I need to find a swap shop with good prices and a competent staff in central florida, preferrably in the orlando to cocoa area. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Come on, anyone?

Jesterian

bump! Any advice?

Brownjd

my buddy got his done in merrit island- pretty good price
can find out where later

downtown orlando - orlando honda/acura specialists - they do crx's all the time

as for me, i do my own. no matter how reputable a shop is you don't know what your getting unless you do it yourself.

What kind of swap?

Jesterian

Not sure yet.. Prolly a b16 or zc.

1990hondaHF

the zc should drop right in...so no need for a shop...the b16 would take a bit more....

Any other ideas as far as central florida swap shops?

You can ask me for help, competant shops are so overrated, my damn garage has everything now but a lift Well, you can ask me for help after I finish all this Z6 nonsense.

PURPLETERROR aka BIGMATT

I was just at new way auto in cocoa florida, he Is right on 520, on the left after you cross US1, he keeps full swaps right in stock and seems like a very trustworthy guy. 321 636 3288. Tell him Matt with the purple ef from NY sent ya.

Do Dr... lol know how to work on AC's? My shiet isn't blowing out Cold Air... Compressor is there.. turns on but no COld.. =[

As far as Swap shops... Out here isn't a good LOYAL Place.. I'm pretty sure All Version Can do it. If so i HIGHLY recommend Them. They're really good Honda/Acura guys. I KNOW PEOPLE who are legit and don't charge a Arm and a Leg.

New way auto charges something like $5500 for a b16 swap. They're obviously skilled, but they're price gouging like crazy. Any other suggestions?

I successfully can remove a motor and dismantle it without a cherry picker and hand tools only in under 4 hours. With a couple others and a portable air source, out in seconds lol.

insomniac791

yea I fixed my a/c issue by removeing it too.. My windows work..what more do you want!lol

I got my swap done at RPI racing you can check it out here at rpiracing.com
John Ward owns it and he is a member on this board his name is Composimo

RPI Racing has a great reputation. I have also heard good things about LHT Performance. I almost bought a CRX from the owner.

Word to this, I did both of my zc swaps on my own, first one took 3 days, second less than 1. Get 3 or so of us, $150ish a pop and we'll get the bish in in like 3-4 hrs.

btw I got the simple 32gal comp thats quite portable and gets the job done.
