What type of stuff are you looking for them to do to your FD? They dont know much about rotaries.

Well i hope they do good on your car,my buddy took his FD for a tune up last year and they only changed 2 spark plugs because they told him thats "all they have is 2 spark plugs...its a rotary"

I used to go there b/c i knew the owner John and have him do work on my WRX and he did good work with my eclipse at ESC. But I heard he doesnt work there now and I had some past personal experiences with a couple of the other mechanics and as I remember, if its still the same, unless you had a honda or a dsm it was a kind of roll of the dice deal. I had them build up my eclipse while i was deployed and i noticed a lot of the parts that i had on prior to the buildup were taken off and not given back like a HKS bov, a w/g and stock foglights. I asked where they were he said in the back somewhere but then i started to notice some of my parts on cars that were friends of theirs. I confronted them about it and they said they would get it back..never did. Hope you comment back with your experience.

That seems kinda shady, I am going to stop by there after work and talk it over with em.

East Coast isn't a bad place to go, but like all of the shops here it's all about who you know, and most all of them at the shops know eachother. I still go to East Coast from time to time, Jeff isn't a bad mech along with Larry. It is true though that they are mainly Honda guys but they do a lot more then that as well and still can fabricate a lot of things even without John.

Personally though I've never really had a bad incident with them and have always gotten great deals, low prices for labor.
