So, I'm looking around for some of the basic upgrades for my 240 and sr. BTW, I never did get my swap started, I took it to balanced performace in the big ATL. Nice guys and a great shop. They said that they had had alot of problems with the blacktop s13's...Strange?? or just everybody who buys a blacktop is jinked. Anyway, I'm looking for Injectors, Boost Controller, Turbo Timer, exhaust, Intake, Coilovers, cam gears, cam shafts, etc etc etc.... Ok ok so I'm looking for basically everything. So is there really a difference in prices between shops? I'm just looking for parts not to install work. Why don't we have a sticky or a fourm when we find really good deals. None of this you can buy it $5 cheaper here. And if there isn't a difference, then what can we do to make one. Just thinking out my ***. Let me know what you guys think.

Well, i usually go with heavythrottle and phase2 for my parts, mainly because they get crap to yah real fast and have excellent customer service :) I buy through ebay if the price is right. Other than that, i dont trust alot of shops, had some bad experiences last year.

Cheaper isnt always better...with sr's i would go with the more reliable sources like phase 2 and heavy throttle
