you gotta look in 'waterpump/thermostat' section in the manual mate!

where are you getting your genuine Honda parts from by the way?

The places i've asked for prices in NZ all want roughly double what i'd pay in the mother land. The Honda dealer in Palmy wanted $137 for a turn signal relay box thing for a Fireblade! I need to know where the good prices in NZ are.

Thanks guys. Didnt see that section.

Phoned local Honda - NZ$156

Not what i expected as far as i remember i paid NZ$15 for one for the car, so secondhand will be the go.

Hermit so as you can guess no i dont have any special suppliers, just the usual rip offs.

Was that $156NZ for the entire assembly or just the thermostat?

just the thermostat as far as i know. it was part number 19300-KV3-701 and called Thermostat ASSY.

Sorry, those numbers are messed up in the manual. Have them check 37750-PC1-004 and let me know what they say it is.

Craig still NZ167 for the new part number!

Naw that's not right. It should be at the most 35NZ.

This is what im saying - the prices take the piss! Its the same with musical instruments; the NZ wholesaler sets the prices and knackers it up for us. For example, Ibanez guitars cost (funnily enough) DOUBLE the RRP in England. They tell me its because they have no bulk buying power due to NZ's tiny population, but what's the point stocking anything at all if no-one here makes enough money to be able to afford them? Blue wing Honda are the official NZ wholesalers for Honda - someone needs to make an effort to give them some competition and put them out of business. We need Richard Branson to wade in and start shaking things up!

I've found 'Econohonda', based in Te Aroha; way up north. They have alot of stock including alot of used spares so they might be able to do some better prices, but i'll never know... I emailed them about a week ago, got an email back that confirmed they had received it but nothing else since. USELESS c**ts. I aint chasin after them with a phone call either. I'll just get my parts shipped over from Tyga who are all about customer service and will keep getting repeat business from me because of it.

I only tried the NZ suppliers first because i wanted to 'buy Kiwi' and keep the money in the country like the TV keeps telling me to. But unfortunately for New Zealand im not going to put up with poor service and rip off prices.

19300-KV3-701 is the correct part number for the thermostat.
37750-PC1-004 is the temperature sender for an mc21.
37750-KV3-951 is the same part for an mc28.

The thermostat is priced at 2100 yen in the original parts manual.

So that makes it around $33NZ in 1993....
