If you go eBay, make sure that it has 17 Rows, it seems to have better internal configuration and fin design.

tinted gauges, with 7 colors to choose from. But I am happy with keeping everything red.
Just got my boost & oil pressure gauges from them. Tested them out on my battery and they look pretty good (all 7 colors!). But I'm gonna just keep them on red, close to the stock gauge color. Definately prefer these over the Defi gauges if tryin to save some cash

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_W0QQitemZ150090512889

the one that most places seem to advertise with the 02 sensor mounted up high



and the one i got below with the 02 mounted near the stock location


i would also like to know which one it is... i seen the one up top, and then another with an install kit

so far the only stuff i've bought on ebay are:

blitzz turbo timer w/ harness - $93 shipped
nokya h11 yellow fog light bulbs - $21 shipped
vortex generator - $45 shipped i think, i can't remember anymore...fitment is excellent.
greddy counterweight shift knob - $20 shipped

i prolly would've bought my tbe there but i got lucky and got a perrin dp for $70 and a cat back for $130. i'm running w/ my stock cat now but recently bought an ultimate racing test pipe from one of the members here recently...

i also bought a "cusco" rear strutbar on ebay for $80 shipped but still waiting for it...i'm pretty sure it's not the real thing but i'm also pretty certain that it'll do the job. you pretty much just gotta do a lot of research before buying on ebay to know you're getting a good deal.

i also check on the marketplace here to get good deals on parts..i just bought a cf exhaust heat shield from one of the members here for $71 shipped..hopefully i'll be receiving that soon.

just installed my o2 today it was fairly easy but took a lil time, but my o2 sensor didnt go in all the all cause the hole is near a hard line so i had to angle it in and it stayed in, but eveything fit fine

I bought 3 piece tbe set from ebay. DP was rubbing little so took it out. Overall great quality and nice fitment except for evo with ACD. Good fit if you bang little with hammer.
