Default Where’s best to buy parts these days?

I need a 4x4 cossie fuel pressure regulator and a throttle body. Ideally one that has been opened up for anti-lag or from somewhere that could drill it out for me?

It’s been a long time since I bought any parts and don’t know where to look now.

Faceache and Ebay tend to be the only go-to's these days. The odd specialist breaker still about but long gone are the days of slapping a wanted post on a forum and actually getting responses

I personally wouldn’t buy a used fpr, autodynamix and msd sell new ones and you should get a throttle body cheap off eBay
