So I'm finally heading out to SoCal for a "vacation." I'm going with my dad on a business trip, but I was wondering what some cool shops were to go check out. I figured I'd go check out Signal Auto and maybe Motorex (are they still open?) Then we're going to go check out Boyd Coddington's shop and West Coast Choppers. I was just looking for some other shops that have some nice cars to look at. Thanks.

things you will notice while your in so cal... smoking is looked down upon by advertisements, there are plenty gay people, traffic can get crowded, you can buy jack daniels in the grocery store... (kinda cool for someone whos from a commonwealth lol) welcome to zilvia. as far as shops, i dont know nothing bout no stinkin shops. we dont need no stinkin shops.

That burger is making me hungry. Is there really such a thing as a Big Kahuna Burger or was that just in Pulp Fiction?


Street Shine...where is that located?

there is a big kahuna burger. It's in Bournemouth, Dorset. The restaurant is called Hot Rocks.
Check out autobacs but dont buy shit from their overpriced mother fuks. www.autobacsusa.com
SP Engineering www.sp-power.com
RB motoring www.rbmotoring.com

DO NOT forget to eat at In and Out!!

Dates when you're coming out here?
Because there are some events going on like Apex-is Garage sale on march 12th and 13th. www.apexi-usa.com/news.asp?ID=68
Weekly car meets like TAB (tabtuesday.com) Tons of jdm tyt3 hondas, mazda, toyotas and nissans chilling infront of a starbucks.
Theres tons of touge meets, but you don't want to kill yourself out here.

You need to go to Superior Nissan. Specifically the parts dept.

Seriously.

It may not be shit to SoCal guys, but for people who don't have any kind of "scene" in their area, its a sight to behold.

some of the people that work there are on these 240sx forums.

The guys at Superior are not very friendly. But they do have some cool stuff I guess.
