I just wanted to see if there was anyone in my area. I live in Gainesville, FL.
If so know any goos performance shops in the area?
There is a group of us here in Ocala. In G-Ville itself the only person I know of is Zach Garretson (sp). We will be meeting here again on Saturday the 16th (might be postpone till the following Saturday do to the HIN show in Orlando that weekend) if you are interested email me at JBodiesRUs@aol.com. There is also the Annual FL J Meet the last Saturday of the Month at the Race Rock off of I Drive in Orlando. Check the forum for more info about that.

PS what are you looking at doing to your car...maybe we can help.
Wow. Ocala? Not far at all.
I just started to mod my 02 cavalier. Yesterday I installed poly trans mounts. I am starting with the chassis, then moving to suspension, then I plan on following up with the engine and exhaust; coming up last the body and interior.
As soon as my engine mounts get to me, (taking a month, gee wonder who I bought em from?) I will then do my struts and control arm bushings.
I only plan on going as far as N/A car. No turbo, NOS, or supercharging for me. (had my fill with it working on V8s)
Mounts are easy... I have heard the control arm bushings are a biotch....
Right now I have 2 Z24 and a Ecofire that belongs to my wife(aka she drives), down here in ocala we have about 7- 10 modded J's of all varities and mods.. most of them are into looks and stereo but there are a couple of us into speed...all are N/A cars execpt for 1 Charged and one of mine is running on Nitrous.
If you want send my your phone number and I will give you a heads up about our next local meet.
Keep'm Smok'n,
Chris
Gainesville, Fl right here
Occasionally I meet up with a group of guys at Godfather's Pizza on Thursday nights at 10pm.
Cool! But work early in morning, so not sure if can get out there.
What J do you have? I'm a black 02 cavalier LS coupe w/ 2.2L OHV.
I drive the car in my signature. Its a 97 LS with the 2.2l ohv.
Well, about the control arm bushings..
I have ordered them and they will be here shortly (thanks to Karo at car customs)
I've done firebird control arm bushings before, so I doubt cavaliers are harder. Hopefully I will install them this weekend. .
orlando right here, soon to be gainesville by the end of summer

Hey Zach, what side of town you mostly on? I'll keep an eye out for ya.
