You could try "Foreign Auto Parts" may now be called "Alladini" which is at Victoria Pk & Gerrard.
One street north of Gerrard and about 400 feet west across from Loblaws, almost next door to Crosstown Batteries.
I have bought various car parts from them and they can get almost anything.

Roseland isn't bad at all. Remember, if it is out of province, they can only charge you GST, not PST. So, shipping basically becomes the PST charge and it works out. In terms of timing belt kits, etc, I wouldn't hesitate to order from him.

If you are looking for other part sources, look at the 'Ontario FAQ', it's a sticky in this regional forum. Frisco is a good source for certain parts...it's basically a UAP/NAPA for VW and Audi specifically.

The Bilstien TCs are very good as a stock replacement strut. It's basically a better quality ride than the stock susp. The HDs on the other hand are supposed to be much stiffer, etc (and a lot more $$). I've heard a lot of good things said about the Bilstien's.
