    my 360 needs a new clutch installed.
    can anyone recommend me a GOOD shop to use in SoCal....preferrably LA?

    just moved out here so dont know where to go.

    from what my shop in Jersey said (Classic Coach in Elizabeth, NJ)...they said I will need a new clutch, upgrade my TCU, and change my F1 pump (got 26,000 miles on car now).
    ~$6000 job ------sound about right?

    Auto Gallery replaced my clutch for about $3,900 on my 360. No issues. They have new mgmt. so not sure on current pricing.

    i would definitely recommend eugenio. once you meet and talk to eugenio you'll see why his clients speak so highly of him.

    I highly recommend Tillack, if they'll work on it. Excellent work and service, very professional. Talk to Craig.

    Damian at Fusion Motorsports in Chatsworth (818) 773-9636. He has gotten great reviews here from guys that normally use Eugenio but could not get a timely appointment with him. Eugenio is usually booked for several months in advance.

    Eugenio is definitely the place to go.

    May be a bit far from LA...but more than worth the drive.

    He's got clients driving down from San Jose/ Bay Area.

    You'll get in sooner and he has the time to find a few other issues that he routinely takes care at no cost.

    i called eugenios yesetrday and he left me a msg back. said ~ 8 weeks before he could take car in earliest which is a little too long of a wait for me. but he recommended to go to Fusion. will call them today.

    thanks for the help guys

    i spoke with Fx performance too, but my electricity blackout cut me short from the call. will call them again today

    E's been working on my F355 since 1999. i swear by him and only him. :)

    he has referred alot of work to Damian when it's a better fit for the customer (they live out that way) or he's swamped or it's a 550 I.E. or whatever......
    they don't share customers after the fact,,,,,the referrals are done before that person is a customer of either (just wanted to clarify....it's not after they've normally used either and then went to the other then back and forth ,,,,,etc etc)

    that being said, it's great that we have some great independent resources to lean on when we have problems, located at both ends of the county :)

    won't know until he takes apart the full tranny. im also getting other stuff done like TCU upgrade and other stuff.

    yes. it was a nightmare to tow it back home after the show. the car almost ended up in 2 pieces.

    won Best Euro Other, 2nd place 2 Door Mild, and Best EDM
