get an array of "impossible" pieces for my sierra:
OEM "Check Engine" light
Handbrake cover
Dual coilpack-compatible Tachometer

And some bling:
Clear indicators/brake lights
The awesome JDM steering wheel
An actual fuel door
Sweet aftermarket grilles (classic fj , or hummer)
Led lights (int./xt.)

Looking forward to keeping you all posted on my progress, I've currently ordered a parts catalog for my car, so I can verify these parts will fit before I start shipping them, and I'll try and get it copied so everybody can have a slice of the action. Sick of getting th shaft because the coily wasn't such a popular vehicle.

FYI I have a coily.


Update #1:
The jap parts catalog has arrived, and has helped me to track down a nice little internet OEM-parts dealer.
Disclaimer: I have NOT ordered anything from these guys, so they are unverified!
But they do have a full, digital copy of the spare parts catalog online.
Already this site is offering ~60% cheaper prices than dealer, with very reasonable shipping.
But, cheapest is still japan.
(I tested prices based on A/C switch. Dealer quote, 70AUD, catalog site 25USD, Jap site 12USD)

Update #2:
MegaZip is 100% legit, with 0 deviations/surprises in price, but remember, their prices are in USD.
Some of my common pages:
SY416, Late Model Baleno (Coils-on-head)
SE416, Vitara, 2 (8) Valve & 4 (16) Valve
SQ416, Grand Vitara
SJ413, COILY, Q denotes soft-top options
The website I use for Yahoo Japan, Rakuten, etc. is ZenMarket.

Got a full one of these aircon setup from a sj70 gathering dust in Newcastle nsw if someone local is interested.
Not worth my effort to ship it.

I use www.suzuki-cat.ru to find part numbers and enter them in www.partsouq.com to find my parts. only done one order (over $1000) and only have good things to day about both sites. partsouq is priced in USD, as is the shipping. I went with the cheapest shipping and it got to Brisbane in 3 days which was pretty good. They ship out of the UAE I think. All the parts were OEM. they didn't have a couple of little bits I ordered, but they refunded the difference and sent me an email. Hope this helps!

Just got my first shipment from Megazip.. Silly name but I'm chuffed!!! Brand new wheel carrier (the old one had disintegrated, I've always been waiting for the spare wheel to disappear from view on the hwy) and new seals from between the wheel arches and bodywork!!

Sadly I cocked up and ordered two different colours, but will reorder the right colours and I still have use for the other ones!!

I've got another order in already and a few bits in mind to refresh the old girl [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]
