Today at AutoHQ:

Since opening the new website, I've been getting many questions about what kinds of work we do. So here is what we did yesterday.

Replaced damaged hub assembly on the right rear, Hyundai

60K major service and corrected wrongly installed TMIC on a WRX

Minor service on a customer's EVO VIII

Repaired HKS Super Sequential BOV and began Defi gauge pod (Oil pressure, Fuel pressure, and boost gauge) installation on an 07 STI.

Here are some pictures.

For today, install clutch and flywheel on a 2002 Corolla, then finish installation of the Defi gauges.

Later,

Brandon

Cool pictures, though that front mount seems extremely small.

I think that's the greddy? It is a bit smaller than other fmics, I guess the gaping wide bumper just exacerbates that look

Installed Swift Sport Springs Spec R lowering springs on an 06 STI. Customer already took it up highway 9 much to his enjoyment.

Swapped in a Vf34 Turbo, STI Pink injectors, and Denso Fuel pump on an 02 WRX.

Found Sam still removing all the wiring from a customer's crashed STI.

In other news, Kevin stayed late to change his oil.

We also ordered some great parts for customers today, more to come on those in future installments of Today at AutoHQ.

Good night.

Brandon
