As some of track orientated guys might knew that we are the track preparation shop located at the Irvine, CA opened at the end of last year.
We are here to show you all the M's that we have done in the past, and what we are going to do in the future.

I have heard quite a few great things as well, but that just doesn't seem right.

Sorry that we couldn't help you out. West-end is one of the best places to do alignment and corner balance as well.

Normally when we are booked for more than one month, we limit the amount of customers for alignment and corner balance. However, we still offer 1-2 alignment and corner balance per week for the customers who purchased and installed from us. It's easier to work on the cars that we have known.
Now we still offer alignment and corner balance, but it's probably a long wait. Feel free to shoot us an email when you need it next time.

BTW, do you have more detailed shots of your roll bar?
Unfortunately we don't have any good pictures right now. We are making them in production, I will keep you updated once we have them finished. I guess some time later this month.

I definitely can't wait to see this thread progress.

I noticed you guys made several changes to your brake setup (AP Racing, Brembo, and OE). Would it be possible for you guys to quickly share some thoughts on the difference between all the kits in regards to street/track performance?

Thanks

Cool shots. As for your shop car, the original 2010 version is the best in my eyes...

Talking

See the blue tape boxes on the AW and MR cars?

Those are for:

1. Window-mounted anti-asshat missle launchers on the AW M3.
2. Panty-dropping Spanish Fly Cannons on the MR M3.

I am ordering both
