Make the trip to P1 in SC.

I have and will in the future trust Jack to do anything I can't do myself on the car.

Ive heard the same about nrg I don't think there are any good shops in town, there is a new guy in town haven't bought any thing from him yet or had him do any work but he did recommend Mase tuning in Gainesville. You can contact him Jay Adams, Florida Import Performance, 850-443-1454 you can find his work on here some where it looks good.

Avoid NRG like the plague! We got screwed for mechanics, your best bet is to find someone who can stand behind their work(warranty). The dealership is your best bet if you want something done right... We do have a mini meet of sorts at Schlotzsky's Deli on Tennessee Street every thurs around 9-10pm ish. I don't have an R but I have a wannabe gs-R ^^... its black with a type-r wing, dropped and rockin bronze rota grids. What do you roll in/ what year are you in at FSU? I'm a local and in my 2nd year...

pm me or drop me a line

Drive down to Tampa & pay me to work on it :

I am sure there is some decent shops in north florida...
I highly recommend you just get good with some acura techs at the local dealers up there & get them to work on your car on the side....

Thurs at Schlotzsky's is pretty fun... I've seen up to 30-40 cars there and sometimes they go out to race in the boonies. We should def. roll out there this thurs(it happens every thurs around 9-10ish). I dunno about going all the way to tampa and p.c. pm me knalige and we can see about meeting up

ps there are domestics and imports of every nature out there on thurs

Im new to the Tallahassee area and im lookin to meet up with some people to check out cars and set up some races. I recently owned a 4 door gsr but the unfortunate happened and my baby faced an early death. But I still wanna see some of these locals race, hang out and talk cars.

Pretty harsh words for what your signature portrays you as

Anyways, a lot of shops are like that. Shops in Chicago are just as bad. They're crooked, they cheat, they do shitty work and they are NEVER responsible for anything they do. go to the smaller more reputable ones, reputable through workmanship and quality, not on prices or how long they've been around.
