Cool Thwaites & Godspeed.............massive thumbs up

just want to say a huge thanks to 2 of the most professional companies i have dealt with.

mark @ thwaites stripped my brembos off my car and sent them to ian who rebuilt them and powder-coated them in bright porsche red.thwaites were then sent my brakes to be re-installed,mark found that one of my rear stainless brake lines had rubbed through so he replaced it and for good measure he did the other side aswell and filled the system up with new fluid.

the calipers look fantastic and turn around was quick,i spoke with ian who explained everything that was done and replaced.

i also ordered a set of new mudflaps from scoobyworld who sent them to thwaites for me so mark fitted them along with a new k&n induction kit. he also went through the map with a fine tooth comb to make sure all the fuelling was spot on, my idle is almost spot on now. i also rang mark to see if he would measure my exhaust center section length as i want to go 3" all the way, nothing was too much trouble for him or michael.

in todays busy world its nice to deal with 2 companies who take the time to explain everything and wont sell you **** you dont need.if anybody needs any work doing on their subaru and are worried who to use i can 100% highly recommend thwaites in warwick, and if anybody needs any brake work done then ian @ godspeed is your man.

big up yourselves boys

I’ve spoken to Ian at Godspeed a couple of times and he was always very helpful even though at I hadn’t at that point purchased anything from them.

Off topic slightly but do you have spacers on your wheels or are they wide from the ET? They look spot on for width and I’m looking to space my BBS Spec C alloys on my Blob but I’m undecided on 10,15 or 20mm spacers...
