Subaru specialist shop/mechanic

Hi!

Just wondering, do we have among us and the vendors, a specialist for Subaru vehicles?

I saw in other thread, the name Mike was mentioned and that he knows Subaru very well with reasonable rate. Any hint who this Mike might be?

Thanks!

I’m actually curious about suspension setups for the 02 Forester I have. I was going to post a thread asking which aftermarket suspension setup I can go with for a reasonable price just above stock price if possible. If its to much out of range, I’ll just go with stock. I’d just like a stiffer suspension setup. All 4 need to be done anyways.

So if anyone knows, I’d like aftermarket suspension for my 02 Subaru Forester. Stiffer for sure, and if possible… maybe an inch lower.

Mike McGinnis @ Innovative Tuning. He’s a vendor on here.

He’s the only guy that’s touched my STi’s in their special places.

^Thanks! I wonder if it’s possible to have a one-on-one with him to identify the possible suspension issue on my car.

Does Mike work one-on-one like Don used to be? That would be super.

Subaru’s just sound like an awful time.

Mike @ Innovative is well-known in the Subaru community for doing top-notch work.

Throw this up on BuffaloScooby, a bunch of members there have Foresters with some mods.

With all due respect to GT owners, the GT model sounds a lot like one. It’s definitely not for the faint of heart.

So far, my 2.5i NA has not been too obnoxious to maintain.

It’s more fun to drive, but, it needs more TLC compared to the Hondas for sure.

Go to innovatives shop.

Thank you, not sure why I forgot about that site.

Coming from the guy that hates his car, lol.

Who said I hate my car? This is probably one of my favorite cars(for daily purposes that is) that I’ve owned. Just because I tossed it up for sale for shits and giggles doesn’t mean I hate it. COMING from the guy who wants to trade his STI for a Golf R, reevaluate yourself before you open your mouth next time.

Also, thumbs up to Mike at Innovative, that’s your best bet.

I’ve officially been internet tough guy’ed by Gennaro.

(PS- Asking your opinion about what I should do vehicle wise, was because I value(d) your opinion. Next time, I’ll reevaluate myself before I open my mouth, or send a text)

:gay3:

Just text me instead next time way better return on investment :slight_smile:

Thanks, guys, for the pointer to Mike @ Innovative and for the little Internets fun reading. :wiggle:

Yep… issues logging on Buffaloscooby, says I don’t have an account apparently. I remember signing up. I don’t remember being banned or IP banned. I click forgot PW, no email address I have is recognized. Then when I click register, that’s been deactivated by admin. Thoughts?

And I was thinking maybe a set of KYB’s

I’m just here to say mike at innovative

I’ll PM one of the mods for you and see what’s going on.

Thank you. I sent a message but never got a reply from anyone.

Hey guys thanks for recommending us! Yes we do specialize in Subaru’s, feel free to give me a shout regarding products and services. Look forward to working with you!
