I hate typing long stories but I should prolly take the time here.
Ended up keeping the G so of course I wanna get some of the things I took off put back on. First was back to HKS exhaust and I decided to give these guys a try.
My life is scheduled around my boy (2.5yrs old). Anyways, I called them up to make an appointment to install. I swung by to drop off the parts early and came back at 3pm for the install.
In a way, it almost felt like the dealership but it was probably because I was blocking their driveway because someone came out for my keys while I dealt with my kid who was immediately trying to crawl into a really nice Subaru next to me .... heh.
Anyways, we get to the waiting room. They've got a HD tv there and a PS2 hooked up as well as some drinks and such. I could go on about the next hour in detail but in short, I ended up meeting the owners wife and daughter (I'm really sorry but I'm freakin horrible at names
) and had a great talk while our kids colored with chalk out front.
As for the install itself, everything went smoothly and I couldnt be happier. I'll definitely be going back the next time I need something done, which will prolly be soon.
As for my kid, he's happy the exhaust is back ... he's back to jumping up and down now when he says vroom vroom car ( ... and thats all I ever cared about
)

)i just came back from HB Speed too. I have the same experience like u. I will definitely come back again to get my Coil Over install when i have it. I want to thank John to give me a great deal for all the install that he did, and they did take a good long hour to get all the part install right. I am very happy with that. Even though, i didn't get to talk much with John since he is very busy, but through exchange few word with him. I can sense that he is a great guys and an awsome mechanic.
hopefully he will get more G to come to his shop for future business.
Thanks a again John

I just got my HKS coilovers, spl a arms and (eibach) spc rear camber kit installed at the shop. Staff are friendly and helpful esp manny the guy in front. Help me picked up my coilover wrench coz i forgot it at my sisters house. took me for a ride in his subie.
The install took a long time coz i have a 11am appointment and i left around 6pm. 7 hours
Its just for install no alignment coz when its time to get the car aligned the shop that does it closed for the day already
Does installs really take that long? Also when its time to pay i waited again for someone to charge me coz i think its not manny's job??? its a really weird day. good thing i called in sick to get it installed and go to the meet
Im just glad i was able get outta there and go to the OC meet.
Charge is: 90/hr
got charge for 4 hours
