Drove past Stechnic the other day. I was overwhelmed with the amount of Subarus there. Close to public transport is a bonuse to patrons. Thumbs up from me

You know when you put the car into on and the power lights comes on and you can hear the fuel pump prime? Does that fine for the first start, then if I say run into the shop for a couple of minutes and come back out, turn to on and power light will illuminate but I don't hear the fuel pump, can't start the car, will turn over but yeah, if I give it some gas sometimes it will start on me but then stall.. Very annoying

Brant alarm system still installed? Otherwise could be faulty fuel pump or associated wiring/relay

Yeah alarm system still installed, unsure which it is without having someone take a look, usually waiting 5 minutes fixes it, just really annoying

Default Sik em Rex

For anyone south I highly recommend Sik em Rex in Mandurah . Over the years my '99 has been in many a shop. I had an issue with rear wheel bearing , too it to Automasters as is close to me , for a check as the rear was travelling in a unnatural way over 80ks, AM "checked" it and said its all ok , got wheel alignment done was slightly better, still not the rex I knew. Took it to Tim at Sik em , 5 minutes later problem solved. he also found a boost leak that had been overlooked by other shops, you pay a tad more but worth it for the experience and expertise with the Rex.

Default On site fitting and tuning.

I live in Busselton and am looking for a place that can sell and install an Invidia N1 turbo back exhaust, a new intake and new dump pipe and then tune.
Preferably same day as I won't exactly be able to drive home and then back again at a later date.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'd like to stay away from Ecutek.

Cheers.

Don't like your chances of getting anyone to tune down there unless you have a LINK, in which case I think Leigh can tune.

Thumbs up for ASG and Tokyo Motorsports - I have had positive experiences with both.

Dynoseek is worth a mention here too - It has a good list of performance workshops searchable by location and make/model. Most of the recommended servicing/mechanicals on the first page are listed there.
