Clarified. Seriously though, look around, see what other people are using parts wise. I'm a fan of the HT Sponsor marketplace because they generally offer a better deal than advertised anywhere else.

No, they are more than likely knockoffs.

technically, those dealers on ebay are the middle man. if you want to avoid middle men buy directly from the manufacturer. and pay full price while you're at it.

Actually alot of companys use ebay under diffrent names to see products cheap and not have to pay taxes and not pay people who work for them or to brong people to there web sites... Its just another way to make money... Yes ebay has real things but you also have to look out for deals that are too good to be real

You either search on here for used parts, or go like my facebook page www.facebook.com/flatout.performance I dont have too much listed per say, but like the page, shoot us an email and lmk what you are looking for. We can give you some options with prices, and give some info if you have any questions for anything.

I usually look in the htmarketplace here. With car parts, it is highly unlikely that a used part is any more likely to break than a brand new one. For example, intake manifolds, intake, exhaust, coilovers, wheels etc. For internals, it all depends on how many miles are on them, but like cams and rods, it's highly unlikely that they are bad just because they are used.

I'm building my integra with mostly used parts, for a budget build, it's the best damn way to go.
