turbo toys

for those of you that don't know about Turbo toys... I went looking for a sirius unit, Jim said he thought he had one, so I went over. When I got there he only had XM ones pulled, so he spent about 30 minutes looking for one in every wreck there. Pulling out covers , spare tires and about everything someone would leave in a truck. Sadly he was unable to find one. He apologized several times for my trip over and said he would watch for one for me. All in all they seem to be a good place for used parts for the coupes and sedans, I would recommend them highly.

I know them very well. He put my spacer and pedals in and is on the lookout for some 06 projectors for me. He also had a used TT for like $2,500 several months ago that I was considering getting as well. Place looks like a 350Z graveyard but they do pretty good work, as far as I know anyway.

they are right next to the stadium in tampa. He does alot of work on supras, my old friend used to go there all the time to have work done on his supra. Infact i almost baught a used TT supra off of him a couple years ago, but didnt have enough cash. He quoted me 1500 to have my whole interior swaped out for another color (i wanted black) jim is an awesome guy! I would recommend him to anyone.

I got my new ECU harness from him. Nice guy for sure. Any stock part you might need give him a call.

I bought my 04 6 mt from him a few months ago and it was a repaired his workmenship is great and was more then willing to fix the little things I found after the close of the deal and refused payment for his services on the matters. I highly recommend doing business with him.
