Subaru Newbie looking for a good mod shop/mechanic
I recently put a down payment on my first Subaru (a '03 WRX wagon). The car is bone stock, and I'm sure I will want to start modifying it in the near future. Since I live in an apartment and don't really have access to proper tools, I will be looking for a good Subaru mechanic or shop with Subaru modding expertise...any suggestions? I live on the Peninsula, so that area would be preferred if possible.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks for all the info and replies. I'm picking up my car next week, so I'm spending this time doing as much research as possible.
Up until now, my knowledge has all been with Hondas —*Subarus being a different breed entirely, the more information I can get the better.
