        For big stuff, check this regional forum. For small things that are cheap to ship, check the main for sale section. Lots of lightly used parts for good deals there.

        Sucks not having a place to work, dunnit? I feel your pain.

          Yo Habla, you're located in the couve? And I have a 2 car garage with only my car in it but sadly no tools... :(
          so if i was looking for a nice m20 or something, look at the regional? and what about certain setups? thanks for your input i really appreciate it. I have been wanting to get my little car set up for a while now.

              I tend to have quite a bit of E30 parts at the shop, as well as other things. And if you need someone to do your wrenching for you I can hook you up ;)

                  What are you doing in that garage this summer?! :nice:

                    If you need to buy parts locally I suggest Bartosh Import Auto Parts, they're off of .. Grand I think in Vancouver, down the road from Crosley lanes. Better prices than any other auto shop and I've never been shipped or steered incorrectly on parts I purchased from them. In fact, when you factor in shipping they're about the same as buying online.

                      If you need a new exhaust for that m10, I have one that is virtually new. Had it on the kids car for a couple thousand miles if that. OEM Bosal unit. Take it to an exhaust guy for install, no tools required.

                            Price check on Vagiclean, aisle five. I repeat: price check on Vagiclean, aisle five. That's Vagiclean. We've got a customer down here with a full-on fallopian fungus. I'm baking a loaf of bread and I think it's sourdough.
