Default Wow, H-A aftermarket prices jumped since I was a teg owner

My friend who recently bought an Integra asked me about front strut bars. I recommended the Neuspeed 4-point bar since I had it on my teg. When I bought it new in 2001 from Neuspeed it was $84. I just checked the price and it jumped 30% to a whopping $120 part that hasn't changed in design since its conception!

Ridiculous. Same goes with other things I bought for my teg for cheaper from these companies.

come to my city, you will see nothing but hondas, mostly crx's and ef hatchbacks rolling around on gsr rims with cut springs, and on a good day you will see at least 2 dozen of them with the hoods up being "tuned" this town is so ghey.

I've yet to see a car around here on anything smaller than 17's that are a different color than machined metal.

I'm actually kind of relieved there's other places like that than Connecticut. When I went to Mass. to look at a hatch, on one strip of road I saw a CTR, ITR, MR Evo, and a pink turbo EG show car hatch. I cross back to the CT border and the first thing I see is a Cavilier with an unpainted body kit.
