Fact of the matter is when a Scientist or Engineers calls you for an appointment and hires you to install a steering rack, the normal response would be to
give them an appointment and do what you are asked, end of story. Honda station did exactly what I asked, and even supplied their own steering rack bolts... for free, and offered to swap my oem bolts on for free.
And the owner has a s2k in his garage, does TONY? Nope u guys said he has a garbage truck.

I even provided him with the full geometry of the s2000 and he showed utter disrespect for my time and his "appointment". Taking in cars without appointments and dragging me on disrespectfully. You idiots need to stop recommending shitty shops like that on here, only reason I went there was because of you two idiots.

Rockstar Garage. All of the S2k Challenge track guys trust Justin with their cars.
I'd avoid Ballade and Alex. I've taken my car their a number of times, and i'm always being up-sold on parts that I don't need or want. The last straw for me was a wheel bearing failure. I had both of my rear wheel bearings replaced at 85K miles with over 40+ track days on them. I get them replaced and bring in all of my own OEM parts (i prefer shopping and bringing in my own stuff so I know what's getting used on my car).
After 10K miles and 2 track days, one of my wheel bearings fails. I take it back, and they blame it on my track use and track wheel/tire setup 17x10+52 255... No. Just no.
I also just replaced the boots on both of my rear toe-links. No other control arms had damaged boots. Guess which control arms Ballade worked on....

He is rude, so is his wife. He is disrespectful. He is too lazy to run a website properly or take proper appointments, or use something called a calendar or digital calendar.
So keep going, this is amusing. If i was running his shop for the past 15 years I would be setting world records. FYI I Can Program computer, design logic with Xilinx, and currently
learning CAD to design parts. Tony is just another dumb white boy to me bro. Astrophysics + Computational Math (CS + CE + Math), enjoy defending an idiot who wasn't raised right.

Not even worth responding to or reading this douchebag's posts anymore dude... He probably said something stupid to Tony to piss him off and he didn't want to deal with the headache and now he's butthurt for being put in his place. One idiot's negative review ain't gonna hurt Tony's business and it isn't worth the aggravation for us to waste our time with this clown.

Wow. He's been given a 2 week timeout. If he doesn't learn from this he'll be removed.
