Default mod friendly dealers

so i was doin a little research on the boards and other than fremont nissan which is listed under mod friendly dealers many people recommend steven's creek nissan. For those that get serviced by steven's creek, up to what level of modifications do you guys have? I'm planning on a few airflow mod's and possibly suspension.

I was at their dealership earlier today and the salesman was trying to con me into buying their base model. I told him i wanted track so he tells me i can just install everything extra the track has ("only brembo brakes" he said ). Then he goes on to tell me that if i don't get the parts installed by the service dept. they will void my warranty?

So I'm planning on ordering my track 350 sometime next week. The guy at SC nissan was just a salesman so I didn't bite on his word too much, but I would like to know how you modded 350zers w/ SC have been doin with their service dept. and the warranty.

thanks
Dave

Falore Nissan in Sunnyvale is mod friendly. Folk at sale/service/part even refer you to place where you can mod your car. For sale, looking for Mark.

Steven creek..... don't even get me started...
anyways, they aren't too mod friendly after Jim left.
they won't even change my oil cause they claim my car is too low and they can't get it up on the rack...... Not to mention other warrenty repairs they won't even try to do....

Yep. I second that Dave. I purchased & regularly serviced my Z at SC until Jim bounced. The techs there now simply give you a hard time or B.S. just because you have simple bolt-on modz .

Thats good to know. Im planning on taking my car to get serviced for that clunk noise that comes from the rear axles. I have gone to capitol nissan for all my services and no problems. They dont say anything about my turbo setup.

Try Torri with Northbay Nissan in petaluma. I have been treated like **** from many people until finally Torri started helping me. I have talked to him about mods and he is pretty open about it and he works well with the customers, calls to check up and doesnt forget about you.
