Just had them install my toe arms! Steve is a great tech! Talked to him the whole time as he was doing the install and I now have a new outlook on modding my car!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Tell them Oliver sent you, NOT Albert

I am not normally one for talking down any business as I know they need to do what they have to do to stay in business but - I talked with GRC Performance in Mission Viejo, CA for about a week before an installation. They assured me they could handle an installation of a supercharger on my 2003 350z, and I talked with Umberto over a period of several days before I gave him 5000.00 cash to start the installation. Well, after waiting three weeks for the order of my Vortech to go through, the installation was on. Of course, Vortech told me they had the parts in stock so they could ship immediately.
Well, car dropped off for a 10 hour install. Three days later GRC is still having trouble with the wiring into the ECU. BIG MISTAKE! I should have pulled the car then. I picked up the car on a Thursday, drove it home. Was on vacation Friday through Sunday. Monday tried to start car, NOTHING. Check engine light only. Tuesday I called GRC and they agreed to take the car back. I called every two to three days for the next three weeks until they found time to have my car in. I paid the towing for my non-running car. They checked the car and it would not respond. They blamed probled on Vortech computer. Gave me car back non-running. I had shipped to Nissan dealer. Took three days and 619.00 to get running. Jamie at Vortech agreed to take car after that and spent 3 days fixing GRC mistakes. Simple thnigs as using transmission coooler line for fuel line, miswiring the fuel pump, and crossing several sets of ECU wires. Aftet $1100.00 in reinstallation fees, car running great.
Short story, GRC does NOT have any experience with the 350z.

Did you ever go back to GRC to tell them what happen? Maybe they would refund some money back since the mistake was in the wiring install?

Jason, I spoke with Steve about your car last week, you plan on having that engine built anytime soon?
Btw, you see the R32 he was working on that is for sale also? Yeah people, Steve also works on skylines.

By the way, when you go to Corner3 tell them Bob sent you, lol! You tell them that you were referred by any of use and Steve will know where you came from. HE does amazing work, but I have to say that if you are going to do the full package I can help you out with VRT.
What all are you going to do with the car? TT, built engine, suspension, brakes....etc????
