GTEASER Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Hey guys! I'm looking at buying a Forester XT that's in Bellingham (I'm in the SF Bay Area) and I want to have the owner take it to a trusted shop to have do a leakdown/compression check, possibly check the turbo shaft play, and do just an overall basic inspection before I fly up there to buy it. If anyone has any recommendations your input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

12sechatch Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 http://www.nwrallysports.com/ I've heard good things about the owner, Adam, although I have never done business with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asianrage Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 If you go a bit south on I5 Bellingham, there's Smart Service in Mulkiteo. A little south east, via I405, of that is AllWheelDriveAuto. Both of these shops specializes in Subaru. I trust both shops to do good work.

magnusonsubie Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 2nd for NW rally sports. They built a friend of mine GC with a 22b widebody clone and closed deck ej22 in it and he beats on it like no other and it doesn't give up. They are a quality shop up there. 2005 Vader Wagon Material Tests on Ringland Failure Piston I should have held off and purchased a wagon instead of the spec.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
