Anyone work for Acura? Need a hook-up on parts/labor...
Does anyone have any hook-ups on parts and labor? We all know Acura and other dealerships charges a gang, so I come here to save some money.
I recently just purchased an Integra GS-R and took it to Acura. Here is what needs attention:
-2nd Timing Belt
-Cam End Plug and Spool Valve Seal
-Oil Pan Gasket
Has anyone done any of these maintenance items before? I have the parts numbers for said parts and would like to take care of this immediately. I also have the paperwork and have no problem discussing it with you in greater detail. And you don't necessarily need to work for Acura etc. If you're a mechanic savy and have done these maintenance items on your own before, please feel free to shoot me a PM.

These are pretty common maintenance items, with the exception of the trailing arm bushings. I believe you need a special tool to replace just the bushing. Did you find aftermarket replacement bushings? Because the OEM parts diagram does not show this as being a separate part. What year is your Integra?
Might as well throw the water pump, cam seals and crank seal in with this, esp if it's high mileage.

Can anyone help me with the other three maintenance items?
-2nd Timing Belt
-Cam End Plug and Spool Valve Seal
-Oil Pan Gasket
It can be a hook up on just the parts itself, labor, or both. I have the part numbers.
