If you want new parts cradley will do. If you want 2nd hand; which will be much cheaper than new, 'falloffslowly' one of our forum zxr breakers should be able to sort you out :)

theres AMS motorsport who also break ZXR's. But i think more people have had dealing with falloffslowly (aka Baz) so hes generally more reccomended.
