Thread: Finally getting back on the project.

  1. #1

    Default Finally getting back on the project.

    I have a 96 Miata that's been just sitting in the garage. It has the M45 SC with the Air to Water intercooler. I'm about to do a complete brake upgrade along with a lot of other stuff including fluids, TDR heat shield SC tension bracket, pulleys..yadda yadda yadda. I had the original work done at the now defunct Miata Technologies(no comments needed) so really going over everything and redoing a lot of things.

    My question is this: I've found quite a few things I will need on RockAuto.Com and of course other stuff at TDR. Is there a better place than RockAuto? What are some thoughts as far as pricing? I need to get a lot of stuff and I need to get the best bang for my buck.


    Thanks!

    Nothing wrong with Rockauto IMO, especially if you're not in a big hurry for parts.

    The trick with rock auto is to pay attention to which warehouse the items are located in. Sometimes it's better to buy a slightly more expensive part that will ship from the same warehouse as the rest of your stuff, so there isn't a separate shipment and the associated cost. Also, look around for discount codes.

    Thanks for the info. I'm not in a big hurry, going to get the parts together and ythen spend a weekend doing most of it. I'll be on the lookout for some discount codes.
