Does anyone have a recommendation for a twin disc clutch install? I'm in Oakland, but am willing to travel to SF, Peninsula, South Bay, etc. Silicon Valley Bimmer quoted $990, which seems quite high. SonicMS charged me $600 to put in my Spec. (I would go back to Sonic if only it had a reasonable turnaround these days.)

if you're seriously looking, i'd either look in the newer forums like the F30 gens or M3post. theres not much traffic on this site anymore. you'll have more visitors coming through the california sections.

they deserve it. i've taken my cars there several times for work. first time they worked on the front end, they failed to tighten strut bar bolts. the second time i came in for an alignment, they fucked up one of my wheels. it looked like they install that thing on your wheel that signals back to the computer without that padding between the machine and wheel and that caused this huge circular scratch on the rim.

Does anybody know where/who i could go to get oem location silicone inlets and outlets installed in the bay area. Preferably someone who has prior experience installing as i had a buddy who had to get inlets re-installed so many times because they would pop off at WOT it eventually led him to leave the n54 platform as a whole. Thanks.

Anyone recommend a shop in Sacramento area? Having trouble chasing electrical issue in E91.

Thanks!

Need new reliable auto shop in the Roseville/Rocklin area for general maintenance and repair. The one I have been going to for over a decade I just don't feel like they want to help me out anymore. Can anyone give me a recommendation of a good Indy shop near me?

davidnthach · 01-21-2020, 03:57 PM

Any shops near the Vacaville/Fairfield area?

IllSic_Design · 01-21-2020, 04:26 PM

I just moved from Vacaville to Woodland /\. I can do most anything that needs to be done, whether maintenance or otherwise. Work is performed out of my 3 car garage.

Hit up Greg at Performance Dynamic in Santa Clara, tell him Alec sent you. He just did my oil pan gasket today, he's a great guy and his pricing is fair.

I might need walnut blasting and I'm really not trying to spend more than 350$

Couldn't tell you exactly what he would charge for that, but if you contact him and ask him for a quote you can find out.

Autobahn Motor Haus

If you still need a quote for all that send us a message!

Am I allowed to throw my personal business for vinyl wrap/ tint/ detailing/ PPF into the mix? Or should I tag someone who has done business with me on here to vouch instead?

IllSic_Design · 08-05-2020, 11:35 PM

yeah be careful, MODS on here don't like people advertising without paying

I forgot that I actually had my prior account deleted because I accidentally advertised 😂 I wasn't a shop back then, I was just a guy doing mobile wrap work

Alphawerks · 08-06-2020, 01:19 AM

Also, if anyone remotely close to the South Bay doesn't use Greg at Performance Dynamic for their maintenance/ performance mods, you're making a mistake.

Can any local shops install new headlight lenses (perfectly)?
