Not knowing this area super well, I have a few questions I would appreciate any and all help on. I need suggestions for a shop in the area that has Z experience, having a tough time with my gas gauge, its suddenly not working properly. Also, any suggestions on someone or someplace that can re-finish the chrome lip on my rims would be appreciated. Thanks much!! Stephanie

 

I would say Custom Car Care in Yorktown but they are expensive.

The other shop would be SAGE (351-0000) in Norfolk, talk to Joe the owner. He drives a Nismo and the shop has experience dealing with Zs.

As for the rims ask Joe too, he has a lot of contacts and a real good guy to deal with.

 

You can try stock or modified in va beach if joe can't help. I'm sure he can but if you want to price around

 

gas gauge? Are talking about your oil pressure gauge?

I would recommend Sage Auto down in Norfolk near ODU. I was there last weekend and was impressed.

 

Nope, I mean gas gauge. I could be one of three things, I've narrowed it down for the most part. I just HATE people messing with my car, so I wanted to get some other opinions. I'll head over to Sage tomorrow. Thank you so much for the info

 

In that case then you might want to consider the dealership. I live in Hampton too and I take my Z to Promoco Nissan on Mercury. Most dealerships are shady but you can trust them... besides theres a female service rep that I wouldn't mind banging.

As a matter of fact, you can get a free 100 point inspection this month. https://my350z.com/forum/2003-2008-n...ml#post7807166

I had mine done appx two weeks ago. I own a used Z so I was anxious to see what Nissan would uncover.

You can have Nissan do the check-up and then take it somewhere else.

hope it helps.

 

You live in Hampton. TidewaterZ is right there in Poquoson.

 

Totally and completely overwhelmed with Sage/East Coast Custom. Love love love it. They were so nice, I have an appointment to start work on Thursday. Joe was FANTASTIC, and so was his wife. Assuming that the work will be quality, I will get everything done there from now on. Thank you all so much for the suggestions!!!

 

I haven't been here real long time but I've never heard of them... Maybe Jose has..?


I concur...

 

You won't be disappointed - Joe is really a great guy

 

Tidewater Z is expensive too, they deal more with old school Zs.


Glad you like it!! Joe is a great guy and customer service is great.

 

I think their pricing is very reasonable. Todd (the owner) tracks his 350Z regularly so he has a lot of knowledge about what works well for the Z. He did all the work on my track car (an 03) - the whole set up he did was really amazing. The handling now is so incredibly well balanced.
We are very fortunate to have shops like Sage and Tidewater Z in our area.
