They are not a "speed shop" its more of a regular garage. But they do swaps, turbo kits, everything. There work is super clean and there prices are resonable. Im talking about J&R Autocare center, its in little ferry NJ. You might want to stop by and check it out.

hey guys i just saw this thread, before i went to raymonds, i was very interested in powerzamcam, but i emailed them some 5-10 tmes, and called about 4 times, and could never get anyone to schedule something wiht me... soo we kinda got off on the wrong foot. But true raymonds is not such a speed shop. but these guys are super nice, they do quality work, for a hella low price. and there the type of guys wholl go that extra mile, just becuase its a 240 and they have the passion that many of us do... Its your choice and your car. take it where u feel most comfortable... but ill say it 1000 moe times. i feel extremly comfortable with the guys at RMW having my car... they treaat it better than there own.. which makes. me feel good ...

there's tronix in red bank they said they would swap an sr for 1000, but that's kinda expensive, raymond's auto said they'd do it for 550, I know a person who got his stuff done at fast fantasies in long branch it came out good, I'm not too sure if they are still around though. There's a lot of places in monmouth county I just never used em.

I'm using PowerZamCam, so far the guys are fantastic. It is a side business for now, so they work weekends and nights. They know there 240's.

damn, edit that, tronix is in freehold, derp, I don't know why I said red bank. The way I get there is off of 537 going towards freehold mall. When you first enter freehold's shopping district on 537, there will be a bunch of little crosses that look like graves, to your right, and a diner across the street, and to the left is the freehold municipal hall, at that 5 way intersection you make a right and it's directly behind the service center (jiffy lube, mr.good lube, one of those) on your right. It's hard to explain I just know how to get there. At first when we went there they didn't know of the sr20 swap, then about 2 years later we went back and asked them again. They said they had done many and it was 1000 bucks to do it. This one place in ocean said they would do swaps too. It's a bodyshop where 35 splits near the train store, pass the storage units and around the back. I suck at giving directions sorry, I just can see how to get there in my head. My friend bought his carbon fiber hood for his 2000 prelude sh at tronix.

Hey Guys, just got my car back from PowerZamCam....all that I can say is H....S....!!! As long as you realize they work nights and weekends for now, they kick arse. There is a llong thread on vert swaps about getting the cruise to work after doing a swap, seems like no one knows how. They did it no problem. When a part was bad I supplied, they drove in the middle of the night to a 240 buddy and got me a used part to replace mine with no charge. (1 hr drive) Just call or tex message, that is the best way to get hold of them. Be patient, it will pay off. They have a passion for doing it right, and for a reasonable price. My car is perfect first time around.

A few of my boys go to Night Shift Performance. hit em up if you'd like. I think I'll get work done with them in the future because I know them pretty well through other people. They do good work, the owner is actually working on his new V-mount turbo SR.

732-586-4309 is the shop number.
