Which Mechanic do u TRUST
Gday guys im fairly new to this forum....just got my 2004 wrx with basic bolt on mods and aftermarket ecu ofcourse...i came over from sydney not too long ago and couldnt let the car go so took it with me.
Basically im looking for a mechanic that can be trusted and not expected the usual shit from most. SO my question is which mechanic do u take your car to and are you happy with what they charge u? |

Race Torque mate never had anything but great service from them. You have to be prepared to wait though as they are always busy.
Although I have never used them All Star Garage is another one.

I dont trust anyone in a position to take money from me. Get second opinions and educate yourself about the mechanics of your car. The more you know the less likely you'll get ripped.
Having said that, I have only heard good things so far about ASG and Tenagah.

Trust me, this is invaluable infomation right there. Learning the even most basic things of your car will help you in the long run 10 fold. I will normally attempt to do sumthing (nothing abnormally hard) before i start ringing people asking for prices. This is why the forums exsist basically! Things like BoV's, Boost gauges, Exhaust, FMIC, replacing turbos etc are all fairly easy (and fustrating at times) things to do. Who do i trust? Havnt been to a Garage as of yet, so it will be intresting to check them out. Im looking down the line of ASG atm. Head nothing but good about them atm from other people. |

I think Al from here goes to RevLimit MS in Carlisle? They seem alright. Thinking of getting them to do some stuff on mine. They only do Sooby stuff i'm pretty sure.

Because you have an aftermarket ECU, namely Autronics you are not really restricted, most shops can look after you. RMS, Tenagah or ASG and good old X Speed are all very competent for Autronics tuning.
I use Tony Flood/Flood Motorsports for my mechanical works/ Engine/Gearbox/Diffs etc. Why? Tony's prices regularly beat the rest and his quality is second to none. and Exleys Tyre and Brake in Willeton for...you guessed it
