Clicking noise. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I was driving home and i stoped next to a car at a light, i heard a clicking noise coming on the drivers side so i thought it was the other car.
I got home and checked it and it's coming from me. I'm kinda sure it's gonna be a valve, so my main question is, does anyone know a good shop around SoCal that specializes in Nissans?
I have stock engine by the way. I checked two out, but i kinda get a bad impression from them.

Is it like a rattling noise or a consistent tick? If it is more of a rattle then it is most likely your timing chain. If it is a consistent tick then it might be a valve. If you want you can bring it by my shop anytime during the day and I will check it out for you for no charge. I also do work on the side so I might be able to repair it, depending on how big of a job it is, for you for much less that any decent shop would charge. PM me if you wanna stop by sometime.
