Default Tein CS install

I live on Long Island and need to find a quality installer for Tein CS's on my GS430. Any recommendations for a Tein coilover install on Long Island? Also, I was wondering if any one knew if Jerry, from DaizenLex's old post, on Glencove Road is still in business. DaizenLex, I tried PM'ing you but I'm getting an error message, if your out there and Jerry's still around (old post) I'd really appreciate directions to his shop. Thanks!!

Wheels and tires at CORSI is recommended for STOCK vehicles only. They are great, I brought my GX there (I live less than a mile from them). As for modded cars you'll need to go to Wheel Alignment Plus on Terrace Ave in Port Chester, NY - that's who both CORSI and The Tire Rack recommend as installers for modded vehicles..

The guy in Glen Cove Jeff Renaldo is the best. I worked with him for a few years at Lexus and he was a head technician. He went and opened his own shop to do more custom work. If you need his info I can get it

Exotic Auto Boutique in Brooklyn (718) 625-4742. I think they're partnered with Unique Auto of Long Island.

They did the stereo up in my g35. Great job. I shopped the speakers and amps and stuff myself online and then took it to them for the install. Pretty decent install rate.

Dj Skribbles opened up his own auto audio shop out in queens and I went to him and met him there. I just didnt like the vibe and the prices. Yeah its bling bling stuff but I prefer the friendly family atmosphere of Exotic Auto Boutique.

Yeah those queens blvd shops were all hits back in the days of the '88 box shaped maxima with ground effects and neon tubes. Now they really need to get their sh+t together because the internet is hard competition for lower prices on EVERYTHING and new comers to stereo install and performance mods are providing better service and follow up care.

The guy youre talking about, his name is actually Jeff not Jerry. I never went there so cant say much from first hand experience, but i know when i was on the maxima forums for about 5 years, everyone and their mother went to this guy for mechanical work, mostly MEVI installs and tranny swaps. Just like on that forum, a guy named Don (i forget the name of his business) does electrical and audio work. People on those forums always went to these two, some drove for hours and hours.

Good info guys.. I have so many choices now..... But I like the quality work that Gazi's (Aliga) brother does... He did my coilovers at a reasonable price with no squeaks or rattles
