i just took it to a small place right near where i live because it was close. I actually live in Greenwood now...Oh yeah, I found out on Friday why my car wouldn't start. Apparently when the guy i bought the car off of put a new head gasket in for me last saturday, he forgot to lock one of the cam gears (on the intake side) in place. So...basically after driving the car a little bit, the cam gear eventually slid off, ruining not only my cam gears, but also my type-R camshafts. It also bent my valves. I'm not sure about the condition of the pistons yet...So basically I'm gonna be having a conversation with that guy about the "work" he did on my car...Because I am sure as heck not paying out of my own pocket to have it all fixed.

Yeah...so if anybody has any advice on where I could get new performance parts at a good price to replace the ones that are messed up, let me know. I spent like all my money just to buy this car! Hopefully, that guy will lay some cash down, or I will see him in court. I have a '94 GSR and I'm gonna need (at least) new Cam Gears, new Cams (ITR or Civic Type R), new valves, valve springs and valve guides...That's all I know of so far. Any input would really be appreciated. Thanks.

Yuck. Sounds like a mess. I know I'm new, but I can point you at www.truckperformance.com ; I know a friend of mine gets a lot of stuff there for his vehicle. Even though it says truck performance, there are lots of car parts there as well. Sorry to hear about your Integra problems
