$300 seems a bit steep.

Natrad in joondalup. Ask to speak to matty - tell him jesse sent you (1uzfe ma61 supra) and he will look after you.

He also does cashies on the weekend.

the waterpump and and timing belt tute shows how to take it off, looked pretty easy peasy, but i guess you do have a lot more going on there because of the supercharger and intercooler, and tranny cooler and what not

Radiator is easy as.

Hardest bit i found was removing the bottom fanshroud, the clips on it are retarded.

Just start doing it, you'll see what needs to be done as soon as you start taking it out.

Sure i can take it out but the issue is finding the blockage and clearing that out.

I've normally done the removal myself and taken it somewhere to get flushed. Maybe worth ringing around asking what a plain straight flush would cost if you brought the radiator in. Never cost me more than $100 the last 3 or 4 radiators I've had to do over the last few years.
