What I have learned over the years is similar to what was posted above. I only go to the dealership for warranty work. For non-warranty work that is out of my mechanical ability and needs a diagnosis, I find a local mechanic to find the issue.

Probably the best Nissan dealership in FL that actually does good service work is DeLand Nissan in DeLand.

Z Tech in Longwood (northwest portion of Orlando) does good work at reasonable rates. They specialize in Z's including the older ones like Z31's.

I currently live in Las Vegas. Just had several mods done to my 370Z (upgraded clutch and slave cylinder bypass, oil cooler, Wavetrac differential, Y-pipe, tune) and had to drive it all the way to Chatsworth, CA and had SpecialtyZ do the work since there are no good shops I've found in Vegas.
Sadly, I don't know of any legit quality Z specialty shops or tuner shops around the Tampa area. For things I can't do myself, I usually go to the Nissan near my house. They normally aren't severely overpriced. Just happened that this time they wanted way too much to do the fuel injectors that I initially thought I needed.

But I will NEVER go to any Maus dealership for anything ever again.
