Hey all,

Im new to this site, and will be using it alot to look up various things. I have a 93 Formula I purchased in 1997. Still using it to this day as a daily driver and love it.

Where I live currently im banned from doing serious work on my car. Last time I tried I replaced upper and lower control arms, got a notice from the community if it wasnt done by end of business day, it would be towed from in front of my garage..

Ive tried various shops in the area. Cartek in Garwood, SLP in Toms River, some various locals for this and that.
With my current sched and enviroment im looking for a good shop to do various things, maybe replace headers again soon, suspension work, recently got the cat replaced and was raped $700 for a job that leaked and scraped over speedbumps.. That took 3 tried to get it right at that place..

Im in middlesex county/piscataway. I am willing to travel anywhere if the work is good enough. Anyone have suggestions of any places worthy of such tasks?

Thanks in advance-

J

im sure there will be more local places, but i always recommend Garfield Auto Center in garfield to everyone because i know the owner very well, he builds my engines and does miscillaneous stuff on all my cars, fantastic at body work too. 973 478 2311, talk to john and say melissa sent you if you go.
