Just picked up an unused brand new set of H&R springs still in the box for my Elantra for $40. Thats a pretty sweet deal if I say so!

Quote from a mechanic on another car forum I frequent
never, ever, ever, NEVER buy an alternator from autozone. it WILL go bad in less than a year and cause a headache. you have been warned.

I got a MAP sensor for free the other day. I drove to seller's house, took the part off in about 30 seconds, and he's all like 'naww, dude you can just have that.'
Out of interest, I just called the wrecker's yard and they charge $70 for one!!! Seventy dollars of australian legal tender for a used MAP sensor for an X3.
