I suggest that you buy good quality parts used, the classifides section is a great place to start.

welcome to the site. buy the good stuff the first time instead of replacing the junk later on and wasting your $$

i know its tough to spend a lot of money are parts, but its worth every dime buying quality parts. because when you buy the cheap stuff, it will break and you'll just end up paying more in then end in replacing them.
