Best junkyards in Austin area for rx7 parts?

Capital City was the only place I could find 2nd gen parts in town, as far as I know I got their last front hub.

I've got tons of 1st gen parts. What do you need?

I still do need to come by and take a look at your place (there are a ton of trim pieces and other bits and pieces I need for both of my 1st gens). But today Im looking for a 2nd gen ignitor and leading coil so I can install my 2GCDFIS transistor... oh yea!
Thanks for the tip, Chris!

I went to Capitol City about a week ago and they had a s4 that had everything pretty much intact still. Except for the thermowax, I snagged that.
