Default Reputable South Florida Automotive Shops

Hey there guys, I have had a hard time finding reputable shops out here in south florida. I live in the Ft. Lauderdale area and I have been searching around but its mostly honda ricer shops. Does anyone know any good shops out here that can fix lexuses that are willing to do swaps and electrical work?

Thanks

Thanks a lot GotRiceYo, How do i move this thread? and I have a 92 sc400 that is giving me some electrical problems. I need those fixed. I also am saving up to either boost or swap my current 1uz. I am a little undecided which one to do tho.

I got a 2J VVTI swap with a FMIC and exhaust. It was done in about 5 days and everything works. AC blows cold, tiptronic still functions and everything still looks stock. I was there before he put the motor in and he changed the timing belt, water pump and seals. Give him a call and talk to him, he always answers
