Anybody know of a garage that will rent a service bay with a lift? Some of these places provide a full set of tools, but that is not essential for me.

I'm in the 90034.

Thanks.

what do you need to do? I used to have Celica owners come to my house to have work done.

Thanks for responding, Smaay.

I need to do a valve adjustment on a non-FRS/BRZ daily driver. It's a time-intense and labor-intensive job, but otherwise pretty straight forward. A lift would be nice for accessing and rotating the crank by hand, but I have done it with jack stands.

Thanks, Akuma-ZN6.

I've been using Your Dream Garage for years. In fact, I was just in there recently. They are the perfect solution for those of us who like to wrench on our cars, but the management of the shop has deteriorated in recent years, the owner is spending most of his time in China and it's just getting harder to put up with the vibe of the place. If I could find a similar place that was close(r) to where I'm at, that would be ideal.
