Default Attn. Orlando Peeps-need a good shop

Hey, anyone in orlando have any experience with some good shops around here? I just did my clutch last weekend, and managed to crack my tranny case today. I dont have the tools here to do it, cuz i did it at home, so i need a reputable shop to put in a new tranny for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Street Dreams is okay but I'd go to Titan Motorsports. On the corner of Colonial and Goldenrod behind the McDonalds. They mainly work on Supras but they also do other imports. The phone number is (407) 977-9732. The only other "tuning" shop I can think of in Orlando is All Versions. They're cool but they don't even have a garage, which btw Titan does have. AV do all their work on a street behind the shop. They're number is (407) 228-8282. Good luck!

While I've got you Orlando guys attention... is anybody interested in buying my stock 2K GSR rims w/ Michelin tires? Asking $550 but negotiable. If not... do you know anybody that DOES or MAY want them??? My email is GSRacer@att.net if you find anybody that's interested. I also have pics so email me if you wanna check 'em out. Later.

I have to disagree with erikjohn. Racingworks has bad customer service... Dorian and the other guy that work there are rude and arrogant. They've screwed me over in the past and I will never go back there again... nor will I recommend their services to anybody. Try All Versions or Titan. Cool *** peeps at both shops.

Well, i called both AV and Titan, and AV wasnt open, and Titals person who does estimates is @ sema, so... Im not really sure what to do. I really need this done ASAP, and im getting my new tranny Friday, any other decent places?? BTW, Topspeed86, im from naples, and i called there this week and they told me $1000 for a 99-00 Si tranny?!?!? Is that right?? Just trying to figure out why it was so much.

nfn: like D said, we're busy this weekend doing a tranny/jdm fd/clutch/flywheel job this weekend already, otherwise I'm sure we'd be able to do it for less than the other shops, but if you need it done this weekend we most likely wont have time/desire to two both... I wish you luck, let me know what happens.

I work at Titan, call monday and I'll make sure you get hooked up. Got ACT's in stock as well as fidanza flywheels and since you have a ITR I'll hook the price up. Even better if it's CW.
