would you take your maxima to a honda dealership?
my girlfriend works at a honda dealership and we get discount rates for work on our cars. i was wondering what your opinions were about having a non-nissan mechanic work on your cars. is the accord/maxima similar enough there should be no real concerns, or are the cars so vastly different that having the honda boys work on my car is a definite no-no?
im thinking about having them put in my maxspeed springs for me. would you trust a honda dealership to be able to do this competently?

Would completely depend on the individual ability of the particular Homda mechanic that would be assigned to work on your car. If he is fresh outa ASE school, he/she might not be to experienced. If he/she has been around for awhile and hasn't had their head stuck up someone's bunghole for the last few years, they could probably do the work(it's not rocket science)

I beg to differ.... They simply wouldn't have the parts for your car. Even for a simple oil change I doubt a Civic oil filter would fit on a Maxima. Furthermore, I really doubt they would want to take the time to put on aftermarket items on a non-Honda car. Most shops are busy with warranty work or what not. Now its a different story if you know the mechanic personally and he is not too busy for a little work for under the table cash.

Only if you know the mechanic personally. Will the dealer guarantee his work or is he just using the dealer as the "facility"? If not go to an experienced mechanic that guarantees his work!

Go to a Chevy dealership... they do about 100 warranty repairs a day!
If the work is warranted, there's no reason to be hesitant.

Instead of going to a dealership, try to find a good local (and independent) performance shop that specializes in things like this. There are a few of these places around me and the best way to find them is word of mouth on forums like this.
