Hory Cow...

what were those worth? Ive only ever swapped out the bearings, but being the PITA that heating/pressing/farting around is......Id be willing to shell out *a few* more bucks for a whole hub.

What are they worth?

to convert the yen to dollars to get a rough estimate just move the decimal place over one. gives you a good ballpark. so around 1500 for the first one i think and 4200 were the 2 prices i glanced at.

The hubs on the stock FC are aluminum....

Edit, and inorder to come with all 4 the rear would need the ENTIRE carrier, dust sheild, hub and studs...

Yeah but he still asked after you posted. The real currency converted value is $356.87



Also, surprisingly that built in rear jack is only $178.46 now if only I could read that site well enough to figure out how to order it...

The site says it is made from an aluminum alloy called Duralmin. I believe it also says that a solid aluminum hub would melt or warp.. but the stocks are aluminum, right?
They probably would ship Internationally, it's pretty easy. You could get it sent surface from Japan for probably $40-60.. The site doesn't say if it's for all 4, but I believe it's only for the fronts. Both for 42,000 yen, so maybe $450 shipped?

They do look like a real nice piece. Wonder what the weight difference is..

You would think that the stock one with the cored holes would be lighter. Unless the flange is that much thinner. Just a thought.

You could carry around a can of that fix-a-flat stuff and hope you don't run over something that shreds the **** out of the tire.
