I'm needing to replace my clutch soon on my wrx...wondering if any of you subie guys around the central valley have any suggestion on shops that work on Subaru. I'm looking for a place that is affordable but still reliable on doing a good job. Thanks ahead of time!

ive always done my clutch at the shop i work at using a lift. As DB tuned said it only takes a few hours so labor cost should be down I think it flags for 4 hours the most.

If it doesn't have to be a 'shop'. A buddy of mine here in Modesto has a lift and does a lot of side jobs he's really good on prices and does great work. He mostly works on SRT4's but we've had my car on his lift probably 15-20 times, pulled the tran's 3 times and he's worked on a few other nice wrx's too.

If your interested let me know, and ill give him a call to see if he has time (he gets a ton of jobs from the SRT4 community), and how much he'd charge.
