Hello all my AZ brothers and sisters, I've been collecting parts for awhile and now I'm looking for a good place to get installs done. I drive a '98 GS400 with just under 35,000 miles, stock right now, but I have L-Tuned performance springs and shocks, TRD front brace, SRT intake with ECU, L-Tuned steering ECU, Daizen bushings and (soon to come) a Tanabe Touring Medalion cat-back exhaust. I've also got a Greddy front lip but I have a good body shop near me for that. Of course price is an issue but not the main issue, I want quality installations and I want it done clean and right the first time. I'm in Casa Grande so I can pretty much get to anywhere in the Phoenix area or the Tucson area in about the same time, so all suggestions would be welcome. Thanks for any help, Chris.

 

C'mon guys, did everyone in Arizona do his/her own installs? Surely there most be somebody out there who used a guy they can recommend, even if it was a dealer??

 

I do all my own work. And if you already bought the things, you should think about it too. Not a whole lot of places like it when you bring in parts they carry that you bought somewhere else for them to install.

But there are several performance shops around. Grab a phone book (or look them up online) and ask about specific ones.

A few of the ones I've heard of in Phoenix:
Venus
Intense
Fueled
FullRace

 

Thanks for the info AZGS300, unfortunately I was born with 10 thumbs, all on my left hand, so doing my own installs is out of the question.

Are all these parts new and in box? Or removed from other autos? Do you have all the installation hardware? Instructions?

 

Yes Tammy, all the parts are brand new in the box with all instructions and hardware.

 

Might check with Townsend's Performance and Speed ..244 W. Grant Rd, Tucson. 520-623-2335..

Thanks everyone for the helpful info, you guys (and girls) really are the best community around.

 

I am interested in doing your work,I have been working on Toyotas and Lexus since 1984.I currently work in a Toyota dealership.PM me if you're interested .I am not the fastest tech but my work is clean and I treat my customers car like my own.

 

Hey guys....I'm having this member (John, 3GRFSE) install my 3.76 LSD tomorrow so i will keep you posted on the results. We may have a good tech to go to for all us Phoenix members.

 

Wow, great, I hope everything goes good. I've been trying to get with John to see about him doing my installs but my schedule has been so crazy I just haven't found the time yet, but he seems like a good guy! Please let us know your impressions, I'm eager to set something up with him soon myself, thanks, Chris.

 

John is a great guy and definately knows his stuff......did a great job. Big

 

That's great news, thanks AZ and thanks also for being the guinea pig so to speak, I was gonna do it myself but just couldn't find the time, but now that I know John is vouched for I'm gonna try twice as hard to get out his way.
