WA Maximas where do you go?
Hey Guys,
I'm on the Eastside here in Washington and I was looking for any opinions on local shops. I've got to get my brakes done and yes I know it's a fairly basic job but I don't have the location or the tools at this point to do it. So anyone on here have any place that does reliable good work for a competitive $$$ ? Also can't find any racing shops out here any more... Anyplace you can go anymore and pick up some HID's or mufflers anymore?

The only shop my car goes to is my own garage. I order all my parts online, cheaper than trying to get them locally, if they are even available locally.

NWmaxima.com I'm faintly familiar with because I used to own a 95 civic hatch and rolled with team Mospeed out in Washington and we used to have a few of those guys at our marymoore bbq's.... I gotcha though I agree it's cheaper to do the work I just have no room or tools right now to do it and the brakes have gotta get done soon....

Brakes are something that most shops can do pretty easy. You can just call around for prices.

One thing I would suggest is check the 5th gen forums and get some brake pads that are recommended by other owners and then have the shop install the brake pads of your choice.

You could look for a Les Schwab or a Tire Factory. Just a suggestion. I have had suspension, tire, brake done there. It's not real cheap, but I have had good results

Yeah I am struggling to find good, cheap, repair shops that actually know what they are doing to our cars. And Les Schwab I can vouche for, except they charge you an arm and a leg for the basic things
