    Where is a good place to buy parts???

    I live in SO CALi and am new to this. Where can I buy cheap OEM parts? Im looking to just drive and pick up. Any shops? Where can I pick up some lowering springs for cheap? H & Rs to be exact. Where can I get my car serviced for cheap?

    "Cheap" seems to be your operative word here, not exactly an adjective that decribes 20 yr old german car repairs and mods. You can check ebay for the H&R springs, but i would just call Turner Motorsport to get them.

      If you want "cheap" then you should think about selling your e30 and buying a honda.
      Your not going to get cheap unless you have really good friends that give you there old parts.

        Unless you are within driving distance of stuff on these boards or craigslist, don't expect to be able to pick up. And cheap parts are not the norm unless you happen to come across something in a junkyard. Pelicanparts.com has pretty much everything you need for maintainance, and their prices are fair.

          There's a nifty search function that this site offers that will likely answer all or most of your questions.

          BMA, Northside Imports, Maximillian Importing Company, Pelican Parts, Blunt, and the dealer are all good places to source parts.

          Do yourself a favor and don't litter your car with cheap parts, they tend to be cheap for a reason.

                  All those, personally I've done a ton of business with Patrick @ BMA and always been happy.

                  He's more than happy to answer questions via email, look up prices and make suggestions.

                              autohausaz.com has good prices on some stuff. You really have to look around to get the best prices on some parts, others are all the same no matter where you look and don't forget about shipping. Autohausaz has free shipping on orders over $50.
