Anything Wrong With An Opti From Napa

I just got some prices for opti for a 94 z.
Napa $165.00 Remanufactured
Autozone $159.99 Reman
Oreilly $149.99
Cap and rotor for the same car
Napa 218.00
Auto zone 171.99
Oreilly $200.00
I also looked at jason cromer and he is 319 but i am wondering if that is with shipping and if that has the cap and rotor with it.
Which way you all think would be the best deal

Re: Anything Wrong With An Opti From Napa

There is NO warrenty with any of those on the list EXCEPT Jason Cromers'. I bought one from autozone and 3 and a half months later it went bad.......lucky me, I know have a nice paper weight that looks just like a opti. I bought mine from Dal, give him a call and see what he'll charge.

Re: Anything Wrong With An Opti From Napa

Shipping is realistic........I think it's somewhere around $10.00 (or less)

That NAPA one looks like a good deal. NAPA is a pretty good company, I haven't had any problems with their stuff.

Re: Anything Wrong With An Opti From Napa

I have used both the NAPA one that I bought was defective and I had to have it replaced I just ordered a GM one the second time and haven't had any problems with it for about 10k miles. I work at a NAPA and I know that the parts are quality, but I decided to try OE equipment the second time. By the way if you decide to get the NAPA one they did warantee it but it took a while because their opti's are made by a company under Mr Gasket. Just food for thought, not at all trying to say it is a bad product.

Re: Anything Wrong With An Opti From Napa

Yea i just got home from tearing mine apart its so far been a royal pain in my rear. I have also noticed that i have a few more problyms when tearing it apart, 1 being that the bearing in the opti is rough as heck i think that might be alot of my problyms,my rotor bug is also really burnt down so looks like i be better off to just buy the one with the cap and rotor included right? Also i noticed i have a radiater leaking along with my A/C condensor,water pump driveis leaking ,crank seal isd leaking,air pump is broken among other things

I know its a little pricey but its worth, may very well be the last one you buy.
