Need a replacement diaphram for the Greddy Type-S

Does anyone happen to know where i can purchase a replacement diaphram for my Greddy BOV? From what i have heard, many people have had problems with the rubber diaphram melting or detiorating and ripping from the heat if its located by the manifold. That is why they discontinued it and went with the Greddy Type-RS thus making replacement parts unavailable. If anyone knows where to get one i would really appreciate it. Thanks

They are about 80$ just for the diaphragm, I would buy a cheap knock off type-s BOV from ebay for like 30$ and use the diaphragm from that. But they can be found. Here is one place. http://www.racingworks.com/greddy_typesbov.htm

The Greddy type s has been discontinued for a while now. Replace it with a APS and you're all good.

FYI dont buy a cheap ebay knock off...the diaphragm is just a flat piece of rubber...i put it in the greddy and it opens at different boost/vaccum inputs and wont open all the way, it gives a lot of compressor surge to the turbo. looks like in gonna buy an $80 piece of rubber and do it right. oh well
