Of course, I have no information about your specific interaction with him other than what you have said above, but I've known Tony for 14 years and he regularly maintains my track car. I've never once had him cancel an appointment or be disrespectful to me or anyone else. I'm inclined to believe that there's more to your story than you're letting on

Not at all just whatever I mentioned above. Very direspectful to waste of week of someone's time. Then his wife made some racist or disrespectful remarks after I gave him a bad review on facebook.

I'm just telling you my experience with him over the past 14 years, and I'm sure there are plenty of other people here that would have the same impression of him... I find it very hard to believe that he would just "cancel" an appointment. Doesn't make sense. Why would he turn down a paying job? Also, I just checked the FB comment that you're talking about. What specifically do you find racist about his wife's comment (LOL with some laughing emoticons)?

I would advise using Billman250's TCT if you need to replace it.

Try Honda Station now called Mister Station on Saticoy and Balboa, Carlos is also an s2k owner a 2005 ap2 with 80k wrapped, will take care of you well, as he took care of mine. https://instagram.com/h4root for pics and my 15 wrx that will Molest Tony's trash Integras, or w/e trash-buckets he drives these days. I was smoking integs and preludes with my 91 celica conv with jdm 3s-gte + hks complete head. Staggered camshafts.

Umm... this thread is from 2013. Seems like Haroot revived a 5+ year old thread to bash a shop. NICE

Is Ballade Sports still open? I would be shipping my S2k to Long beach and it needs some work and garden grove is nearby.
