Duron Tires off Stuebner Airline and 1960...PERFECTION.
Had a new set of Toyo T1R's installed at a great price and ZERO
issues with my Nismo rims...not a scratch! They also will fix flats,
leaks, whatever, no scratching the rims. I have used them several
times, and not one single issue.

Anybody Know where I can get a GT spec Lower tie brace bar installed and a few other things?
I took my car to protechnic but it seems like they couldnt install it cause they need "longer Eccentric Bolts" -I never heard that before. Everyone else has said the gt bar is one of the easiest things to install.
Maybe they just forgot... I dont know.
Any other recommendations in the southwest for a quick job?

I have ALL the GTSpec braces (4pt & fender sitting in garage). The rear tie brace is very simple that even you can do in your garage. I'm in Spring if you need help. I'll install it for a beer.

Anyone got any recommendations for a place that can do paintless dent repair around the NW 290/Beltway8 area? I have a couple places in mind but would like a recommended shop.

Unleashed Autosports near where 610 meets 290. They installed my springs and rotors/pads all around while i waited.

Fast, inexpensive, and very honest...highly recommend them!

Some might know I was having boost problems since the Texas Z Party over Father's Day weekend. Well I finally got it up to JTran & Amber today. My Z Is now running strong and back to normal.

Thanks JT & Amber!

So I should stop by to check this shop out whenever I have some free time for future parts needs then, Robert?

Btw, Im just wondering if I can have a huge discount for having a TRAN last name, too?

Only place I know of is Technosquare out in Cali. Check with UpRev, I think they're in Dallas though. Even then, I don't thing there is a way for you to reflash it back to stock by yourself.
