If you need help etc or know what you want go to Odin Auto Parts. Accross the road from NastyCheep Erindale Road Balcatta Perth.

Been there done that.

Been put off by a few of the majpr franchises lately including SC and Repco. actually, BIG W had better producst, prices and service (Exide battery and Mobil Oil) and as for other consumables such as wipers, filters and fluids, going straight to Holden (or whoever makes your car) can often be a fair bit cheaper and youre getting genuine parts with a generous warranty that are often (not always) a superior item..

SuperCheap-NO thier not

SPARKPLUGS My roller is a Mercedes Benz CLK320 wich uses 12 spark plugs. But if you own any brand car which uses PLATINUM plugs then read this.

Here is a facinationg look at PLATINUM spark plugs. Supercheap will sell them to you for around $22-24 each.

My roller is a Mercedes Benz CLK320 wich uses 12 spark pkugs.

You can get double platinum for yor car from AC-Delco for $.7.40 each. Gebuine AC Delco Plugs for Toyotas, Hondas,Mercedes Benz, BMW, Hyundai, Jaguar, Mitshubise,Ford, Holden and many other brands . Long Life 100 Ks quality plugs..

ANY HOLDEN DEALER PARTS can sell you your PLATINUM plugs way cheaper than SUPERCHEAP.

If you need PLATINUM PLUGS go to the AC delco online catalog (Link Below)

and enter your make, model, engine and it will give you the part numbers, then ring a holden dealer and they are yours at a TRUE price.

Supercrap Auto!

I bought these SCA home brand items:

Jack and stands set

Undercar garage creeper

Fold-open tool set

A metal safety strap broke on the jack.

One of the holes for the castor wheels on the creeper was drilled on the side of the rail, so I have three wheels down and one sideways (looks hilarious, but still works okay).

The fold-open toolset case doesn't hold the tools properly, so they fall out when you go to close it, or open it. It's like a prank being played on me every time.

Are you almost 80 percent full of it? Yes. Why? Because I work there. We do not keep belts the cost anything over $40. We do not and never have installed batteries due to insurance reasons. So where did you get $15 from. We stock at least 30z115 at anyone time . And god forbid we are employing young ones and giving them a chance to earn and learn. I mean they are only our future

That sounds more like my experience at super cheap. I am not really a big car person but on the few times I have needed something like oil or whatever I am happy to go to supercheap they always offer a responsible price I can go in buy my stuff and get out. If I go to a dealer they want to give me the history of cars and what makes them go like I care. If SuperCheap are alf as bad as the OP and others reckon they would of closed a long time a go seem to be going strong to me must be doing something right

Yup, looking to get some brighter H4 60/55W 12V, one of the most common bulbs and SupercrapAuto have the NARVA H4 plus 120 for $82 when they are available from every man and his dog on ebay for under $48, that is a massive price difference on such a common item. Strangely enought there is only one review on the Supercrap site for the NARVA plus 120 and in that review it points out that you can get them for under $50 from ebay. So you have to give them credit for posting that.
