    Not sure right in Vancouver but Valley Eurotech in Abbotsford has excellent parts and service.
    Also try Nixon's in Burnaby... a little closer to 'home'.

    Linda will probably answer but I forget the woman's name in parts. It may be in your best interest to ask to talk to Ron or Mick.

    I've ordered plenty from BMA and had it shipped to the interior (BC). Just talk to Patrick about ways to reduce the duty. I've had very good luck and you can't beat $175 for the Nissens (if I remember correctly). I've saved tons o' cash even on items as large as exhaust components.

    PM me for more info on shipping U.S. to Canada,

    Out of interest, let us canadians know what kind of rad you can get for $200. I'd be into that if if its ends up lasting.
