CounterSpace Garage (CSG)

I have nothing but good things to say about CounterSpace Garage.

As a vendor, they have always shipped everything I have ordered timely, usually receiving the goods within one week. That includes the Tein SRC coil-overs for my FR-S, plus many of the consumables they carry (brake fluid, oil, brake pads).

The real value however comes from their track experience and first-hand knowledge in using the products they sell. @CSG Mike is a regular at most HPDE events in SoCal, and he always provides straightforward, "no BS" answers to my questions about car setup, upgrades and racing in general. @CSG David also knows his stuff.

Even now, with my damaged FR-S waiting to be either repaired or scrapped after a track accident, CSG is still proactively supporting me and offering their help.

@juliog: I second everything you've written. On and off the track, CounterSpage Garage is excellent. There is no hesitation to share the wealth of knowledge they've accumulated, as well as product information for the vast amounts of aftermarket goods they have access to. To top all that off, CounterSpace Garage has the best customer support I've seen to date, from pre-purchase inquiries all the way to proper implementation and fine-tuning.

I too have nothing but a great experience with Counterspace Garage. @CSG David was more than helpful with getting my order in. Everything was taken care of prompt and professional. Ordered wheels on tuesday night, delivered to MO friday. No one should hesitate placing an order through Counterspace. Thank you, and have a good night

Throwing my hat in the ring for the fine folks at CSG. I've ordered many key parts for my build through them and my only complaint is that the parts tend to show up earlier than quoted so I have to deal with excessive happiness and joy.

On top of being vendors, they are at nearly every track event in SoCal and @CSG Mike and @CSG David are both a wealth of knowledge for driving instruction as well as car setup and I feel like both I and my car have improved greatly as a result. If you don't know how to properly set up your dampers, hit up Mike. This is one of the best services I've gotten for car setup and I would highly recommend.
