Frisco got pelted. I was at the library with other friends in the parking garage taking shelter...But from the parking garage we could see little elm out getting fucked. Not a good storm and there is more to come in the next couple of days.

Anyone have a complete list of parts I will need for the timing belt service
Hey guys, it's been a few years and need another service done. Y'all still recommend North Dallas Imports?
Anyone closer to Fort Worth that ya trust? Looking to get both axles replaced. Thanks in advance. :-)

^ I went to North Dallas Imports to get my timing belt maintenance done. They forgot to do something.. I forget it was so long ago, that a few weeks later my steering stopped working one day while driving... had to get it towed back to them to fix. They offered me a free set of windshield wipers for my troubles . I've heard good things from them which is why I went there, but I wouldn't go back. Plus it's so fking far away from me. Plus I don't have my TL anymore anyways.

thx for posting your experience. I've been doing a lot of review reviewing and "Callaway's" has just had a high of a rating and they are 3 miles from my home. Think I'll give them a shot. NDI is an hour drive from me (with no traffic).

Does anyone recommend a shop in the Farmers Branch / Dallas area to take a 3g TL for some work? I have some tein coilovers and just don't have the time to do them. Went to a couple of shops and they don't want to touch them. I just need a shop to trust and not get piped on costs. I also have a 94 Civic that needs work so I'm looking for a go to shop for all needs.

If your wheel is a two piece or three piece wheel I wouldn't think anyone would repair it. The barrel would have to be replaced. I cracked a two piece asanti wheel and no one wanted to fix it. Ended up costing over 500 to replace the barrel.

I ended up finding a small shop in Irving off of Grauwyler close to Loop12 and he put them on. I'm still playing with them to get them right but the back left wheel bounces hard. All the others ride good.

Other than ECM. It seems like IFO or any main import event you will see the guys/gals from TXTL showup. As for azine there isn't many meets but I am pretty sure the older guys are willing to meet up for a brew even most don't drive TL's anymore.

Hellooooooooooo strangers... Anyone looking for a set of wheels for TL? 19x8.5 35mm offset. Front tires have less than 2k miles and rear have less than 6k... 245/35-19 Falkens... I'm thinking about switching to 18" instead to soften the ride a little.
