Have seen a few old threads (2006) regarding this but thought I'd see if anyone has more recent recommendations?

I am in Bayswater.

Service comes with what you pay for at X-Speed =P

Just make sure you get quotes written down on paper =P

Joe, end thread.
I don't think I've read a single bad experience about him?
I went to Xspeed for electronic stuff and tune and found them fine. Wouldn't go to them for general servicing type stuff, not based on bad experience or anything but its a bit overkill going to such a specialist pace for that.

dont take it to westcoast imports...had major trouble with the work they did.
Cracked my radiator and tried telling me it was already there (regardless of the fact I'd notice a brown liquid stain on my radiator since I regulary cleaned the engine bay.) Also had some major squeaks groans and clunks that were not originally there when I took the car to them.

1)Annoying clutch pedal squeak
2) strange clunks from engine bay when starting engine or under small load (My guess is they rooted the install of the gear they put in)

All they did was replace the crossmember and engine mounts but somehow I ended up with more troubles after I had the work done.
