Default Good news and bad news

Bad news: Naples Acura got bought out. Not sure if they are going to put an end to internet transactions, but this company DOES have a different way of running things. So you guys may or may not like it. Hell, even I might turn out not to like it. Just giving you guys a heads up in case one day I won't be able to process your order.

Good news: They are telling me to sell all the aftermarket parts that I have in stock. Unfortunately, I will not be carrying any more of these parts. Only OEM in the future. But hell, it's good for you guys because the pricing is way below normal pricing. FYI, no returns are allowed on this stuff. All sales final.

Here goes...

-Endyn/Eagle rods for D16Z Civic EX $318.60-Qty.1

-Project Mu B-Force front brake pads (97+ ITR) $90.00-Qty.3

-Endyn Stainless Intake valves (flathead, hi-comp) $110.72-Qty.1 set of 8
I AM NOT SURE IF THE ABOVE VALVES ARE STD OR .5mm OVER. SORRY.

-Endyn Stepper Pulley (GSR) $148.35.00-Qty.1

-Comptech 26.0000 Foam Air Filter $39.49-Qty.1

-Comptech Icebox (Integra Type R, complete) $141.01-Qty.1

-Comptech Icebox (ITR, no brackets or instructions) $119.31-Qty.1

-Cometic Headgasket, 85mm bore, LS or CRV, .025" metal $65.00-Qty.1

-Cometic Headgasket, 86mm bore, VTEC block, .054" metal $65.00-Qty.1

-Cometic Headgasket, 86mm bore, VTEC, .050" copper $52.75-Qty.1

-Portflow inner valve springs, set of 16 $50.42-Qty.3 bags of 16ea.

-Rota Slipstream wheel 15" (5x114, flat black) $90.00each-Qty.4

-86 to 89 Integra headgasket, new, not in packaging $29.00-Qty.1

Thanks guys.

Mods, if you gotta move this thread then so be it.

Mike: what was the reason for the buy out? Did the owners get an offer or did Acura come in and force the sale of the dealership into new management?

Sorry to hear about it either way...good luck to ya!

Sorry to hear about the change. Maybe, if you're lucky, you'll get a raise or something else will come out of this.

How do those Project Mu brake pads compare to Porterfield R-4 pads? Performance? Any squealing? Dusting?

Good luck. Thanks for all the help you've provided us.

Talk to Mike M.
I have a mortgage now, and I am not going anywhere.

Pete Rose might want to go with some incentive.

I'm interested in the Rota wheels.
Are they sized for a 98 ITR?
What kind of shape are they in (new?)
What would shipping cost be to zip 60191

Thanks!

Oh Mike... sorry to hear that.. You guy's are the only dealer who carries any aftermarket parts... The dealership should expand that business, not drop it..

Keep in touch buddy, and if anybody out there wants a CW with red seats...

Oh and I haven't looked for a set of seats for you yet, sorry... I'll do that soon I promise..
