garage/shop in NE area open on weekends? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

rainmonkey · 02-15-2013, 06:03 AM

Does anyone know of a garage/shop that can install stuff for you (like exhaust, intake, crank, etc...) that's open on the weekends?

I wanted to use Kaizen but scheduling is a huge pain since they're not open on weekends and only do 9-5 on weekdays...

If you don't mind driving to NH, try Synaptic 3. I think they do weekends by appointment.

Could be their winter schedule?

Sometimes shops do weekend jobs by appointment only. Have you talked to Kaizen? They're top notch guys and I'm sure they can help you out.

Check out Greasy's Garage in Worcester. They generally do Saturday hours from 8am to noon. http://greasysgarage.com/

Not sure how far from Hanover, MA you are but Conway Autoworks is more than capable of handling those jobs and they're usually there on weekends assuming there's no racing that weekend, which in winter there isn't! Kenny is the owner.

Bumping this because I'm curious too. Want to install a catback within the next month or so, but I work a 9-5 Monday-Friday. Called Kaizen and they're closed on weekends until May-June. Greasy's Garage's site says they're closed Sat/Sun, and Conway Autoworks' site doesn't load for me.

Any other decent shops in NE around RI? Or self service shops? Or people like Sony that have lifts in their garage that wouldn't mind loaning them out for an hour or two on a weekend? :P

On this topic..where have you guys been taking your cars for alignments? I was going to take mine to the dealer but feel like I would get a better deal elsewhere. Although I'm weary after townfair messed up my civic alignment.

I don't mind a couple people coming over and installing an exhaust or two at my place...but I'm not a mechanics shop and I don't know how much my neighbors would enjoy that. Also I'm leaving on 3/17 and wont be back in the state until 4/2.
