Has anyone experienced and can recommend a shop in the So.Cal area (specifically South Bay - Torrance, Gardena, Redondo Beach) that I can trust to take my own engine, tranny, differential oil and have them change it?
I've been to several lube shops here in the Southbay all with bad experiences (one charged me for a service they ended up not performing, other place left drain bolt loose which was scary).
Also, I live about a few blocks away from Power Nissan in Torrance. Has anyone taken their own fluids to have them
change it? How was the overall experience? How long did they take to change it, and how much was it?

Thanks for all the repsonses! I've heard good reviews about Gardena Nissan and Power Nissan in Torrance. Superior Nissan sounds good too, but I was leaning more towards someplace closer. On the downside, I HATE leaving my Z at dealerships. It always seems like just for an oil change, you end up getting your vehicle back with an extra 15-30 miles on the odometer.
Oh, and Signal Auto is a top tuner from Japan so I know they'd do good (they're also so close to Mitsuwa market, so I can do a little shopping while I wait , hehe). Kid's Auto was exactly what I was considering after seeing their ad on the LA Auto Guide.
Has anyone else had good experiences in the Southbay with a shop that changed your own oil?

I just had my oil changed like 2 weeks ago at EZ LUBE right at the corner of PCH and Hawthorne. They did a pretty ok job. Costed me around 58 bucks to get Mobil synthetic. They did everything well except driving that 4-5 ft into the garage where he didnt really know how to drive the Z well.(At least he didnt jerk or stall the car). I stayed there during the whole change just to see if they f*ck around with my car. It took about 25 mins. I'd go back there for my next oil change.
