Carmania24 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Hi again, Before you ask, yes I looked on Yelp and asked some groups on Facebook. But I am looking for a Subaru Shop in Orange County, CA to replace my motor. Maybe someone here can recommend a place I missed? Straight drop in motor, all accessories are on it. I have reached out to a few last week but I have not gotten a response as of yet. The closer to OC the better! Thanks a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxkita Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 What happened to <3 Dawn's shop? Can't they do installs? Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmania24 Posted September 23, 2020 Author Share Posted September 23, 2020 What happened to <3 Dawn's shop? Can't they do installs? I do not mind them replacing it, but they are about 120 miles from me and tow on average is $3 a mile (some even $7 a mile). It ends up being cheaper if I have him drop the motor off (after being built) to a shop closer to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apexi Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Outfront Motorsports? https://www.outfrontmotorsports.com/ 8071 Commonwealth Ave Buena Park, CA 90621 I have no experience with them, but I remember msprank mentioning them in another post a few years back Um. I spoke to Jeremy at Outfront Motorsports, the definitive knowledge source for all things Subaru engine related regardless of continent of origin. He says "why would you want to do that? Tell him it wont work". Then he says, "if he pays you to do it have him sign that your not responsible before proceeding". Then he proceeds to laugh and go on about all the sand cars he has built (and that I have worked on) with locked cams and unplugged solenoids. Just trying to save you the grief. All you have to do is leave the exhaust avcs solenoids unplugged. https://legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5817964&postcount=16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxkita Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 outfront is a good shop especially if you want a high hp build. They have done 1000hp time attack builds. Not going to be backwoods pricing tho. I'd have them do the whole thing. You'll get a kickass car Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for that! More than half those places do not even exist anymore, but found some places that still are and close to me. Going to give them a call.
