What shops do you guys trust the most in hawaii to work on your subies? I heard good things about streamline performance, any other recommendations?

 

I think shops will be depending in work that needs to be done on car. If yall have go to shops for certain things, that would be good info as well. I like my garage, internet, n google for bolt ons n thingsbthat dont require big guns. I have yet to go to a shop here in haeaii to do something

 

what do you need done?

 

From minor bolt ons, maintenance to fully built motors, import dynamics (formerly sonic motorsports)

 

there was an s2k that went there recently and they messed up the engine pretty bad....valves are burnt.....car ended up going to import dynamics to fix the mess....

 

My garage.

 

ive heard some bad things that happened at import dynamics tho, just saying. but every shop does have their mess up days. im pretty sure streamline does good work. but not always the same guy wrenching on every car know what i mean. you never know whos gna be touching your car.

so in actuality it is really hard to say what shop is bad. some bad shops have one good mechanic and the rest all doodoo. and vice versa. through my experience at work, youll screw up one day regardless.

the ONE MECHANIC that has the best feedback, id prefer whatever shop that guys at.

 

What do u need done?

 

Sorry guys, I should of been more specific haha, its a 2013 STI, and my coilovers just arrived and I dont have time to do it on my own, but just your basics Like Suspension, Bushings for shifter, stuff like this.

 

ahh didnt think my first post, posted haha.

 

What bad things happen at import dynamics? If its a big project, it can sometimes take a while....but other than that, what are you speaking of?

 

Dude im a Marine and i find time to work on my car lol..... doing it yourself is the fastest, and like 80% of the time the most reliable....

 

not things like burnt valves. but some bad tunes.
and just well a lot of people really encourage others to stay away. ive never gotten work done from them personally so i cant say him or they are bad, but its the feedback from others. they just say 'streamline is better.'

 

not only that but most importantly free labor charges lol.


downfall, suspension should be a walk in the park. as long as you have basic knowledge of wrenching. and tools of course.

 

Tools needed....
-Beer
-Beer
-PB blaster (but you got a 2013 so i wouldn't worry about that)
- wrenches
-TQ wrench
-Sockets
- paint pen
- and foor jack and stands.

Side comment: I come from Vegas.... and the roads there are as smooth as satins *** after a waxing..... as for Hawaii, its the complete opposite. I don't know how you guys drive here with coils.
