    Default Woohoo! Passed inspection! Parts needed.

    I thought I was going to fail but he checked out the whole car and passed it. Emmisions were OK and at acceptable levels. Problem areas are the brakes and struts. He tells me the rotors are warped and too thin to cut which is why it's shaking and the struts and upper strut bushings are shot, which I knew. Quotes me $1200 to fix. If I let him do it, it's still a cheap car but I'm a wrencher so, I am going to do it myself.

    I'd like to just stick to stock on this baby so what am I looking at $$wise for parts?

    Should I do the autozone, ebay or catalog thing for these parts?

    What' been your experience?

    Thanks
    Vince
