Default Gresham/Troutdale reliable shops

Hello all!

I'm officially moved to the PNW to the east Portland side with my 05 and CR, and I'm absolutely loving the drive out here with the cars. So much that my 05 developed the sticky clutch pedal towards the floor and the CR blow off valve is fluttering way more than it was in FL.

The 05 is likely the fork needing some grease and if I can't finesse that, can anybody recommend a reputable local shop to help me with that?

Thanks and I look forward to meeting everyone at a meet someday!

Welcome! I’ll let some others recommend a shop. I do know that one of the main mechanics at Gresham. Honda is familiar with the S2000 and he’s worked on my NSX a few times as well.
when I had my CR, my fork developed an imperfection that actually had to be grown down to make the pedal smooth again. Hopefully yours is just some grease! Please take a look at the 2024 drives stickied at the top of the forum! Would love to see ya on one!

I appreciate the welcome!

I managed to regrease the fork on my own, it was easier than I thought. However, the fluttering I figured out the DV on my setup may be too small for the system, though it was originally a Kraftwerks DV. I bought a Forge Supersize Valve to replace it. However, the connections are too small for the Forge, as expected, so I'm looking for some recommendations for a fabricator in Portland that can help with a new charger pipe and intake to accommodate the connections from the old Kraftwerks kit. PSI? AR?

Thanks everyone.
