well, i got to meet the man himself last night. Robi is a cool *** guy. very hard working, knowlegable guy. helped me out with kick *** alignment specs. i watched him install his custom KW coilovers, front and rear sway bars, roll center kit and an alignment, and the guy's a genius. Modified Auto Salon is now distributing Robispec products so if any of you guys are interested, give Alan a ring 826-5545.

Whoa, you just had him install all of this? I'm jealous! It must be a night and day difference.

Not him... me

Mucho thanks to Modified. I can't imagine how long it would have taken Robi if we had done it in the guy's garage like we planned. As it was we didn't finish until 2am. Then I had to drive back to Winnemucca! I just woke up .

I can't belive the work Robi does, though. The guy is some sort of suspension god who gives out the magical ambrosia of coilovers.

I will be posting more in the suspension forum when I get back home from my race this weekend.

Yup A big thanks to Robi. We all appricate the suspension info you passed along. As turbolag4500 said Modified Autosalon now sells Robispec parts (hint hint) a few evo parts are currently in house.
Good luck to on the Pony Express run Vostok 7. How those brake pads working?
And you forgot a few parts here at the shop LIKE YOUR spanner wrenches for the coilovers and a few other parts.

During the McCarren run, we'll make various stops. I'm thinking Sparks Marina, Leadership parkway, and Alexander lake. Anywhere else you guys want to stop by?
Im there!

I knew we'd forget something.

Hey, anyone in the Reno area not doing anything Saturday, they are having a car show for the Pony Express race cars in Battle Mountain at the high school between 9:30am and 3:00pm. I'll be pretty much the only Evo there.
