my old integra this happend. I used a saw to cut threw the bolts and then just replaced them along with the lcas

OK here’s an update.

In addition to major rear end work on my 325i, Wayne’s helped me or people I know with the following:

- clutch job / full suspension / brakes install on '98 Prelude (Cousin’s car)
- timing belt / rear drums / front brakes on '01 Odyssey (wife’s killer street ride)

All work was performed in a timely manner at a very reasonable rate. Cars were dropped off on a Saturday morning and were done by the next day.

We were always kept informed about what else was found while car was apart (in Lude’s case, clutch m/c was leaky and had to be done so Wayne ordered it up and put it in there with time to spare). My cousin Brian was very happy with the work and pricing. The clutch has been great since the install over 2 months ago…

Our Ody just turned 117k, so overdue for TB and brakes. Again, job was completed before schedule and Wayne was flexible in pickup/drop off so that really helped us out as I could just leave the car with him for the weekend and it was done when we got back last night. Cost was extremely reasonable considering what I would be charged to have this done by Honda.

Van ran smooth on the way home and brakes felt a lot better according to the wife. I’ll update again once I drive it (and do a couple of 100-0 stops on Western Ave). J/k.

Contact Wayne and ask him about stuff, he’s helpful and straight up no BS. :thumb

How about swaping a radiator support, or atleast the top part in a wrx?

wrecked my 02 wrx… going with a 04 front end. Have all the parts just need someone willing to tackle the support for me.

I’d like a new clutch put in my car if you’re bored. :lol

What’s the going rate if I show up at your garage with the clutch kit/slave cylinder and a cooler full of beer ready to work?

Sorry man, but I don’t allow other people to work in my garage. I would be happy to get that clutch done for you though bro. Sorry about the delayed response, I was on vacation & out of the country. I will pm you a price.
