Try willyselectronics.com. They're a local shop where I'm at but very affordable prices. I can't really compare to what you're paying for right now though.

Try Mouser, Digikey or Newark.

Just bought an oil return flange and gasket for GT series turbos from ATPTurbo. They are expensive but I don't know where else to find the parts they have. Hopefully this will fix my slight oil leak with my ghetto-fabulous hacked and modified 300ZX oil return tube.

Worked on my friends s13 yesterday. It fired up when i did a little fiddling around! Everyone was so damn happy. My friend, owner, was in awe when it fired up (first time in like 2.2 years)! Going back today to do all his engine tuning and some brake work. can't wait till its on the floor!

Expecting to fire 'er up tomorrow and pull 'er outta the pole barn. I'm expecting it'll take a bit of cranking to fire off the E85! I can't wait. :)

Damn, didn't get to it. Had to do yard work already! Had to top two apple trees which were 4 years overgrown. I'm dead tired now. Perhaps sometime next week. Work before play.

Got it home from NY, cleaned it out a little, foam-cleaned the engine bay and hosed off. Much cleaner now. Now the hunt for body parts and interior bits begins

Worked on my friends 240 yesterday. GOT IT ON THE GROUND! it is now fully drivable after sitting for 2.25 years. i did his front alignment, flushed coolant, bleed brakes, set timing and idle, checked tps voltages, checked for codes, checked o2 sensor, completely detailed the inside of his car. by far, this is the cleanest full interior 240sx i have ever seen. it feels great getting the car back on the road.

purchased a set of gorilla lug nuts in red and red spin turn knob today. probably install it tonight if im bored.
