http://www.partsheaven.com/Articles.asp?ID=249

i'll be setting up a table w/the metric ****ton of extra stuff i have post-rebuild:

front and rear sway bars, new front droplinks and some sway bushings, used front/rear struts and springs, a bunch of racer's edge rear bushings, A/C condenser and compressor, used PS reservoirs, oil pump rebuild kit, PS rebuild kit, some heat shields and mountings, etc.

sadly my 951 isn't QUITE ready yet, so just look for the blue acura and the tall guy.

hope to see some of you folks there!

just dont be tricked into actually dealing with those guys, otherwise you'll find your house foreclosed on with the prices they charge.

i have gotten a bunch of little stuff from them, and since i'm local, i have a good face-to-face relationship w/them. sure, they can be expensive, but they are helpful and a good source of hard-to-find parts. they also will stand by what they sell you (spencer sold me a new shift boot that didn't fit, so he worked on it on his own time and shipped it to me locally when it was fit properly).

anyways, back on topic: anyone else gonna be there?

I'll be there -- every year I think I'll set up a table and every year I lack the organization (and end up bring more stuff home instead).

I think I am going to go with a new unit
Big on bucks but its just too much hassle to deal with this again
Also I think that is a bit different as the bleed vale for that unit is on the hose vs mine which is on the compressor...?
When I finally get this thing running we all should try to get together...
