Thumbs up Where are all the Good Mechanics

im planning on purchasing a G in LA on the 24th of this month and would appreciate any info you have on GTM.

Moreover, i learned from the seller that the car has a rack and pinion leak and a control box needs to be replaced (gauges) for the vehicle. do you know where i could take the vehicle and have all those fixed along w/ a compression test on the engine?

thanks in advance guys.

thanks for the reply back. i should have elaborated that its an 03 G35 so i know its not going to be perfect. talked to the owner and asked him to be honest w/ me since i would fly there and find out the condition of the car anyways.

he told me he has a rack and pinion leak and a control box that needs replaced for his gauges. it has alot of MODS on it so im going to take a chance granted the compression test does well.

does anyone know of any good mechanics in the LA area?

I'll tell you straight up, that 03 G35 is a piece of ****.. Has 2 very uncommon issues, that car is whack. God knows what its been through. Look for something else.
