I've purchased from Tony a few times and he definitely fills a niche here in Portland. The strip-mall style shop has a showroom overflowing with goodies, from hard to find JDM parts to tacky boyracer add-ons. He offers very competitive pricing on parts, sometimes better than I can find on the internet, but sometimes the service is lacking. If you have done your homework and want a good price on a special order, or if you just want to find something cool IN STOCK in Portland, then swing by.
EDIT LATER IN THE DAY: I stopped by Speed Concept to see if they had any 5x100 wheels in stock. I ended up buying a set of Rota Torques off the showroom floor for $100 cheaper than I could find on eBay! I gotta say, I'm not impressed with the swap meet feel of this store, but there is a lot of cool stuff available at good prices.

I popped into Speed Concept over the weekend to grab a set of lug nuts and... wow their remodel looks amazing. Def new look - no more "swap meet" ambiance. They regularly keep Rota wheels in stock, and at a good price.

I have lots of experience with them, a few of my buddies had full car builds through them and showed with them (team innovations) they've tried to recruit me several times but I just don't like the vibe they give off. They talk a lot of smack and quality is eh. The shop owners civic is clean but nothing crazy. They do have a great deal on any Rotas though. Anything else ill find/install my self or use a higher end shop like PRE that has proven builds ect.

Man, I used to go here back in the day. Probably one of the longest known shops I'm aware of that are still at the same location. Do they have BRZ parts?
