Hey guys, just writing about my positive experience with Al. I met him through his monster sale thread: http://zilvia.net/f/sale-items/296859-s13-s14-maxima-turbogodzilla.html
He's done some legit installs on my car over the past few months. I don't have nearly as much knowledge nor the tools to do the job like he has. Here's what he's done, all with great results:
-Suspension/coilover swap: bought tein flex from him, bought for cheap PLUS did the installation that day.
-Clutch slave/MC replacement
-s14 engine+tranny into an s13: He swapped over the necessary s13 parts onto the s14 to keep the engine obd1. Got it running in a day and a half, stayed up till 8am to get it done faster. Awesome.
-cam swap
His labor cost is very low, Id highly recommend him over any shop when it comes to value. This guy also knows a hell of a lot about 240s. I'll be going back to him soon.

Hi, I'm letting everyone know that Al is the best mechanic I have ever met, he rebuilt a ka24de motor all by himself and swapped it in my s13 for a very good price. My s13 used to be an auto but he installed a manual tranny as well as all the other clutch components. Everything was installed very professionally. I already had the car for 5 months and it drives extremely well. He said he increased the compression on the motor and it does feel like it has a lot more power than stock. Recently I came back to him so he could install a 300zx lsd in my s13 and that only took him a few hours. I left the car with him for 5 hours and when I came back he was finished. I also brought my friend's honda del sol to him and he did a brake job on that car which was also good.

OH MAN AL!!!!!!!!!!!!! let me tell you about this guy! Al is a really helpful guy, we had some nice run ins with my car which turned into adventures and a great time lol. He knows his shit and he knows 240s like the back of his hands. This guy is the MOST honest seller i have ever met. I honestly cant thank Al enough with all his help for everything. He is one of the reasons i am keeping my 240 b/c he inspires me to learn more and try harder.
yet again THANKS Al

Hashiriya415 rocks. He really know about s13 and s14, not only that he did my honda swap from the stock d15 engine to a b18 and then he did the ls vtec conversion,. It's really hard to find somebody honest.
He does not overcharge you for anything, the price he gives you in the estimate is the price you pay nothing else. The months ago i asked him if he could make my car street legal to pass the state ref. It only took him a couple of days.
As i said in the beginning he really rocks and he is my only mechanic.
Thanks al

Awesome guy. Really knows his stuff, and is very honest. Did a 5-Speed swap on my '96 240sx, installed shocks and springs, all at an awesome price the other day. Charges a much lower price because he does his work in his garage.
If you need any help, he's the guy you go to!
