I went to the shop, Talked to a guy named Bryan ..really chill guy showed me around the shop and let me check out some of his work ..I was very impressed with the work he did ..I am currently scheduled to get a tube front , tubs, and bash bar fabricated for my s13 . Can't Wait !!! You should go to the shop and check it out, you won't be disappointed! Be sure to call ahead.

rob_240 · 03-23-2013, 10:58 AM

That guy Brian is a fab guy and his company or buisness he runs is called sb fab from my understanding, been to their shop talked to Andrew he's a partner I'm assuming from animal auto. I know Ryan the main guy at animal heard nothing but good from him. Just feel unsure from talking to andrew and over all shop look when I went. I been burned once and this time around I'm not gonna. No one has had experimence on engine builds?

Andrews wiring is not the best it looked good but when it can time to start that car it didn't and the gm map sensor he sold me was in fact not a gm sensor and not in working order .

rob_240 · 03-23-2013, 01:55 PM

95 s14 seems like that guy might know a lot but his workmanship looks questionable.

rob_240 · 03-23-2013, 07:42 PM

Somewhere to get the most bang for my buck was willing to spend the 1700 that animal was gonna charge but talked to Johnson at shutoko yesterday and today talked to James at g dimensions and i think g dimensions got them Beat out with their price and having them install and dyno the engine

95_S14 · 03-23-2013, 08:19 PM

rob_240 · 03-23-2013, 08:20 PM

Ya me supplying the parts

95_S14 · 03-23-2013, 08:49 PM

Racing Shop Temecula | Millennium Motorsports give them a call ask for Greg by far the most legit shop I've been to in the westcoast you won't be disapointed

rob_240 · 03-23-2013, 10:05 PM

Ill give them a call thanks for the info, hopefully they'll tell me that 400 hp is achievable unlike animal.

95_S14 · 03-23-2013, 11:05 PM

On what motor because the Ka we just had them build made 401whp and 444tq on 100 octane and that was only 24lbs but it was tuned by Koji on a aem ems v2 , gotta pay to play

95_S14 · 03-23-2013, 11:12 PM

Sorry 454 tq

rob_240 · 03-24-2013, 01:13 AM

Redtop with 87mm 9:1 cp pistons , bc rods basic series , bc 264 cams with springs and retainers. Most likely run a gt30, but now looking into getting a aem as oppose to the apexi fc.

YA DIG · 04-12-2013, 05:06 PM

If your questioning the build quality at Animal Auto their work speaks for itself, nothing but awesome comes out of their shop.

Edwin562 · 04-12-2013, 05:11 PM

Andrew is a great dude, he has done good work.

My expirences with Andrew and animal auto so far have been great took my Monday , my engine had some weird valve noise issue .. He reset valve lash and found I had 3 bad lifters all is well and the car sounds and runs Great

Driven08 · 05-07-2013, 10:53 PM

Great shop. Honest guys who stand behind their work. Brian Rogers also does some nice fab out of there.

KingofKingsGtr · 05-22-2013, 10:14 PM

They don't do any of there own work..... Jus because someone can assemble a motor doesn't mean there an engine builder there are plenty of back yard builders on Craigslist ... I asked if They port and polish? With what flow bench? Haha they don't have one dude told me he jus knows hahahahaha wtf.... There's nothing that's come out of that shop that has anynpower. Not even that rb s14 all looks and they didn't even build that car.......

SUPERSTAR · 05-28-2013, 09:56 PM

I like them cus they are cute. Seems someone is out to destroy their credibility cus maybe they got butthurt or can't be them.

Fanboys I tell ya

nieko · 05-28-2013, 10:03 PM

KingsofKingsGtr, are you joking? LOL

I'm not sure if these are troll posts, orrrrrrrr?

Anyways, Andrew and Ryan are legit ass people that do legit ass work. I think everyone in so-cal can vouch. They aren't here to take your money... and if something goes wrong(which I doubt), they will do what's necessary to make it right.

newblood · 05-28-2013, 10:05 PM

Wow someone needs a good slap. I take these comments very personally offensive
if anyonr has ANY question of our work/professionalism you better ask around.anyone can come down to the shop or the track amd check out our car. i can gaurantee you will be pleased. i know i am with a 1st place finish in our racecar this past weekend at top drift which was built 100% at our shop animal auto in ontario california.
Im gonna find out who this gtr cat is and handle this issue. cheers

rob_240 · 05-28-2013, 10:22 PM

regardless of all the spam, and personal opinions. there is still very little feedback as to people that had dealt with or have had experiences. not looking for what people think of them looking to hear about who dealt with them.

Sileighty_DRFT89 · 05-28-2013, 10:27 PM

andrew and all the guys at animal are as real and honest as people can get. I took my coupe to andrew and not only did he fix my no start condition. he checked every inch of my coupe for damage, missing hardware, and reset the timing, and replaced the hardware on his time which he didn't have to do. I recommend this shop to anyone looking for a reliable motor built for drifting, or any issue you might have. animal auto will get it done!
