They are also a HKS rep and they tune the F-con and all the other EMS.

So all you guys that are having issues....its not far for you to take your car.They are spoken of very highly by people that I know.....
Here are some pics of the supra, sorry about the quality (crappy cell phone). Thanks for the kind words, I will also get some 350z and g35 pics tomorrow!

LOL I assure you these guys have nothing to do with SGP........They are a "word of mouth company"....I know that they do business with GTM and maybe SGP. ... I guess they do business with them also.....but these guys answer the phones..

I am telling you guys that are having trouble at that other shop and dont want to travel far realllly need to check these guys out. Everything they do is to the extreme.

Welcome to the site PTP

I'm not sure what you mean. When you right click and save as, it comes up as SGP Racing? If thats the case then the only thing I can think of is that I uploaded the pics from my computer onto to this website so now this website is hosting the pics and they are in this thread. Sorry I'm no computer guru lol. Sorry about the confusion.

Bottom out in a regular car....they have to pay then...thats crazy. I know we get heavy rain...but thats crazy for them to have it that high.

Good luck man. I know the exact location you are talking about.

The insurance adjuster for McDonald's is coming out next week to take pictures. I will be sending it out for repairs after that. I definitely don't feel comfortable with SGP or GTM after several threads on here. I'm mostly just worried about the risk.

Yeah, I've spoken to 3 people now that have bottomed out in regular sedans or full size vehicles. It is even worse when you have to go a bit quicker to avoid getting hit when there is traffic. I waited for 15 minutes for a good opening in traffic to ease my way in and never had one.

I know how you feel.....But I have never heard of a Turnover time issue with GTM...only with SGP. I think Redash had his done at GTM

Marshall... Speed Force racing might be another viable option. They offer a fully built auto trans as well and I know that they also use TransGo for their valvebody upgrade, just like SGP.
