After your advice, I'm off the idea at this point, but I had a quick look around anyway and it doesn't appear Hyundai are available in AUS. I found one from Sydney Tools that is the same specs as Simon's (24L, 1 HP, 100 psi) but know nothing about the brand (Lincoln?). I thought it was pretty inexpensive though ($179). What brand is yours?
It's an Xcort. I thought it was 24l but it's 30l, 0.75hp/4.2cfm The psi rating isn't realy a thing to pay much attention to, the volume of air it can deliver when the tank has run out and the air flow is primarily from the pump. So long as that is higher than the amount of air your gun uses it's all good.
