maintenance...
 

I guys,i'm looking to get an EVO VII/IX and i was wondering if getting parts is a problem.
Where to get maintenance?
By the way i'm located in Montreal.QC
Thank's Ben

most typical parts are becoming locally available.
If not the special parts car be ordered from the US.

I know plenty of shops that can execute the work if need be.

I am in Montreal with a X.

most maintenance stuff, you can DIY. if not, its up to you to find a dealer or a mechanic who you would want to get under your evo.

sourcing parts is a bigger problem. i use this vendor for maintenance parts, as i stick with the oem fluids. and i buy my motor oil from superstore. :D

if you want to go aftermarket, you will need to go to the states for specific evo parts (ie: fluids ad replacement parts). a local dealer might carry them or able to get them parts for you, but they might charge you an arm and a leg for them.

i have the viii, and im from vancouver, bc

im from Fredericton NB and whenever i get parts for my IX i get them sent to Maine at a post office box i have there,. and pay the tax at the border, or else you'll get reamed with brokerage fees....

made the mistake of that when i got my clutch. ACT XTSS and prolite flywheel cost me 150 bucks in brokerage

You would be surprised how competitive some local shops are.
Perry Performance in Montreal has a ton of stuff in stock and has great pricing.

Don't always have to shop across the border.
