HIRING THE RIGHT MECHANIC THE FIRST TIME

We get it - you spend a lot on your car parts, so spending a lot on a mechanic doesn't sound appealing. But did you know that people spend an average of $500 - $1500 more to correct an issue with a bad mechanic, whether that's finding one that knows JDM parts inside and out, a bad install, or a bad replacement? While this isn't something we see all the time, it is something we see enough to discuss. Asking a ton of questions of a mechanic is within your right before you hire them and will save you the time, headache, and money from doing so.

TARIFF NEWS

PRICING

While governments are inching closer to a deal, we are still seeing some pricing increases take place as the manufacturers run out of stock. The GREAT news is we are also starting to see some prices fall back down to pre-tariff levels! The latest updates:

Enkei (17% average increase)
Sparco (5% average increase)
SPC (30% average increase though they have had no other price increases for a couple of years)
Tein (8-12% average increase on most coilovers HOWEVER other products have decreased back to their normal pricing)
Walbro (4% average increase)

SHIPMENT DELAYS

We are continuing to see delays on shipments coming into port because of these tariffs. Both PLM and HPS have much longer than normal wait times right now and this includes any orders placed well before the tariffs were enacted. We will continue to update you as we know more.

ORDER CANCELLATIONS

Until the tariff negotiations are done and signed off on, we are not accepting order cancellations on pre-orders (which include backorders) as we can’t even cancel these parts with some of our manufacturers anymore.
