Engine builders Hamburg&North Germany
 
Just toying with the idea of another 2.5STI but it seems Subaru is a dirty word in Hamburg.

Where do people get their engines rebuilt in Hamburg/North Germany?

All depends on what spec your looking for. If its just a normal rebuild nothing fancy like relined blocks or no machine work they are pretty decent but if your looking for an 800bhp engine then I think Rich out sources it to Phil Carter depending on their workload.

Either way rich gets good business from me with no issues. Always welcoming and kept in the loop.

Is Rich a tuning company in Germany??

This looks like someone has scrolled down too far on the East kent Subaru thread and posted on a "related thread" rather than the actual thread seeing as this was originally posted in 2015

I did try to find engine builders in Germany I quickly discovered its not easy to still find guys with much Subaru build knowledge , I did find one Polish guy working in Germany
but he was more expensive. I have moved back to UK in 2018 prior to Brexit regulations but my previous 2 short blocks builds were sourced from UK.
The EJ207 Mahle pistons Manley rods and new Nitrided crank has proved very reliable for me running at 350bhp.

Palette transport from Wilks Engines in Shipley UK including shipping insurance was £120 and £130 (2017- 2018 )
obviously that will have increased by now. But you might want to try them tel 07709790797

If you are stuck for decent Garage to do the assembly or re-fitting and don't mind leaving the car close to Frankfurt ,
I would recommend Micheal Dettmering at Garage 147 at Maintal Hochstadt 63477 Tel +49 6181-4276999
he races a BMW 3 series in the Eifel , but don't let that put you off ;-) he is a top guy and will look after you.
