honest mechanic in 626 area - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Anyone know a good mechanic in 626 area? I just got my car back from a local mechanic and I think he's overcharging me.

-Oil pressure switch 25
-Crank pulley seal/oil bolt 170
-Rear Main Seal 270
-PS pump
High pressure hose
Return hose 450?!

Basically I have a ps leak and a leak from the rear main seal and crank pulley seal? how much should i expect to pay for these repairs?

my homie Mario at gr performance can hook you up, he is very knowledgeable, and he just opened up his own shop, send me a pm and ill give you his number. he has done a lot of very good work for me and his prices are fair. He is about 15 min away from pasadena.

Its pretty labor intensive. your pretty much paying for the labor on the rear main seal. to get to it you gotta remove tranny. the rest are okay i guess. a buddy of mine was getting quoted 500 to replace front struts. and i did it for beer within 2hours. haha

if you're gonna change the rear seal you might as well do the whole clutch lol (i'm serious, unless it's brand new)
