My daily driver 2000 ITR has about 150K on it. It's using about 1 quart of oil every 500 miles now, and getting progressively worse with time. I figure it's time for an engine rebuild. Can anyone suggest a good shop in the New England area to do the work? I'm more interested in reliability than in performance, and I don't mind a shop that takes their time, as long as it's done right. The more obsessive and **** the better.

Thanks!

 

150k miles?! WOW!

 

Yeah, I like to *use* what I buy ;-)

btw, i don't know any shops, but i recommend only taking your car to a qualified and trustworthy shop.

 

Holy crap - my 2000 ITR has about 25K miles

 

if its just gonna be back to stock, just get ahold of len and go buy a short block from him. if you want to "build" a motor, you could contact ldlspeedshop in vegas they do a nice job.

 

I know there are a few good shops in philly and one here in pittsburgh and it is way closer than sending it to vegas.

I also drive my car everyday in teh summer and I would in the winter but turbo=no traction. since I bought my car in 00 I put over 75k miles on it

 

Contact Yack.

 

Yep, P1 or R and D are some of the best.
