I just got my Christmas gift a little late. JDM Final Drive, TODA Flywheel and clutch combo. Does anybody know a good shop to install it? Thanks

 

Try South Florida Performance( http://www.sfp.net/ ). I had my SAFC install/tuned there with very good results.

 

Drive across the alley to Naples and have Josh at Topspeed do it, he has done Mike K's FD and does excellent work at a pretty good deal.

 

you don't want to try it yourself? IM Asspenny and see if he wants to do it...we can work on it at my house if you want, just take a weekend to do it...

I'm game if he is...well, it'd pretty much have to be this weekend, b/c next weekend is the dyno and I am not going to have too much time anymore...

We've never done it, but we are going to be buying them shortly (ie, when I get some money) drop him a line and let me know...as long as you bring the beer and food, labor's free

BTW, does the person who bought that for you want to buy another? I want the same setup, well, w/ the ATS FD instead...

 

Have Josh at topspeed do it, he is in naples and does good work

 

I'd love to get it in this week, but I don't think I'd be able to break in the clutch and all by next weekend so I can get a few good dyno pulls at the Type R meet.

 

typer98 where in S fla do u live?

 

look below my avatar....

 

well, you'd get more than half of the breaking in on the trip to the dyno, it's about 250 miles just to get there...as far as I would say, 500 miles should be fine to break it in....

 

josh at topspeed, great guy and good prices, cant beat it

 

It's not that hard of an install.. but come up to the dyno day either way

 

John Brown Racing. Call me at 561 921 0472. I guarantee best prices and top notch tuning and installation. Call me tomo and ask for Sherbaz.. Dude, the guy produced 500+hp @wheel using vafc and 370's. If u want it the right way , let John tune the car and install everything for you. Proven Perforamance.. I am most likely going to the dyno meet aswell and I can get ya there aswell.. Give me a call..

 

wernt you offering VAFC's for $375, yea those are the best Prices... what a hook up, im not dissing john Brown, sure he built the castrol civic, to bad the motor was shot after every run, i have met him in person, and like him, but this is a friendly web board, not a sales center

He wants A clutch, and Final Drive put in, so why would the amount of HP he can produce matter

he probaly gave the hp he can produce just to show that he knows what he is doing

 

On TurboR's side: He did ask for some place that could install the parts, that's like asking "Who has a JDM FD in stock that I can buy?", you know that Mike and Dave, etc will reply with "I have one, call me" (assuming they have one).

On your side, I agree that JB is crazy expensive and I'm sure they would not be the cheapest place to get this install done. I also agree that Sherbaz's car's HP needs not be included in the ad, it's not like that was JUST a vafc and 370cc injectors I'd still suggest he do it himself if he has a helms, bearing puller and a friend and two hammers, but I digress

 

My garage is always open for Rs

 

Do it at the dyno day meet? I'll pull the tranny down for ya in like 30 mins I've never done the FD, looks pretty easy to me, but maybe someone who will be there has done it before and is willing to help...let me know, i'm always down for getting dirty..

 

Can this be done there? Anyone else up for this after the dyno pulls?

 

I've pulled a few trannies - I'll help sounds like fun

 

The best shop down south is MCAMotorsports. Talk to Mike Alcalde he only works in Acura's an Honda's the guy knows his ****.

305-251-5095

 

I'll help with the FD part. D, some friend of us, Jeff and myself did his syncros and FD and learned a big lesson about those diff bolts. lol.

 

yea..I'll bring my tools. I'm not sure all the tools needed for the FD but I do have a gear puller and I probably have whatever else is needed.

 

A Vise (john might have one at the shop) is helpful. Gear/bearing puller, two big fuggen hammers..

 

Great!! Beers are on me. What do I need to bring besides the beer, parts, oil and the car? I just want to make sure I have all the parts needed for the install. I have the pressure plate, clutch, flywheel, JDM first gear, countershaft, final drive, two halves of what appears to be a bearing and a metal, circular, collar looking piece.
