If Not at the Dealership, Where Do You Get Your Car Serviced?
 
Do you go to a favorite mechanic or a speed shop type of place? Just wondering.

Anyone that you can trust with your car.
So if it means spending a little bit more, you should.

How much are we looking at to replace worn out brake pads for the sport package?

I had engine oil change for 3 times so far, and i've done all of them at the local autoshop at my area. I bought my own oil and filter, and labour cost is only arond 20bucks, so i guess it's much cheaper than Nissan dealershop. If you can't trust them, you better spend more to service at dealershop.

I do most work myself. If its something I'm not comfortable with, then I will take it to Sharif at Forged Performance.

I will be doing my own maintenance and will also take a drive to Forged Performance for any serious work.

In the bay area for body stuff, GarageINC since I know the owners and they do good work. Usually exhaust welding I go to Minute muffler in my town, since if it's smal leaks here and there they won't charge me to fix it, and they're quick. Maintainence like oils and brakes is usually done at my house.

Study up, get a manual, and teach yourself. I've saved enough over the years to completely pay for my 370Z...

One name, and one place. Sharif @ Forged Performance.

I change my own oil and put most of the bolt-on parts I buy. If it is anything to time consuming I would take it to a local shop GRD or Sound Performance

i am quite jealous of thsoe who live near forged performance.

Local speed shops for work I don't trust the dealer to do. But honestly, I prefer the dealer as when I drop a lot of money, I don't want any shenanigans from small companies.
