Performance Shop (Tuner Bash 04)

* Sorry I know it's alot but please read through it! *

Alright guys! Well, I got a new job today working at one of the only Performance Shops in Daytona Beach. I was doing web design stuff for them and one of the guys got fired so I just jokingly asked for a job. We'll turns out in all seriousness the owner was interested as he knew my sales, car knowledge background. So of course I jumped right on it as it's what I do 24/7 anyways and getting paid 3 times as much as I was at Outback...

Anyhow, not to rant and rave, but I'm really excited about me being 100% in control of what online sales they do. Now, Tuner Bash is coming up very soon and the shop is really involved in it (we have a booth and 3 spots for our show cars). I will mention the 7thgencivic meet with the owner to see if we could make it the meet location and see if we can cook out. I think it will work out perfect if you guys wanna do this. I'm not total sure what are schedule will be for the days around and on tuner bash so if I’m at the show evidently we can't do the meet at the shop, but I will get more details on Monday.

Along with all this I will become a vendor on the site and offer GB's and Retail sales. Now, I still have to really talk to the owner and get new vendors so we can get better prices than what they have in the shop. What this means for all Florida Guys! We'll the same parts offered everywhere right in your back yard at competitive prices. I will set all sales up where you can pickup or I will ship to you. The good thing is you can get all the parts always sold out of California but not have to wait 5-6 days or pay expensive express shipping to get your parts. Please post anything that you would like to see sold, see GB’s on, and anything else. I'm going to cater to all of the Florida people, and you will influence all our sales greatly.

One Last thing! If you don't know me which most of you all do either from 7thGenMeet's, Online, or SPC Camber Kits I'm in a dilemma. I can either add the vendors membership to my current username which alot of people know or I can get a totally separate one for the shop and post something about it being me, yada, yada, yada... Which do you think would be better?

SPC gives me such a better deal on the full kits (front & rear) they're actaully cheaper than just the rears. You can order them right off the site.

Sure does! I have to redo a whole buch of stuff because I had no autority when doing it freelance for the shop before. Online sales section will change a whole bunch when I get all my ducks in a row (lol....my first day working is Monday and I already have a list a mile long of things I wanna change, get, etc....lol)

Sweet dude, finally a job that you can really enjoy. Congrats. Anyways, I was wondering, is this just a performance shop or are they an install place also. From the looks of of I don't think they are.

On the other note, the only bad thing we have to do is pay for taxes .

Well right now it's both, but the shop and install are in two different buildings. Now, we have a new building that where hoping to move into before tunner bash and the shop and install will be in one building. The owner Todd already ordered brand new low-pro lifts, machines to mount/un-mount tires, and a balancer. The showroom will be almost 3 times as big and we have order 3 times as many parts to load the showroom up with stock. There is also room for a whole car which i belive Todd will leave is EVO 8 in there. Yea, the downside is the tax but unless you buying a few g's in parts tax isn't that bad. Hopefully this answered your question.

I'll also post some pics of the shops EVO 8, and Supra.

It's exactly 3 miles away, and will take 5-10mins depending on traffic. Here is the map quest directions to 600 north from the shop.

I don't know about the tires any more....i have 4 brand new kumhos that came with my wheels, but i want better tires, and i won't be able to fit a new set in the car on the way home....unless i could sell the old ones while i'm down there. You could shoot me a price if it's not a hassle though, i would like 215-45-16 falken's, but i would definately still like a price on the vafc2. Thanks

Phil
