Default Recommended Koni installer SF Bay area?

Hi

Can anyone recommend a good shop for getting Konis installed in the San Francisco bay area? Preferably east bay?

Thanks

I personally go with Z Car Garage in San Jose. Not in the East Bay like you specified but they are, IMO, an excellent shop to go to. Email him at rob@zcargarage.com & tell him James referred you. Good luck!

I went to Zcargarage. A good experience: professional, friendly, knowledgable, reasonable prices. Much better than the usual surly and expensive treatment at the Nissan dealer. I would recommend them to readers of this forum. Thanks for the tip.

The car definitely feels different with the Konis. Not harder or softer, but a more controlled ride, less nervous than before, and the car does not jump around on the broken Bay Area freeways so much. Is the "bounce" gone? Not 100%, but it is quite a bit better than before.

Glad you had a good experience with them. They're definitely a good shop to go to. BTW...I think I saw your car there. Is your car Chrome Silver? I think Luke had it up on his lift.
