Any Houston FXers?

Didn't see this thread till just now - would have liked to meet.

What work was SGP doing for you?

I want to get my transmission done at SGP - valve body upgrade, torque converter and cooling. Any experience with that? Anybody I should talk to at SGP besides Mark?

Thanks.

There are around 5-6 from Houston alone but it seems that myself, Jumbo, and Fireball, are the only consistently active members. Sucks!!!!

Hey I'm here! Just maybe a little quieter than others.. thats all. :.smile:
 
Everyone beware of SGP! My buddies 350z was built by them and the engine blew after one day of driving...I have heard a lot of bad things about that shop.
 
+1. I've heard a couple of bad things about them.. quality and prices..
I don't have any personal experience with them however.
 
They were known as a really good shop back in the day. Things got bad recently, but I don't know if it's been straightened out. I think Katrina/Rita really affected them too.
 
I talked to SGP about a month after the hurricane and they were hurting bad. Even before that, I heard they had some quality issues. But as far as I know they are the only place in Houston that has experience with the VQ35DE and our transmission. If you look at their website, they have a TON of cars done. No doubt bad news spreads like wildfire, but the problem is that Houston doesn't have a lot of shops - that I know about.

There is also Secret Services - building a good reputation for itself, but not much 350/FX/G35 experience.

I'm still looking for a local transmission shop - a place that can do a torque converter, valve body upgrade and cooling. It's the last major mod before I try to go Turbo. If any of you guys know some local places I can check out - I'd be much obliged!
