GTA VENDORS/SERVICES&PARTS
Here I will make a list of Vendors, Mechanics, Detailers, Parts, Etc.
I will update the list only from places that members have gone to first hand. For Example, Detailer Hamza - Provides _____ [Opti-Coat (joergasm)] Parts {or whatever name category fits better} Nextmod{clickable link to website} - BRZ/FR-S Parts [Carbon fiber Lip Kit for BRZ (joergasm)] This way you can PM that member about their experience from whatever provider. I could also leave out what service you had done or what part you purchase. Give me your comments on any improvements on this thread/discussion, or places you have already gone to. THANKS! :happy0180: *edit* - 08/11/2012 So i added a few places with links to their websites. I want to get some feedback on the layout. Too many categories? Add peoples ratings? Add a location to each item? Once again, I would PREFER to have places listed that people have personally used, and not necessarily heard from other people. This would help others to ask about peoples experience with the place, etc. So pm or comment below for your suggestions & feedback, and even places that you would like to add. Thanks! --------------------------------- GTA VENDORS&SERVICES --------------------------------- PARTS Option JDM JRP Nextmod Alpha MotorSports SERVICES iGarage SpeedStar DETAILERS & DETAILING Hamza Wisdomdetail - larry DYNO TUNING TIRES Go For Tires CAR WASHES PARTS FROM WEBSITES www.rallysportdirect.com www.genometuning.com

Parts - OptionJDM, JRP, NextMod, Alpha MotorSports call around for the best price. all of them are reliable resellers Service - iGarage (good value), SpeedStar (if you feel like your wallet is getting too heavy) Paint Detailing - hamza, concours, gtaindetail, reflections, the list goes on forever research to see who matches your budget and expectations Car care products - wisdomdetail - larry good pricing and local! |

Oh yes almost forgot about Teknotik... For tires all the parts suppliers will sell tires too. Wisdom detail has a website.
http://www.wisdomdetail.ca/ iGarage - Ivan Teknotik - Eric Nextmod - Peter, Kevin, Rachel Alpha MotorSports - Mohammad OptionJDM is actually on this forum. You can just PM them. I usually deal with Howard. Tuning is going to be complicated if you are using ECUTEK. Don't know much ECUTEK tuners in Toronto. |

While i'm not in the GTA i figure Barrie is close enough.
Service: Radical Rods Rides and Restorations (Owner:Gary) These guys build custom hot rods from the ground up and have won every major award in the industry. they offer body shop services (paint, dents etc) right up to custom interiors and complete builds. Located on Jacobs Terrace in Barrie. Just off the corner of Innisfil and Tiffin St's. www.roadrumble.com Parts: www.trdsparkscom This is a toyota dealership in South Carolina that is the authorised Canadian distributer for OEM Audio Plus. I purchased the System 400 for my FR-S and got it for $100 less than MSRP. |

I've been to all of the places that I listed. Friends with most of them.
For custom exhaust work I'd go to Hot Rod Scotts or noyzboyz |

I have been to Lockdown Security - www.lockdownsecuritycanada.ca
They did the mod to my Pioneer Nav to allow in motion DVD playback, phone dialing and GPS inputting. Speak to Jeff Bates. Was very quick and reasonable. |

Any recommendations for headlight retrofits? I was thinking of retrofitting TRS's Bi-Xenon kit for the FRS. On that subject, is anyone else interested in approaching TRS for a group buy?

I usually send me headlights out for work. Locally I don't know of too many retrofitters. |
