I ordered most of the big stuff from here: Adafruit Industries, Unique & fun DIY electronics and kits

For parts like the transistor (motorola 2N3906) I used google shopper until I found a site that them with cheap shipping. You can get everything on amazon, but paying $5 shipping for every 2 cent item isn't smart. Radioshack has a good chance of having the more common items for $1 as well.

Been available for a while now.

You'll need a speed sensor input to the MPGuino. Don't know if your car has such a signal.

is one of these 2 better for a 92 geo metro? i notice they use 2 different versions of mpguino on them.

...mpguino.wiseman...
this one seems it has a newer version in it plus some very neat extra features.

What you mean by being better for Geo Metro? Probably both work, but my version has more extra features.
