i'm gonna be bring my 99 gsx from mn to so cal. new to the so cal, looking for any good dsm shops, that do engine swaps or engine work. also a good body work shop too. looking forward to any info, thanks. :cool:
 
you are about 30 minutes away from Road Race Engineering. They have been working on DSMs for a long time. They built the Greddy EVO back in 03/04, even the prototype Ralliart Eclipse for Mitsubishi.

30 mins if you do 120 the entire way there LOL. more like an 1:45-2:45 if there is no traffic, it takes me a half an hour and im in 714 area code.

but RRE is a GREAT shop.

I suggest that you personally ask for Mike Welch. See if he's around and tell them that you've traveled far and beyond to see him and the shop. He might provide you a mini tour as well. He's the owner and Guru of DSM.

I have nothing but positive things to say about RRE. Best of luck:thumb:

Here's an old article for you to read up on.

Welli had this stuff done if i can remember..
750cc injectors, Whole timing belt system replaced including removing balance shafts, new waterpump, Evo 3 GT turbo, new trans and diff fluids, tuning, little stuff here and there, and smoging it.
All this cost about $2,200, buts its been a while so i could be wrong
 
Another great shop is Project Import in Orange. They are a bit closer to you and do great work.
 
Bmxr152 thats not bad, and warharan.. project import ok. i'll check them out as well.
sd ff22, where you at? i'm down at del mar
 
I had a bad experience at Road race and am also looking for new dsm shop. A guy that works there is a real asshole, "robert"!! they cracked my new carbon fiber hood and my alarm remote and took no responsability what so ever. They also greatly overcharged me i paid 600$ for bs they installed side mount because my turst got a hole in it and installed greddy 760 injectors(that i purchased personally for $400 somewhere else) and a manual boost controller($50) the rre one, and they charged me $600 for labor I personally hate them!!! The owner is cool as hell though!

project import has horrible service i went there twice once about 3 years ago and this last time about a few months ago just a bunch of arrogant kids playing mechanics =/ and besides their knowledge is mainly focused on honda's last guy i talked to when i said dsm was reaction was "huh? whats that?" not recommended what so ever
 
It good, jus if you get your car tuned you will probly have to deal with Robert and hes kinda stright to the point to some people but he cool. Dont hesitate of taking your car there, as they do A++ work. When i had the work done above, i have been finding little things here and there that they also fixed on my car for no charge, like bead rolling my IC pipes, RE welding my BOV, Bolting down my fuel pump, no hoses throught the car, so on. I highly reccomend them!
 
Dyno extreme in stanton borderline anaheim i think. They hook it up if you talk to them cool also cheap dyno pulls!! they are getting really famous all of a sudden they have a 1200 whp supra there right now and also have the cover of one of the drift mags for there supra!!! i took my dsm there. just ask for sarkis and say Ryan with the silver 2g refered you.

How much do they charge?

I never knew they were there and I work like a block away.
 
(Dyno Xtreme) is getting really famous all of a sudden they have a 1200 whp supra there right now and also have the cover of one of the drift mags for there supra!!!

The April '07 issue of D-Sport perhaps? They had an orange Supra tuned by Dyno Xtreme on the cover. Looked alright... just a little too much bling for my taste.
