Mate that sux is all I can say to that. I can only recommend one thing seeing as you are south of the river take it to S technic what they don't know about subies ain't worth knowing. They are at 63 Bickley st Cannington.

Can rebuild an engine in 20 hours!

20 hours is rubbish...the job shouldn't take more than a couple of hours....who is this "mechanic"....obviously not a Subaru specialist...maybe name him so others can avoid. As above, take it to S-Technic or Maximum Motorsport...both are SOR.

S technic or MMS tell the other bloke to piss off

Agree with the above/10. Both are great to deal with.
