Vic's hourly rate is between $65 and $70/hr. ( Mention you are a member of "Driver" for a discount)

So figure around 2-3hrs plus a performance alignment( without any problems).

He has worked on many cars from "Driver" and is a Nissan master mechanic. He is a very nice guy to deal with and not out to take your money. He is highly recommended around here.

I might be visiting him next week.
Everything is going great!!! I'm on holidays for a couple of weeks.

Here is a link to a post I started awhile back. It lists peoples favourite places for a wash...including DIY.

With your rims I would only go to a "rail less" wash or DIY.

How much of a drop have you got in the front?

Have you had an alignment done since lowering your car? If so, how much out of spec is it?
