Bottom end rebuild.. who do u recomend?
Like the title says... Who do u recomend to build the bottom end of a 95 gsr? ... and why?
The bottom end in mine is going out.. time for a refresh... so im looking to see who AZHT recomends.. and why... no bs.. |
What on it is going out?
What all do you want included? What side of town are you on? Do you need the motor pulled, disassembled, and cleaned? Or just cleaned after you disassemble it? |
cyls #1 and 2 are at 190lbs... cyls #3 and 4 are at 90.... when vtec kicks in at 1/2-full throttle it smokes.. sometimes bad.. sometimes little... im in north phx... ill drive it to the person/bussiness... they pull it.. do everything and re install.. i pick up and drive home.. the top end was redone not to long ago.. dont know how well though..
|
I'll do it for 1,200
:) |
um take it to someone who knows what there doing instead of some schmuck off azht who says they will do it and throw a price.
Go to Tri Tech or hit them up in the vendor section and tell them RC referred you. Josh is probably the most honest person at a shop i have dealt with, and he builds everything the right way the first time. for a decent price too. I trust NOBODY with my motors and i build alot of cars. He has my personal itr shortblock he is building right now, 82mm 12-1 compression. and he rebuilt my head wich is now fully built. new everything. great work. everything comes out real clean and all to spec |
Heard this guy Rc get down.
|
yeah i met josh once before when i had my rex... was considering them
|
x2 on Tri Tech.
guy josh doesn't bullshit and is fair on prices |
No...
:thumbup: |
lol obviously you dont know who i am... Im RC. i referred josh at tri tech. he is a good friend of mine, and i build motors also. If i build something, guess who i take it to for machine shop work... josh. the machine shop he uses does great work. and josh is the shit, he has the patients on a top and bottom rebuild, id rather not do it anymore, ill stick to shaving bays and doing wire tucks and any other custom work.
|
:smackself:
|
Go to Tri Tech- ask for Josh
Number 1 most shops don't build blocks per say, what I mean is if you get sleeves or bore it, deck it, etc they send it to a machine shop. So basically the shop puts everything together. Which I think they can do. Reasons to go to Tri-Tech well they are in the same parking lot as Lo Cash, Josh is fair and expierienced, plus he is good friends with all those 9 second guys down their so I am sure he knows what he is doing. So it is a one stop shop for all your needs, once your car is put back together and built, Joe is there to tune it, can't beat that. |
My friend just had his GSR rebuilt by josh and runs like a champ..
only person who i would trust to do a rebuild for me. |
Oh no, I know you're RC. But that doesn't mean to everyone that you're more than, as you said, "some schmuck off azht". I was just promoting your advice of taking it to a legit place that knows what they're doing and will do it right. Tri Tech or IPH :thumbup:
And you.. shh. |
I was just kidding.
Waaay too much liability in building someone else's motor. I just picked a number and threw it up there. I'm no Schmuck I could handle it. |
tri tech fo sho! or import power house and have RS do it... both great!
|
Where is import power house?
|
27th n mcdowell.
|
just left of failtown
|
Failtown, hey isnt that where your mom is from, cause I know your a loser for writing that...
|
just go to
|
Lmao
X2:thumbup: |
If you have money buy an Endyne built Dart block.
|
So the interwebs will build this guys bottom end?
On a serious note... I'm in Tucson, I am starting my own shop and Scott at Collective Racing will still be the only 1 to build my motors. That being said, I have met Josh @ Tri Tech and think that (besides the Mighty Midget Joe of LoCash) he is 1 of the most straight forward and honest guys you can deal with up in Phoenix. Very knowledgable and, from what I feel, very capable. No offense to IPH, but I have NEVER heard 1 good thing about that place. HEARD being the keyword. No personal expierence. Point being, choose wisely. ou only wanna do it once this season. |
..What is it that you've heard bad on Import Powerhouse? None of my friends have had any problems with them. Only thing I've heard bad about them is their prices, some people don't understand that you've gotta pay to play, shit ain't cheap.
|
wow ... here we go again.. people crack me up... so many people can talk so much $%&@ behind the computer... if you have questions or issues with IPH... jus go down there.. and deal with it.. i guarantee you it will be resolved..
|
I agree with you "HEARD" is the word, you must hang out with the import power house haters, theres will always be people that ride other people nuts that like certain shops and hate certain shop. I dont know what you mean by "interwebs", but Im pretty sure we been open longer than most shops out on this site, and if we are that bad, why are we still in business. As for block building, we own or have the same owner as RS Machines, and Im pretty sure not most of the other shops dont have there own machine shop.
|
I think every shop has problems no matter what, there is always going to be that one motor build that has issues, What makes a good shop is if they work with the people to solve the problem.
I have been to a few shops and have had a few shops build motors for me, I've had Import Power House build me a couple motors and have bought lots of stuff from them as well. I did have an issue with a motor build thru them but like I said its bound to happen. |
we could also build it for you at our shop in surprise. but i will say that Josh at tri-tech does know what hes doing and does have alot of experience and very fair prices. my honest opinion would be to go to/ call a few shops and talk to the people there and chose the one that you think will best suit your needs.
|
I agree, josh at tri tec. He quoted me a great price on a rebuild for my itr. And that's the one spot in phx that I will have to my engine.
|
Did you decide what you were planning on doing to your motor? Are you going all out or just doing a mild build on stock sleeves?
|
Kinda lol. But the itr is going to be boosted now, no more n/a. And I'm going to just raise the comp. In my f20b.
|
Nice, boosted in my opinion is the best way to go.
500WHP daily driver with ac/ps FTW. |
Ya. But my delsol doesn't have ac/ps.
|
Sorry I was talking about my set up.
|
you are opening a shop where? cant wait! good work from this guy. lemme know where its at so I can get the word out. why would you have scott build your engines if you are doing your own biz? arent you gonna be competeing with collective for work? Let me know when you are open so Ican bring the accord by.
|
first, he gave the webste because somebody asked for the location of the shop... not to build the block smart ass.
ppl talk no matter what and for whatever reason, anything to get thier mouth heard and be that cool guy with whoevers reading or listening OR TO MAKE A VALID POINT ABOUT A PROBLEM OR SOMETHING. im phx and havent heard the greatest about collective BUT i plan on building an F series soon and still wanna go thru scott and see what he can do for me. josh at tritech i also know very well! like everybody says... very good guy and he knows his shit. spent penty monies with him and shop and have shared tons of beer! lol Import Power House/ RS... is a very great shop! ramsey and Will, both know there shit also, both very nice guys! funny how ppl say IPH aint worth shit but yet they been around for a very long time now and i know they are not going anywhere for awhile. IPH does GREAT work and nothin less that ive seen and im always there! point is homie if you dont ever plan on dealing with IPH in any kinda way, keep your mouth shut untill you know your damn self whats true or not. thx have a GREAT day! OP Steve, i think its you. go thru whoever your feel man, and good luck with your build |
^^^quoted from the fuck collective thread...
Not trying to put SlowLS on the SPOT or saything bad about him, dudes cool in my book. ... but point VERY WELL made |
IPH FTMFW!!!! Ramsey and Will run a great shop!
To the OP they will work with you, they wont let you leave the shop unsatisfied. |
Funny how you would quote the claim but not the explaination.:smackself:
