Yeah, that better not be for labor only. I have a hydraulic compressor if you want to borrow it, but I'm up near LAX.
OUCH. What's the book time? 4-5 hours?
who quoted you? PM me if you are shy

I highly recommend JM. He's not going to be the cheapest in town but he does it right at a fair price.ediddynsx said:
i installed mine for free... it was about 3hrs though... all you need is a jack, 17mm, 12mm, and i think 14mm... in and out just like that... but i know it will cost me to get them tuned though....awsomr1 said:
I think ~$200-$300 is a fair range pending on shop.

As much as I like to take it to JM, he is just too far for me to go and wait 4-6 hours doing nothing. Any closer to me, 91701 ???
dang James, you're all the way up in BF Rancho?!?!?!
i've got a buddy up in ontario, we might be able to do an install day for you when we have our next NSX poker night.

That is why, as much I like to joint you guys for OC runs, it is hard for me. at least 1- 1.5 hr each way to the meeting area.
And monthly meetings, I love them, but traffic on 55 and 405 kills me

Status Auto Design in Hermosa Beach will do it for $200 cash... Flat rate in about an hour and half or so..... e-mail me if you want it.... I own the business and will hook you up...and to any other locals that own NSX's....:smile:
For what it's worth, John is about an hour and a half from me and with some patience on my behalf he was able to provide me with a loaner car (TL) to take some of the pain out of coming that far.awsomr1 said:
Finally, and take this for what it's worth, last year I took my car to a "highly reputable" shop that works on a lot of NSX's and was quite a bit closer to me than John was (he wasn't at Cerritos then and was even further away from me). I'm not going to publically dispariage them but I will say that I ended up having to have John fix something that they didn't do completely right and learned later that the climate control/aspirator fan noise and slow drivers window issues that they considered normal and not fixable were, of course, completely fixable if you know what you're doing. I kind of look at it as they are great for 80% of the work if you're not really all that concerned about getting it 100% right vs. 95% right. I'm not that way and so the inconvenience of John Martin is worth it to me to have things fixed right.
BTW - I've got nothing against the other shops mentioned and in fact, I recall very good things about Ricardo at Team Spugen from a few years back when I had my S2000's. But for me, my car, and my money... right now John Martin is the man to see since Mark Basch is too far a drive.
For suspension work, I'll trust only West End. Darin's the man when it comes to suspension work. He's mastered his craft!
