There isn't shit in Ohio...

If you want to set up a shop in Ohio, do it in Columbus.

Ohio sucks for shops, hell we even have 3 honda plants, 2 of them are like 15 minutes away from me. Hell from that you would think there would be a couple of shops.

I am moving to Columbus in the fall. If there isnt anything there someone better open one, I am going to go crazy if not! I am leaving Orlando where there is like 50 shops to go to Ohio State University and there are no shops

Umm doesn't Vince live in Ohio? He is co-owner with PRI-Racing.com.

Just saw he lives in Ridgeville. He is a good guy, I have bought things from him, and everything went smoothly. He has good prices too.

Ever hear of Stylin Compacts their in cleveland and theres summit racing in akron it not to good for imports

flylwsi · #9 04-27-2002, 01:52 PM

stylincompacts isnt really a shop... we have a big ace showroom, and lotsa stuff in stock...

there are companies like turbo 4 up here in cleveland.

there is a really nice little shop called www.slickmotorsports.com
he has done all of my motor work, as well as alot of turbos and b16 swaps... he is currently building a 600hp 3000gt tt. nice stuff... nice car...
he works quick, charges reasonably and is reliable...

im sure toledo has some stuff goin on...

a couple of my friends are in the process of opening a new shop to do everything for anyone who wants to go fast..

but if you wanna come set up shop, somewhere b/n cleve and columbus would be a great place to buy some land and throw up a big warehouse/garage... way better than livin in the city and leasing a building...

I live in Cincinnati Ohio and yes there are shops here. Bazs Racing which is by lunken airport about 15 mins form downtown cincinnati, and Xwheels in Westchester about 45mins from downtown. Bazs has a Interga Type R w/ 500hp at the wheels dyno tested.

Columbus has one shop that I know of, Passen Motorsports. The only problem is that so far, from what I've seen, unless you spend a lot of money there they treat you like shit. I've gone in there numerous times trying to get some info on parts for my 92 civic dx, but since I didn't own an si or ex I was given the cold shoulder. In fact, I'm now planning on doing an engine swap next year and I'm actually going out of my way NOT to use Passen to do the swap. If there are any honda owners in the columbus (specifically westerville) area or toledo, let me know. I'm in westerville right now, and am in toledo most of the year for school.
