A very good buddy of mine is building his supra mkiv. He needs to rebuild/fix the seals on the motor first. What are some shops that you guys/girls recommend around here? thanks

Hello UNITED DRIFT SHOP ask for AJ the guy does crazy work from rebuilds to custom fab ita in Anaheim near the 57/91 (714) 496-0429. Check it out!!!

I recommend SP Engineering... But there is also Dynoextreme and also a company in Palmdale called Garage Works that have done good work on my car.

Sarkis @ DynoXtreme for the win.

I talked to AJ in Anaheim he said 400 for everything. I'm not sure why its so low, sp charges 1500 for labor and 350 for the seals. Hmm

anyone know what the average price of the job would be? valve stem seal repair

 

[Guest]

well the seals are 20 bucks and whatever the shop charges for labor an hour

 

[91turbo2]

Its a 15 hour job, sp charges around 90-95/Hr which is way too high.

To high for some people... They have done great job on my car... It was my recommendation if you don't like them for whatever reason thats fine, don't knock them as a company.

 

[PhatIBP]

I dont think he was knocking them personally dude. i know him personally and hes spent enough at SP to buy a brand new car. all he was saying is that they charge too much. never a word about their job and never a word that they suck. just wanted to clear things up

:wtflol:

Wow talk about taking it to the heart. I know a lot of guys there, known them for many many years, I'm not knocking anybody. The labor price is a bit high for my friend, is that a little easier for you to understand?

SP does awesome work, but some people cant justify paying close to 2k for a valve seal replacement whereas they can get it done a few hundred cheaper somewhere else.

Alright maybe I took it a little wrong... Sorry about the confusion.
