RockAuto has Dorman brand for ~$50

DORMAN Part # 520621 More Info {#51460S1AE01, 51460S84A01, WC120621} Control Arm w/Ball Joint Front Left Upper; Includes Bushings- $51.79

DORMAN Part # 520622 More Info {#51450S1AE01, 51450S84A01, WC120622} Control Arm w/Ball Joint Front Right Upper; Includes Bushings $52.79

As for Oilpans, meh, just go to Honda the price difference for such a critical part is so minimal, might as well get the OEM unit.

I'm looking for OIL PAN (MTC 61) , REAR STABILIZER BAR END LINKS (MOOG LEFT AND RIGHT FOR 36 EACH) , DRIVER SIDE UPPER CONTROL ARM (68 Moog EBAY).
The brackets are the prices ive seen so far.

i'm lookin for a full set of brakes, rotors and durm brakes also. -

RockAuto exports, also check with Honda (parts link in my sig), I don't know if they will export to Canada(or see if your local dealer has an online parts section). You know your postal code, I do not.

Thanks. do you know if ROCKAUTO include duties within their shippin fees?

Any recommendations on brake/rotor/drum brake 4 wheel kits?
I see alot of ZINC COated rotors and drum brakes, and drilled/slotted/ blank.

Im a daily driver no tracking here.

IIRC yes. Shipped some stuff across the pond and I recall I was smacked with a tax. But that may vary country to country.

Meh, I would stick with Centric Premium E-coated rotors and be done with it. The zinc is just a rust proofing, like the E coating, on areas outside of where the pads wear on the annulus. With slotted or drilled rotors the Zinc gives a bit of added 'bling' to the rotor with its gold hue.

Pads like Posi-Quiets Ceramics are fine. They will not dust like the (factory)Nissin units.

Solid rotors are best. More material = more mass for heat sink.
