BrettVisionSLR Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Hello, I'm looking at a head gasket and associated rebuild work. I'm in Santa Cruz and am looking for a shop in the area, including the South San Francisco Bay Area that knows these cars well. Does anyone have any suggestions on shops to go to (or avoid)? Thanks! -Brett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris GTO TT Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 I'd recommend LIC motorsports and stay away from EQ. My personal choice would be M45 Automotive in Auburn, but it's a couple hours from the the bay area. 2003 Baja 5MT 2016 Outback 2.5i Premium w/Eyesight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhitter Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 We have had at least one member have his engine rebuilt by RBMS in Hayword. I got a quote from LIC and while they were awesome they were (at the time) 2-3k more than Infamous Performance down in SoCal. so, I ended up shipping my car.

jes. Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Rick’s Performance in Pleasanton. He did the head gasket on our 1998 in 2010, ~90K miles ago. I've known Rick for decades & his shop is almost an hour from me, but I think it's worth the trip...
