I got a set of Integra seats for 32.50 from my local junk yard... cleaned em up and used them for a couple years. They were in good shape after I cleaned them.

Being in southern California finding rare things is hard unless your first there when they put out a new row. Have found a DC sports header, and 90-91 civic si front seats, also recently saw a set of ef9 seats that were butchered into a CRX. Didn't buy em cause of lack of headrests, and butchered seat rails.

Buddy of mine was in the junkyard up the road from us and got a real mugen lip for 99 si. Mugen badge and all. Its back in a junkyard now with the rest of his car due to being run off the road in the rain by some jackass in a suby.

Default Re: post your junkyard treasure finds

at the junk yard I always find good deals to keep or resell


I found 94 legend gs dual piston calipers (same as nsx) with 28T brackets for $38.
The owner probably did a complete front brake overhaul cause it had new pads, calipers, rotors & axel nut.

Also found a 99 integra sedan with rear trialing arms in good condition for $75.


Then I always buy good calipers & brackets from 90-97 accord wagon, 94-97 accord v6, 97-99 cl v6, 97-01 crv, 92-94 legend, vigor, cause they all have the same caliper as ITR. buy the pair for $35, test them and resell for $75.

Also get d-f-b series valve covers at $5 each and resell them for $10-25 (depending on condition or type).

y8 oil pans & IM sellf or $6 and I resell it for $25-45.

z6 IM by for $6 and resell for $25

or sometimes I just buy ramdom things that I know people well need later..... lol


But I only do that in the summer time.
