that sucks, you may need to raise the whole car more since the vert is so much heavier, unless its not as bad as it sounds.

Kevin Thanks to Shane's advice, I didnt want to keep you out of the loop, I am getting coilovers (Sonic) in 2 weeks and need a installer. I cant justify driving 5 hrs to install coils at your shop but just wanted to throw it out there.

thanks bip

I drove 5 hours to kevins shop and it was worth it!! Yes driving there is boring but driving back home with mods installed was awesome for me!!

but I got lots of items installed including coilovers and was worth the drive

Alex and keV know these cars in and out

believe me, i completely understand, i made that drive once, and it was no fun at all, and i've driven to key west florida and didnt mind it!

if you find a shop local that you can trust, go for it, if not and you decide or are contemplating making the drive, drop me a pm, even if you just have questions on something

Brain our avys are similar...

Oh and yes Kevin and Alex know their shit!
Kevin actually explained how to lower my car myself over the phone in ten minutes, oh did I fail to mention he told me exactly what wrenches, sockets sizes and other tools I would need from this magical list inside of is head as well!

Needless to say, I still almost smacked myself in the face with the strut Kevin... even after you warned me!

Bip, I think you could handle it yourself if you have the ambition.... I did mine no problem, but I have done quite a few in the past so it was pretty simple.

Hi guys

They are about 1 mile north of Walmart on the right.

TwinTurbo, I searched all the posts looking for a garage but couldnt find one. Spoke to the owner at hartmans and made the appointment.

ChrisB41 · 06-21-2011, 12:49 PM

We do everything except bodywork. From normal maintance to race prep. Depends on what gets done, we can take the car to the dealer if anything needs reprogramed.
