Hi,
Rhode Island resident, I'm wondering if anyone knows of any Z specific shops or just reputable places in general in New England that would be able to fully service my car. Included but not limited to installing coilovers, suspension/diff bushings, 100k maintenance, general trouble shooting because there are a couple minor issues I want addressed but don't have the time or resources to figure it out myself anymore.

Haven't posted in this site in years I have no idea if this is the right section to post but it's clearly one of the most active.

Thanks.

 

Patriot nation eh... Be gone with ye!

Check your tire pressure I'm sure that will fix your problem

 

I would take it to a dealer for any maintenance issues mainly because they are qualified but have to stand behind their work. Contrary to what most people think their not more expensive than most. As fsr as coil overs ? Sure they could do that as well. Now when it comes to high performance a specialty shop may be a better option. Go falcons.

 

Where in RI?

 

Somewhere i dont wanna be

 

Kaizen... Never used them or been but they seem to be somewhat popular up here.

 

There is a Z specialty shop in Danbury CT called RDZ Motorsports. I went there to get my car tuned and for some maintenance. They do great work and are very knowledgeable with Zs. Their hourly rate is as high as a Nissan dealer, but I personally have not had good overall experiences at Nissan dealers. I drove over three hours to get to RDZ, but the specialized knowledge in Zs was worth it to me.

Edit: I was there in 2014. Apparently the shop is no longer in Danbury, it is in New Milford. They used to specialize in Zs, now they seem to be more broad. Not sure if its the same owners as before (was owned by Scott Cole and Rich Amatulli when I went).

 

Your assed out dude. There is no-one. Kaizen sucks and don't return calls/emails. I had my car in with them a few years ago for basic stuff and they didn't address all of my concerns and I think they installed my diff mount incorrectly.

There is a shop in NH which is decent, the problem with all of these "Tuning" shops is they think they are high end Ferrari mechanics working on turboe'd civics and charge premiums.

I've had to go to regular mechanics for services.

 

I know someone in Rhode Island(woonsocket) who can do that.

He's been working with me doing custom automotive work for over 15 years and longer before that, but your problems seem to be something any general mechanic can do with the exception of maybe correctly adjusting the coils, but even that should be straight forward.

 

See you on Friday Shane!

 

I just checked out your website and your shop looks great. I'm glad to know you exist, as I've had trouble getting a good alignment in NH.

 

Thanks,
Where in NH are you located?
Yeah we do a good amount of work, suspension is certainly our niche focus but the speed shop does everything (AJW Performance, sister company).

We offer alignments, corner balancing, installations, coilover rebuilds, shock dyno, etc. Come by sometime if you are semi local, we are about 15 minutes from New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
