zcar is one of the few up in norcal.
and i heard that someone from z-car screwed up a cam install but that is just that i heard. i dont know that for a fact.

so who here has gone through z-car and is pleased with their tuning?

Rob is too busy to be active on any of the forums. I know they are a site sponsor to G35driver, and I believe here as well.

Scott Performance closed down over a year ago. There are speculations as-to why, but they would generate an argument, so no point in speculating. It is now a shop for custom exhausts and welding projects.

install + tune actually.

its been about 2 months just because we had to send the turbo to turbonetics to get the new one with water cooled lines and such.
but if you send in for a tune it shouldn't take anywhere near as long as it taking me.

Z-car is really good. I never even question the quality of work they do. just that sometimes it takes them a while to even get the car in there but they wont take the car until they are ready to work on it.
