Try this place mate.Can look up the part # and price up the compressor. They have a couple branches in Brisbane. Maybe you can purchase compressor new and just pay labour to fit and gas might save a few $$$$.. A VT commodore pump i priced new from there was $350 a couple weeks ago as an example..

I just had a second hand compressor, new receiver/dryer and a re-gas for a grand total of $500.90 on the south side of Brisbane at Browns Plains within the last month. The aircon has never been so cold. Cheers Tony
