Default AJ-Racing US equivalent?

I know I've heard the name on here before but I can't remember and a search turned up a bunch of useless 63mm vs. 70mm exhaust debates -- what's the name of the shop that is the US Distributor for T1R, J's Racing, etc? Sort of AJ-R's counterpart -- I think they're located in South Carolina....

Thanks!

there are a bunch of US places that get their stuff through AJ.

There is not really a US "equivalent"

a number of shops carry their T1R brand in the states. i think AJR still has a dealers map on their site with info.

Yea, they did a good job of not sending a friend of mines DC5 T1R catback to him, for over a year now. they wont refund him now, and will only give store credit. Everytime he says he wants something else to use with the credit, they try to rip him off and say their price is like full MSRP on a product, to use up the credit quickly. Even when he wanted something at the full MSRP price, still didnt send him anything. Just one view...

That sucks for your friend, I don't understand why he didn't just have them send another exhuast if he's getting store credit anyway.

I don't know much about his case so I don't really want to talk about it but I've heard only good things about that shop...

there are hardly "Tuning Shops" in the US that compare to A&J, AJ is actually a shop you can take your car to and get advice that is developed through actual experience,

there are tons of parts shops in the US and shops that will give suggestions, etc. but as far as real proven experience, and knowledge gained from overseas, AJ is where it's at.
