and about the guy who blew his motor, this was months ago. maybe a year now. It was on one of my trips back from Jacksonville when I was trying to get my DIY custom pipes made for cheaper than buying them online.. *sigh* heh...

Re: Ebay...not what it use to be.
I LOVE Ebay! I got my DSM off ebay for a decent price, i got alot of my parts of Ebay and DSMTrader.com and have only had a few problems. You just have to wait till you see a good deal and bounce on it at the last moment (like most people do). If you looking for car Audio/12 volt stuff you can also find that many times you'll save 50% over a retail store. Picked up a Apex'i FMIC for $175 (with pipes!!), 99 Front bumper for $60, T28Eliminator new for $300, Greddy TT for $35 and a bunch of other stuff.
My most recent winning was a set of 4 Giovanna Kuji chrome wheels with Toyo proxy tires (225/35/18 ZR) for $800 ... all with less then 200 miles on them (and i must say i love the way they look). Retails for about $3200 ... STEAL!

Re: Ebay...not what it use to be.
Same goes with me. I have found ebay very resourceful. I bought my video card (fx5900 ultra 256mb) when it first came out for $275 shipped to me brand new. People were selling it for around $500+ then. Now you can get them new in retail for about $400. You can't go wrong with computer accessories. Same thing with car parts. When I had the integra.. I bought the coilover system for $100, retailed for $815.
Back to the point about the spelling errors and such... http://www.vbbitman.com/index_files/Page559.htm it works.
