Tdr - Thwaites developments
 

Guys, been a member on here for years yet never been in this section . Looking for some pointers, insight, opinions on Tdr. Looking at a car that has had a build by them and was hoping to get some feedback from people that have used them, how was the service, what did they do, if they've built an engine for you to what spec, what power, any issues etc.

I'm aware they built the pro-r car just I wanted to hear some more personal views


Any information will be much appreciated

Steve

steve you will have no problems with tdr or their work mark and ryan really know their stuff and are more than helpful with any questions. ive probably known mark the longest and hes always done all my cars to the highest standard from a simple service to my turbo conversions whos car you buying???

They're top dudes. I've been there a few times and will go again and it's over a hundred mile round trip for me!!

They give sound advice, good service and no BS. :thumb:

Steve
You don't have any problems there at all. They are top blokes I'd trust them 100% with my car. Mark is very helpful and def knows what he is doing. I wouldn't worry about an engine they built at all. I was going to send mine there to sort the engine but then I sold it and you know the rest. ( I think I know the car your looking at and it's very nice you won't go wrong with that:))

Steve as the comments above ! Top guys , no bs , really honest reliable people and more importantly great customer service ! They have done all my work for me with no issues what so ever !! Hope this helps !

Cheers guys I appreciate the information.

Will try and get up to see them i think, be the best way to put the mind at rest just I've been told mark is away on holiday at the minute so didn't think it was worth it till he was back

Let us know when you go up and see him and I'll try and get down there myself ! I'm due to,pop down there when he's back to sort out the fitting of swirl pot !:thumb:

Will do mate, will possibly be a week on Saturday (23rd) if not the following week of the (2nd)

Kev fancy a power run in the saloons replacement. ;)

I'd be up for that although as I'm away with work I'm not getting it until the end of the month and then I will need to do the boring 1000 running in so I'm guessing its a few weeks away yet but when it is I will let you know :)

Nice one mate, be nice to put another face to a user name. Near the time I will drop you guys a message to sort the dates out.

Regards

Silly question may be but who maps for tdr? Or do they do it in house

Mark does the classics himself. He used to use Mr Carr for newage, but he may do them himself now too.

Would be a 2011 sti mate

I wouldn't know on a 2011....sorry. I'm sure someone will know the answer.

mark maps all his own cars and has now for at least 2 years and has had is own dyno for the last 12 months i think

cannot recomend them enough, top lads, know what they are doing :thumb:

I've been using them for years and they never let me down. Mark is a top bloke.

there good i have parted with some money with tdr and found there work is good, not had to go back for any reasons other than a map tweak. they fitted my alcatek and vf34 and many other bits. im about to ask mark to do belt and possibly a stage 2 clutch fitment. mark and ryan are good chaps. even though mark does electronic fags. :luxhello:

Agree with every one so far I wouldn't hesitate to go back again, cam belt due soon and it will be tdr doing it

on a scale of 1-10,,,,,, its 10 everytime for me, really know their stuff and put your mind at rest, they specialise in imprezas but people give mark their ferraris for work,, exceptional vehicle engineer

Mark built my engine for me.. very good price, top service and very quick turnaround.
Top bloke

Well picked the car up from cross Roads and I'm very happy with it. Although it's a long story I'm not 100% on the full spec and build of the car, soon to be confirmed but thought I would pop a quick pic as some of you may know it.

Will update when the spec is confirmed and the garage floor of parts have been fitted

Cheers

Cheers stu, parts arriving on a daily basis now so weather depending it will be a busy weekend ;-) for now it's all exterior mods and then for the inside. This importing parts gets expensive!

If you go on their website it's my motor on the Dyno in the picture :)
