I probably shouldn't ask this, but what the hell.

I know you shoulndn't buy important parts from ebay, but maybe someone on here has delt with these companies? CNS motor sports has a complete timing chain kit for like 89 bucks made in tiwain by osake or something like that.

And HORSE POWER MART has an oilpump for like 200 bucks. CNS is a real company, I called and asked questions, and they have a web site. HORSE POWER MART has a number thats doesn't work, but maybe one of you has ordered from them? Well im ready, let me have it.

I thought thats an oil pump kit you have to assemble? I guess that beats paying 600 bucks for a new one. One shop said they can get it for 300.

i go through a parts distributor and get mine at cost. that doesnt seem low to me, but my thoughts on ebay parts:

as long as you go through a seller with decent 95%+ positive feedback and youre buying a brand-name part, it will probably be okay.

i got my oem replacement exedy clutch from a seller on ebay and it was cheap and hasnt let me down. good luck!

yeah the one that AMS sells you do have to assemble it. its just the gears not the whole housing, its not hard at all thoght to install it.
