PORTER CABLE 7424 in Sydney

Does anyone know where I could start looking for one of these in Sydney?

Infact does anyone know of a retailer that sells all the good detailing gear in Sydney.

I know of some that are air powered...

But i am sure GMC make those. I use a 10" orbital polisher $29 from Autobarn... cheap cheap and does the job well. The corner is hard to get into and I just polish that with my hand. Any less you want to refurnish a dull surface, a cheap polisher will do.

Yeah I have one of those cheapie jobs as well, But after lurking on the Autopia.org forums, i want to try my hand at getting a more "show" like appearance.

I'm sure GMC make one simliar, as do Makita. but tfrom what I can see, the Porta Cable one has been slightly modified for the Enthusists Detailer market, by making the orbit / throw almost an inch side to side. The makita one for example only has a 7/32" throw. Which I guess on the whole will work... Just thought I'd follow the bouncing ball as I'm a novice at detailing
