Whats up yall I am posting this to get some feedback and get some reactions from my fellow enthusiasts. Here is the situation,

As of most of you know in the area Modacar a decade long company in the East Bay will be shutting its doors and in all my friend will be without a job, I have purchased the dyno and other equipment to allow my friend continue to work on not only mine but your cars as well, We are looking at opening a location in Tracy, Ca I know its a little further drive for some Bay drivers and less a commute for the Valley drivers.

I would appreciate your feedback as we are looking into this venture with open eyes and ears

Thanks you all

it sounds like it be a nice place to open up shop just location is all that really matters and obviously a nice spot within the price range you guys can afford GL with the shop

 

u should open a more diverse shop .. most shops ive seen is really just a honda scene shop ... i mean honda's are good and everything .. but u know u kidna get sick of the same old look .. jdm this jdm that .. yea.. but i hope u guys have a great shop .. and keep ur doors open fora long long time i hope u guys can get good deals on things so i can get deals on things too hahah

 

lol most the shops i seen are more aimed at Nissan/toyota due to the drifting craze there's only a hand full of good Honda shops or event diverse shops in that matter left sad to see modacar go under. but as others said open a diverse shop as im into all makes and model cars.

 

ifu say that then why have all the car shows and meets u really just see honda's flash left and right ... honda this honda that . ....

 

Wow Modacar shutting down, it is tough times right now. Good Luck with the shop

 

how about the VIP cars.... dam we get no love haha

 

um is this about shows or shops? and you drive a honda slap your self. nemo should drive a ford lol anyhow no arguments and yes vip cars need more love as for shows i post on all fourms just most the other forums dont like hondatech kids and whatever that they say they do. i could care less i like all cars ...and almost all events not just honda ****.

 

i wanna see some euro too. i know a few vdub and bimmer guys who want some good tunes.

LS1 in 240 swaps = HOTTTT

 

itd be nice to go to a shop who could specialize in alignment on super lowered cars too ;]

 

Well as of many know Casey will be the tuner and as of many of you know Casey has a vast knowledge of any kind of car so installs will be not only hondas but we will consider anything yall dish out

yep cant forget the euro's and yes ls1 swaps in a 240 are hot... stock singgle cam k24de suck ***

 

good luck with the shop ike i think u and case will be fine his fabrication skills are off the hook and hes a badass tuner plus his knowledge turbo and other makes such as lotus ect.. let me know if theres anyway i can help

 

First things first, a shop needs a shop car for advertisement.. You wont go anywhere without something that showcases what your shop and tuner are capable of. Thats what drew me to Full Function.. All the fastest cars in NorCal were if not built, at least tuned by Sean who has made a name for himself as one of the best tuners we have on the left coast.

So with that I would venture on a big project, drifiting and road course is nice but I'd start off with a drag car, the faster the better. Anything better than 11s will catch everyones attention.

I wish you the best man!

 

Is this a shop enough car for ya, not to mention we have a right hand drive Eg-K Turbo

he dosen't even drive a honda ^^^ the guy above you

 

Its all good cause were not only just going to be doing hondas, we are going into this with a open mind

I see some honda love in there lol

 

How little you know... But either way it goes the car scene isn't about just Hondas. One day you'll learn that.



That's the only way to survive.. If you get labeled as a Honda only shop then only Hondas will come to you. I think that has been the downfall of many shops, not being diverse enough and more so not presenting themselves as a diverse shop to everyone else.

 

That's badass bro, VERY nice. Do you guys do a lot of fabrication? I sold my manifold that was on my DSM I'm building and will probably need another custom one built to work with my 4" full exhaust.

Here's the previous version w/ B&W S472 turbo on a 4G63 in a 90 Eagle Talon TSI AWD:









If you can duplicate that let me know and we will definitely be in contact.

 

im pretty sure casey can fab that manifold up

 

dang i'll swing by the shop sometimes with my mr2 see if you guys can fab me up an electronic cut out

 

i was wondering how much you guys charge for wire tuck integra 99?

 

forgot about asking a few questions will om them.

 

Any way you could show those pics to him and get a rough guestimate of the time vs labor cost?

 

well how i see is that they really dont need a shop car since everybody knows that the worked for modacar isnt that almost enough said?
