Thanks for the heads up man... ill give him a shout to see what his prices are. I dont really care what his place is like, as long as ones honest does a great job and pricing to be fair. He doesnt have to be the cheapest, i dont mind paying a little more for good honest workmanship.

Thanks dude!

Any ideas what prices are for such a job? Timing belt and i guess that water pump as well?!

HAhahaha i live south sauga and only head central if i see a buddy of mine, so i guess its very possible. :P

I went there to check why im getting a funny idle, made an appointment (needed), he ended up cleaning my IACV and charging me 40$ and car has been running smooth ever since. The second time i went there because the tranny on my parents TL crapped out, the guy said he could do it for me but actually recommended that i go somewhere else because he cant provide a warranty(Mr.Transmission, Aamco). Honest guys, seem to know acura's and honda's really well. As far as their pricing, u can call them and they'll give u an estimate.

and i was actually gonna post here to say that i think i might have seen u around mavis/burnhamthorpe in mississauga about a month ago hahaha

40$ i believe is his minimum charge, and i've heard of acura dealerships charging 80$ just to clean your valves.

Mistazoom timing belt and new water pump (they usually just change them together) would be around 700-800$ at an acura dealership, based on what my dad paid for his about a year ago on his 3.2TL

Spotted a SSM CL in Brampton, parked in a driveway on Sugarhill....lowered. Not sure what year. Anyone here??
