What are some of the recommended shops in the Orlando/Windermere area? I know Performance Race Solutions is one of them. Any others that are great with Zs and maybe even Uprev certified?

LostSol · 04-11-2013, 06:08 AM

I've been to PRS, Rev Works, and Kami Speed. I think of those only PRS does uprev tuning, and Rev Works is my shop of choice as of late, they have always taken good care of me.

Huck · 04-11-2013, 07:06 AM

Kami speed is in Florida? Didn't know that. Titan is the only other place I can think of, seen a few nice gtr's come out of there.

And yeah, Rev Works is a good place to go, Marti and the guys are great. They do a LOT of motor work for Z's, Suby's, BMW's, and Toyobaru's.

Kami Speed: 7901 Kingspointe Pkwy #23, Orlando, FL

We held an Acura meet there when I was a regional coordinator on an Acura forum.

Well I got my steering lock replaced under recall today! I took it to Universal Nissan on OBT in south Orlando. Minor gripes after were it makes a weird noise now when you hit the start buttom, maybe because its a different type of switch? The second was I had called last Teusday (today is Thurs) and they scheduled me for a 11am appt. When I got there about 10 till 11 I was looked over and finally they figured out I was the one who had the car which needed to be fixed. Guess they thought I coudlnt afford it, I was like really??!! Then the guy said oh well we can get it in around 2 maybe 3!!!!! I said Wait....I scheduled over a week ago for 11am apt. Why do you even take appts if you are just going to push them back hours on end. He gave me the sob story about the que and so many cars in front of me. I said well then dont setup apts if your not going to make it. I said if I woulda known I would have just went to the Nissan in Cocoa and chilled with huck since his was done in an hour or so. He walks in 10 mins later after taking my car and said "oh were gonna get you done before lunch!" I was like good now that sounds better. Overall it was a success, just didnt really enjoy how things rolled at first.

On a side note, they had 6 z's on the lot, 5 of them were auto!!!

but I did get to see that new midnight blue up close and I can see why it would appeal to many people. Oh and they had a camaro ZL1 vert roped off in the showroom floor...of the Nissan!!!!??? haha FUN TIMES.

LostSol · 04-11-2013, 03:07 PM

Bill Ray Nissan in Sanford took really good care of me when I went there. Just FYI

AlphaSnacks · 04-11-2013, 06:34 PM

Wow, Kami Speed is really close to where I live.

They're a great vendor here, I think I got my Swift springs from them actually.

How is their work?

Huck · 04-12-2013, 01:12 AM

Yeah they had the second best price for Swifts that I could find. I may have to go over there and see what's up sometime. Are they just a store, or do they have an actual garage?

LostSol · 04-12-2013, 07:08 AM

When I went there I just saw their store front but Im sure they have a shop since I've gotten quotes for work done there. They're cool guys, pretty laid back.

I will say however that RevWorks does a great job, I cant recommend them enough!

Huck · 04-12-2013, 07:51 AM

Cool cool, yeah I went to Rev Works with a concern about my car, they spent about 20 minutes looking it over for me and then explained what was going on and that it was nothing to worry about, and then they refused to charge me. Good guys in my book.

Osiris · 04-12-2013, 08:17 AM

When i bought my wheels and springs from Kami speed, they didn't have a garage at that time. So, typically you want to go to a shop that has had experience working on your car before and maybe has been around for a while. Just my 2 cents.

AlphaSnacks · 04-12-2013, 11:44 AM

Agreed.
