edot: Also the guys that work there are really friendly + willing to give any help you need. | I agree with everything in this post
Every experience I had with the guys at Garage 5 was positive

Pretty sure that Dinamix guy was joking.. I think anyone here will know that honda and parts are not exactly rare- unless your going for some uber rare jdm fanboy parts.
Question to the OP: What are you going to use to tune? G5 does not work with Chrome- which I prefer. That may be a very important deciding factor for you; you always need a good tune and not some lego build.

Holy shit, everyone calm down about the Honda comment. It was blatant sarcasm.
On topic:
I've heard a lot of good things about Garage Five as well and I'll be taking my FG2 there once the K-Pro equivalent is released.

It really depends on what you're looking for.
A&J is well known for building very quick track cars.

But yeah, if you start talking Forced Induction and stuff I know that it could change around.

I think majority of this thread has voted for Garage 5 in richmond
Give them a call and see what they can do for you (I dont believe you stated exactly what you need done)
You've got nothing to lose but 5 mins of your time
