It's great that Garrett's work is done at a dealership but I'm guessing that it's on his off time, hence no warranty support for the labor or backing from the dealership if anything happens. So that COULD end up costing me more in the long run. The cost of gas to Ft. Myers as well as a day wasted is going to cost me more than taking it to Mastro. I have the tools and garage space at my place, but I just would rather do something else with my time than try to remove a tranny with the car on jackstands. I'm sure Garrett does great work, and if he was local to St. Pete, I'd consider it, but I'm going to play it safe on this one....

Although, if I take it to Brothers I can hang out at the Fantasyland strip club across the street while they work (wait, that will probabaly end up costing me more in the long run)

+1 for brothers. They do great work and know what their doing at that. Labor isnt that bad, but im pretty sure its around 85 an hour as well. Your pretty much looking the same everywhere you go.

I was thinking the same thing. Don't personally know much about shops in the tampa area other than XAT and Brotherz. Out of the tow I'd go with Brotherz...I never use dealerships as they normally, from my experience, have the worst service, laziest employees and the most shoddy work at the highest rate...Just from what I've seen happen up here.

Your right, its because im so busy selling parts, i also dont take vacations because i do not have time.

No need to get my hands dirty, im a parts salesman, not an installer. Oh and i have a tuner as well. So your saying that at each sales facility 1 guy should do everything? thats retarded I do quite well with what i do, like me or hate me, it wouldn't change anything. I'm here to sell parts at the best prices and give you the best service, nothing less.

If you'd like help taking your 13 second sti (isnt that what they run stock?) to a faster time, we'd be glad to help

You had some "Local Tech" build your car at a dealership not someone at your shop, do you even have a shop? Your so buisy buying parts you cant mod your car booohhooo this is the king load right here. You bought someone else's used modded car so you can slap that cheese dick perrin kit on there sticker the bitch up and start going out telling everyone what a great car you built. Your bullshits not fooling anyone we have driven concepts down here that does the same thing.

My car runs 13's way to make yourself look like an even bigger jackass than you already do.

oh you mean i bought my best friends car in which i helped out with all the mods and have known since day 1.

Im a car parts sales person, i never said i was a shop nor an installer.

Your reading comprehension skills are a bit weak, I said im busy selling parts. Im not looking to argue. I never said im the best car builder ever.

From start to finish its always been, great parts, great pricing.

Here is a version even you can understand. "when i get sick, i go to see the doctor"
"when i want the best prices on subaru performance parts, I call import image"
i think even you understand that one.
Build my car? its not built, its just bolt on's. i never said it was built. I dont take credit for other people's work.
This car is just an advertisement for what I sell, it has all the parts on it that i sell. get over yourself
