Spokane

[Eequetsuorcha]

Does any one know of a good place in or around Spokane to take my car to get it worked on?

 

[Street_Killer]

Also interested in a place that could do engine swaps and familair with turbos.

 

[Plaser]

me too..

Have you guys tried Snow's Auto? When I was there a couple of years ago, there was a 4G64 2G Spyder with a turbo conversion sitting out front. I asked the guy about it and he said it was there getting tuned or fixed. I don't know the street, but it seemed to be a major street. Should be easy to find/lookup.

Yeah its on Division just past the northtown mall I believe.

There is also a place somewhere in spokane called Transworks, im not sure where its located though

I can tell you from experience that those 2 shops are no the places to go. Snows does most stuff like audio and body kits, and their "DSM guy" has a FWD car that does mid to high 13's on drag radials and thinks the car is one of the fastest around. If i were you id check out Kaizenspeed in the Tr-Cities. The do excellent work!

I would stay away from transworks and snows auto. Transworks booth at the auto boat speed show last year was a joke. All there work is crap just because you have boat loads of money in something dosn't make for quality work. Shitty paint jobs crappy fabrication work and how many Wyo Tech graduates can one place employ. Plus I heard that 90% of there work is for the owner like that crappy suburban. Snows is more or less the same although they would be a good place to go for audio. After having a rebuilt motor from Motorworks crankwalk a few hundred miles after install I can't recommend them. Though they would probably be ok for a 6 bolt. There are some good bodyshops but the best and least difficult to get into would be Little Buddahs owned by Kenny Spieger and his kid is the best around for tuning but he only has a 2 wheel dyno. I do all my own work now because nobody locally knows dsm's.

Ya, hit up Kaizenspeed, its a little out of the way (2 hours) but its well worth it.

Kaizenspeed x3

I got to bs with them at the track last year. Very good people and they no whats up.

 

[Eequetsuorcha]

I think im going to try to figure out whats wrong myself befor i take it somewhere. So if there is anyone in the Spokane area that would like to help he do a boost leak test once it warms up please let me know.

 

[Plaser]

in Tri-Cities, either Kaizenspeed or Rods Cars... both build sick ass cars... i personally saw FST91DSM's talon beat a 1397cc nitrous hayabusa...

 

[russgvrs]

I could help but I don't live in spokane so it would have to be a prearranged thing. Do you have a Boost leak tester? What kind of turbo related mods do you have? Have you done all the required maintenance?

 

[AWD_Launch]

Don't go to any shops in spokane, non know anything about DSM's or how to work on them. The guy at snow's that has a GS-T, thats funny. Its his ex girlfriends who has it all built 60-1 with megasquirt fully built motor yada yada and with slicks it still can't get into the 11's. I know because she is my boss and I told her to let me drive it to make it run 11's Best shop I know of is enlisghracing.net guy really knows his stuff.

[fst91dsm]

Ya Ill be there, but he wont get it, trust me. The car will be deep in the 9's by then, well at least thats the plan.

 

[Plaser]

well dude i got some bad news for you but idk if you wanna hear it.. hes in my racing club and i know all the shit he's done since then and what hes running now...

 

[fst91dsm]

If it will be an 8 sec bike then he'll win, but if not I will, or it will be a close race.

 

[Plaser]

lets just say hes got carbon fiber fairings, new light wheels, wet nitrous system and some other goodies.. supposed to run 8.8....

but you didnt hear that from me.. id really like to see you beat him!!

 

[fst91dsm]

Well it should be a close race then. But back to the point of the thread, just take it to Kaizenspeed.

 

[Plaser]

ya Kaizenspeed +1.. my friends have gone to Rods Cars and they jew you on prices!!
