There are a few of us in the area, though I haven't met anyone.

What sort of mods do you have in mind?

Honestly, you don't need "experts on g37 with modding and stuff" to install an intake and exhaust. Any good auto repair shop or exhaust/muffler shop should be able to install an aftermaket exhaust for you. Now if you want someone who can fabricate a custom exhaust setup, then you may need a shop with some more experience and expertise.

Similarly, any decent auto repair shop should be able to install an intake for you. I’ve done both these mods on cars I’ve owned (and friend’s cars too), and I certainly don’t consider myself an expert mechanic.

Yeah for exhaust, any muffler shop will do, honestly, but if/when you get more serious with other mods, Project X all the way.
