Robispec in Texas

The purpose of this thread is to gauge how much interest there is in getting Robi to come to Texas and do his suspension tuning magic on some evos. Obviously, the more people we can get to sign up the better and I'm sure he will chime in with any prices or information people will need.

The purpose of this thread is to see what people need and where they are willing to travel to have it done. I'd need suspension setup and wheel well clearance. I'm in Corpus Christi, but would be willing to go to San Antonio, Austin, or Houston (in that order).

Please post your needs and places.

UPDATE 11/5/06
We have the following people interested:
1. QAT-R, Coilover setup/couterweight/alignment, (Austin, TX)
2. Mistuorder, alignment, (Austin, TX)
3. Lowness - Robispec Basic 2-5,7 (Houston, San Antonio, Austin)
4. Playmajohn, Alignment (S.A., Houston, or Austin)
5. Bellq, rear bushings/alignment/fenders rolled (Austin, S.A., or Houston)
6. Kam, cornerweighing (Houston)
7. Devo330, coilovers/rear


It seems Precision R in San Antonio is going to be the location. Now working on a time. Anyone on the list please notify me if San Antonio won't work.

I'm sure once we have a place it will be easier to set a time.

This will be a "great circle route" so if I get enough evos in a city it can get on the route...

1.Espilir GT Springs ($400)
2.Rear Sway-Bar ($250)
3.Rear Bushings ($175)
4.Rear Bump Steer Correction ($195)
5.Custom Alignment ($180)
6.Roll Fenders to fit 275 tires ($300)
7.Corner Weighing ($250)
All pricing is installed
1-5 is the "Basic" package.
1 your coilovers installed aligned and cornerweighted $400 add 100 if they are already installed and the springs need to be changed around. (but I recomend the rest of the basic -anti-bump steer, rear bushing and rear sway).
thanks
Robi

I'd be all over this and I'd love to get it done in Austin but I can do SA or Houston too.

So do you have access to a lift for all this?

Do you need a lift and air tools? I can find a shop easily here in houston. The question is how much will they charge us for borrowing their tools and lift? What do you think a fair price is for shop rental?

Anybody in Houston, San Antonio, or Austin have free access to a shop?

Does anyone know if MZM would let us borrow a lift? It could benefit them by bringing in customers to see their shop.
