hifba.com is our site. We have a good bunch of guys out here that are your best bet for help. Most of the shops are ricers and the rest are off-road.
Oh and shipping is a BITCH!!!!!!!!! My lid and t-stat were like $40

if you find a bunch of people that buy parts and have them sent to your house you ship them with your household goods and they pay you a couple of bucks you can make some money quick. Especially on big things like headers

my brother in law is stationed there as well as one of my best friends sons. They have varying opinions on the place from week to week so it seems. Ray(my buddys son) has a 36ft Tiara sportfisherman there in the harbor. When he's back from the big island get with him to go fishing. He's got a 2nd gen firebird in Florida that's going to end up with an LS1 in it eventually. He's a great kid too.
