Well I'm looking at a 95 Gizzer that needs all this stuff...how much does each item cost?

timing belt
water pump
cam seals
stock tails
thermostat

how much do you think I could sell a set of 17 inch Enkei CDR9's with tires?

 

Check out http://acuraautomotiveparts.org for OEM parts.

Cam Seal: OEM=$12, STR= $24
Stock Tails: 94-97: $30-$50
98+: $100-$150

 

i dont know much about cam seals....how many do you needs and what is the difference between OEM and that other? Thanks.

 

For seals, I would stick to the OEM ones, no big reason to use an aftermarket, it's relatively cheap.

Just for reference, a timing belt job at my shop which includes:

OEM-
Timing Belt
Water Pump
Drive Belts
Thermostat
All associated seals (even the oil pump seals on most cars)
Valve Adjustment
and coolant ect.

for $500-600.

 

well i have a mechanic that does labor real cheap for me so I really just need the prices, he charges like 15 bux an hour

You only need to replace one cam seal. The original cam seals only had 1 o-ring and as a result a common problem is that they leak. The redesigned OEM cam seal has 2 orings like the STR ones.

 

ok so timing belt (50 bux), cam seal (12 bux), water pump (?) There is only one cam seal on the whole car?

 

water pump is about 50$

 

water pump $50 ??? sure about that? I was quoted over a hundred for one,... Timing belt for a teg aren't they at auto zone for like $30 and kragens for $50 ?

I usually don't get OEM parts when I do maintenance. However, when I changed my timing belts I didn't want to mess around with a cheap one. So, I spent the $65 to get an OEM one.

 

it pays to use OEM all the time, with a few small exceptions.
