Is there any way to change this, so that certain components are only available for sale after a certain stardate, or something along those lines?
There is a minimum level setting in the components.
Currently, the main difficulty in getting the advanced engines is price and simply them not showing up very often in stores.

You could also make some of them extremely rare by only giving them out as payment after particularily difficult missions.
Perhaps a "deliver-the-scientist" type mission.
