Precision Z and Operation Z. Both are in the Valley. Reputable shops.

Btw, Garage Life deals mainly with rotary cars but will work on Zs but its not their specialty.

R1 Motors probably has the best labor prices. Call around and compare. I was quoted 100 dollars cheaper for clutch work with r1 than precision z, specialty z, corner 3, evasive motorsport. Technosquare also gave good price but you have to book 1 to 2 weeks in advance.

Nice. Very close to where I work. I never even knew about this place. Seems legit. Probably has to charge cheaper since the other shops have been around longer. Great find though. Im definitely gonna check him out for my next job.
