I wonder how U guys from TX know about this shop.
haha... i had my 2.5RS impreza turbo done there. was the best shop when speedtek went out of business... i went to school at UF, so this was the closest shop.

i am guessing todd is still the owner? they had some wacky cars run through there while i lived in FL... turbo saturn, turbo cavalier, a very fast turbo fiero, and then when i left, todd got the black rx7...

if you do run into todd, let him know that michael with the turbo subaru says hi... even tell him about my current car

Well, Speed-craft was one of the first people to turbocharge an s2000. The turbo kit on my car currently was one of the first they made, and this kit on the first owners car helped him run a 12.6 in the 1/4 mi, which I think is the fastest slip for an s2k.

I know there was a dispute with Dwight, the originator of the s2000 kit, and Todd, the owner. Dwight left to go to stage 6, and there's always talk about how Todd's a bad guy. I don't know, and I honestly don't care, they have a pretty sweet kit.

Sorry for stealing the thread. So. . . .nice TT 350 Z!!

The k-mart scene isn't big anymore. Now everyone's meeting up at Automotive Engineering(corner of 103rd and Blanding) and ABC liquor(103rd and 17). AE is the more popular meeting spot. Then they all figure out a place to go street racing. I went out with them to Philips Highway one night and watched a All-Motor GSR hatch kick ***! He raced a RSX-S Turbo and a newer model Prelude Turbo. He wasn't ahead by alot but he was ahead(maybe half a car, more or less). That's when we first got our Evo. EVERYBODY wanted to race, but it wasn't broken in yet.

Stage 6 has an awesome NSX. I dunno of it's turbo or superchaged but I'm sure it's fast as hell.

Thumbs up TT 350Z

Well, I consider myself to be a very lucky person. Michael was nice enough to give me a ride in the car today. All I can say is HOLY CRAP!!! That thing is sooo fast. It sounds very aggressive, especially when those wastegates open up. Amazingly, it's very docile in normal driving. It threw me back in the seat, and it put a smile on both of our faces. I don't wanna steal all of Michael's thunder, so I'll shut up now.

I used to work at Speedtek (near the end) It's funny I see people all over that knows about it. John really was a great tuner when he wanted to be. Glad to see there still is racing in jax.

I think he is running auxillary injectors on it. SkiDaZZle would have to answer how many cc's those are.

BTW SkiDaZZle you are car is absolutely retarded and I mean that in a good way.

all the tracks are closed for the season

as soon as I get my clutch replaced I will race him in my procharged Z (12.877) and see how bad he beats me

Hey Skidazzle you need to buy my JIC coilovers ..... it will help you launch better. I got to sell them if I want to buy the JWT full clutch setup with lightened flywheel
