How much do they charge for 3 pulls?

Look up what shops charge for long tube header installs. $700 is common. Paladin is a good place to have work done as well. Reasonable rates. Regarding dyno's, I've seen as low as $40 for 3 pulls when they are on promotion.

This is Johnny's number if you want to check. (702)-7eight5four1six2

Damn! I don't think I've paid that much for work. I've always done it on my own, especially when I lived in Utah and had access to a lift and tools. Thanks for the info firehawk.

Tazicon 03-08-2013 04:52 PM

I have tools but no lift or experience with the "demon Bolts". I have read about them both on here as well as the G37 site. I would have to tackle that one myself before offering to help someone with it. I hate paying for exhaust work but sometimes you have to do what you have to do.

SS_Firehawk 03-08-2013 05:00 PM

Well, maybe you both can attack the demon bolt. Exhaust is easy with some ramps.

Tazicon 03-08-2013 05:02 PM

Lots of liquid wrench and air tools for the win! lol

Infamous 03-08-2013 06:21 PM

We possibly could, if I don't get it installed by then. What side of town are you on tazicon?

JENZ 03-23-2013 01:16 AM

I'm out of the country till AUG. C&C is a pretty cool. A good amount of Z's come out. It's in Henderson. Don't remember the cross streets, but it's less than a mile from the 215. I think it's Eastern. there is a Walmart and Target near by. Well, I guess technically green Valley.

Yup. C&C is just too early for me personally. There are G and Z meets just about every Wednesday. There is a Facebook page for it, which is where I came across them. There is also a forum but it is nearly a ghost town. :confused:

Infamous 04-25-2013 06:55 AM

Anyone in here drive a Monterey blue with 'Z4RN' vintage plates or a gun metallic nismo in Henderson with 'NIZZMO' vintage plates? I see the nismo at golds gym on stephanie .

JENZ 04-25-2013 09:33 AM

Nope not me. Btw FYI for the locals I am selling my 19" rays sports wheels. See ad in classified section. Prefer to deal locally.

Have you posted pics of your new ones?

If so, I must have missed that thread. :(

I posted a sneak peek

Infamous 04-30-2013 09:34 AM

How's the z looking, Jenz? I have some new wheels coming in too, Te37's. They need to be refinished though. Anyone know a reputable, but affordable powder coater?

JENZ 04-30-2013 09:45 AM

Snail motorsports I hear is a good one. That or shine shop.

Infamous 04-30-2013 11:24 AM

Thanks! I want to do 24k gold. Like this:

I asked for a quote from a compnay over on sandhill but never got it. I need to get some rims powder caoted as well, but in a gloss black. I will give these guys a try.

Tazicon 04-30-2013 12:06 PM

Dang my dyslexia is bad today. Just asked for a quote from Snail.

SS_Firehawk 04-30-2013 12:10 PM

Keep me posted, I want to do my SP rims similar to the Volks Formula Silver color.

How much did they quote you?

Might be easier to call them

Tazicon 04-30-2013 06:08 PM

$95.00 per wheel, 4 to 5 days. I don't know if different colors cost different amounts, I was looking at gloss black. I don't like leaving the car on jack stands that long but oh well it will be in the garage.

Infamous 04-30-2013 06:30 PM

So, I'm looking at $600 for the whole job. Repairs, high polish(outside source, ~$50/wheel), PC, dismount and mounting tires. Sounds pretty reasonable. Thoughts? I got a bunch of quotes around town. Snail was the cheapest quote I got for the repairs and PC. Give them a call, I saved you the hassle of shopping around. (:

Is that snail's quote? What shape are your wheels in?

JENZ 04-30-2013 07:00 PM

Back when I was considering painting my stockers they quoted me about $660 for all of that with a candy paint. Then when I asked about black they quoted me $600. Not much variation by color.

Tazicon 05-01-2013 01:47 AM

Thats Snails quote. My rims are in very good shape. I also will have the tires dismounted and just take in the rims. I plan to get everything ready and take the rims in on Monday.

Tazicon 05-01-2013 01:59 AM

I have some random parts on one of my cars I need to get painted, do you all have any recomendations for that? There's vents on the side, the rear spoiler and some badging I need done.

Tell em Jennifer Pavlica referred you!

JENZ 05-01-2013 08:05 AM

Oh and the owner is super nice. That's where your emails will go if you send one.

Super Tanooki 05-01-2013 12:46 PM

I was considering having my wheels powder coated but can't decide on a color. Black is nice, but also common. White... nah. Love the color of those Volks, Firehawk.

When are you back in town bro?

SS_Firehawk 05-01-2013 01:02 PM

I leave this armpit later in August, maybe a week or less of outprocessing and I'll be home by the end of AUG.

You and I can go in and get em done haha. That color would look hot on red.

Super Tanooki 05-02-2013 12:49 AM

$400? Ehh I got a few other things I need to do first before powder coating the wheels, including furnishing a new house. But if you get it done lemme know, I'd love to see it.

Infamous 05-02-2013 06:40 AM

I'm about to be in the same boat as you tanooki. But, I have until the end of the year. What part of town is your new home in?

JENZ 05-02-2013 07:53 AM

I want my door handles color matched to the body :(

Mountain's Edge. You can get some really nice places over here for cheap, and it's right on blue diamond so it's less than 20mins to the strip.

House is almost there, but I've got a few things to do on the car too:

- Paint repair after minor hit-and-run in parking lot.
- Two front struts to replace the Nismos I just got - ride's too stiff for my tastes. (Selling near-new nismo shocks and springs if anyone's interested).
- camber and alignment.
- Uprev tune (maybe, before this, I'm hoping to sell my stillen G3 intakes and buy used AEMs to replace them).

THEN... Maybe powder coat wheels. ><
