Default best dealer for oem parts?

any opinions on the best toyota/lexus dealer to buy oem parts from? I have a bunch of stuff to get for my 93 LS - struts, engine electrical, suspension parts long list.

I heard somewhere that Carson Toyota had good prices????

I agree with that totally. I got most of my 60K service parts from them at substantial discounts. One small problem is that they won't ship fluids. For these (and to get comparison pricing on parts available thru Toyota dealers) try Champion Toyota-Gulf Freeway In Houston. Their number is 1-800-327-2087. Mostly their people are pretty good but don't even talk to anyone named Laddie V.

Jeff Watson from Jay Marks Toyota (jaymarkstoyota.com) gives great deals on Lexus
and Toyota parts, and they ship fluids. Just mention you're from the MKIV.com Supra club.

I think Jay Marks Toyota became Champion-Gulf Freeway about a year ago.

You should also try irontoad.com. They give excellent service and their prices are very good. I go to them for all my Lexus parts.
