The Z Shop specializes in Nissans as well. They're located in Surrey ZShop.ca

The owner/head mechanic Dan is super chill and knows his stuff.

Personally I'd only take my car or any of my family cars to TheSpeedSyndicate. They're forum sponsors and some well put together guys.

Didn't have the best experience with Monkeynuts while they were under the name of Z-tune. Something as simple as putting on tires properly they were unable to do. They decided to put the 255s up front and 225s in the rear... Simple mistake that was easily fixed, but how do you not notice the difference? At the time the car was in for some maintenance and replacement of brake pads. Asked them for recommendations on a good set of brake pads, pads they put on were worse than OEM.

not every repair to your car needs a 'nissan/infiniti specialist'.. any of the forum sponsors will be able to replace a knock sensor.

find a mechanic you trust and build a relationship.. you can use a specialist when you want a mad scientist to rip apart the block and replace the piston rings you fried.
