cheekymonkey Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 As above, really. Went to his place yesterday to get some work done on my Evo's block and I'm always impressed by his advice, and premises - plus he's very local for me. Are there any Tuning shops with a similar reputation in the south west that do Supras? Or is it CW all the way (including engine works) James PS After just one week the car he crashed at Castle Combe is completely gutted and just a shell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 What aspect of the "Simon Norris experience" do you crave? Do you just want someone to impress you with advice (I presume you know enough to be able to tell if the advice given is sound?), have a nice building and be close by?

Bobbeh Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I dont think there are that many all round tuners for drag/race prep for Supras.. maybe Paul W, Leon, Chris Wilson, Envy etc would be your best bets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and the more shiny bits the better Seriously, it's mainly the location - and the specialisation. Some places I've spoken to about Supras don't specialise in them, but of course will gladly take on the job for payment. I'd rather go somewhere that lives and breathes 2JZ. Just posting on here on the off-chance that there's a gem hidden away in the depths of Wiltshire that I don't know about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Nicholas Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I'd never trust Simon with an EVO but I am going back to all the bad happenings with the old GTI-R boys. RC Developmets all the way for me CW for the supra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerry Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Just posting on here on the off-chance that there's a gem hidden away in the depths of Wiltshire that I don't know about Would be nice to find a Wilts version of CW. Perhaps we could bribe him to move his workshop down here ! Anybody else use Toyota GT as I've not heard of them before ? G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Anybody else use Toyota GT as I've not heard of them before ?

Wez Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I was at Toyota GT last weekend, nice setup with clean workshops. They made a custom airbox which was pictured here a little while ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJ Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I've been there a couple of times with my Aristo, in fact I'll be in there again on Thursday afternoon with it to get some custom pipes made up for a FMIC. Can't fault the service I've had there This is the airbox mentioned above http://aristoclub.co.uk/forum/files/toyota_gt003_209.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
