R & N Garage is a very good company. They do a good deal of work on Nissan's, and Mazda of course. I do not see why he would not become a member of My350z.com. In fact, I might see him around the 20th of this month when I have to run up to San Antonio.

3rd for R&N garage. He is a older guy and doesn't have time to be on the internet since he has a business to run reason why you won't see him on here. But he is a sponsor of zsport.org (z club of San Antonio) and has been into Nissans for a long time.

How about giving credits to AX8 Tony Motorsports or D. Clarke Racing Garage for all the springs installed for 210 VQ'z

Thats what you heard. We actually do mostly all our installs. 1 turbo, 3 superchargers, BBKs, coilovers, springs, fender rolls, etc. Alot of the SA guys that know us can vouch on that too as we have helped them out.

To the OP: if you need help with the springs and you have a garage or driveway to do them at, shoot me a PM. I I can help install for beer

If you call taking your cars to Elite or the other place near Bandera to have stuff installed for you I wouldn't call that installing it yourself. hahahaha!

I actually heard it from a guy at the shop you guys take your cars too all the time.

Elite did the nitrous on a couple of the cars (nitrous is one thing I would never miss with), and fabricated a reverse y for one of the guy's single turbo setup. But believe what you want, like I said a few of the SA guys can vouch for us as they have come out to chill at our garage and shoot the **** when we have our install weekends.

Me personally, have helped guys outside of the team with suspension and fender rolls which is what I am pretty good at

If you heard it from a "shop we take our cars too" then tell us the shop. All this "I heard" stuff is pretty lame bro. Have you seen our cars at those shops yourself?

Hey Sick, do you have a fender rolling tool? I have 285s in the rear now, and every once in a while I get a small rub, but nothing much.

Nope I do it with an sch40 pipe and a heat gun. But it comes out perfect. Ask z33allme, atx350, kornflake, sak, meaj82, just to name a few. I take my time to avoid paint chips, a good 30 minutes of on each side.

OMG! What is that shiny thing they are putting on? What do all those pretty pipes do?
