Never heard of them mate,but that does'nt make them bad. have you looked at there website or tried asking the question in the main scnet forums, or better still midlands scoobies forums or a google.

Pm Mark Morgan (Yellowscooby) he's good mates with him, apparently the guy does alot of interesting stuff, Marks had a lot of work done on his car, they also have a Dyno Dynamics Rolling Road, at a £100,000 investment they cant be that bad.

Thats the one! yer need the brakes sorting.. I tried to find you on here but forgot your username. I just thought id ask the question see what people say. to be fair all comments back have been very positive. What i cant understand is Xspec want around £500 for 4 discs, pads and braided breakline! that seems well cheap! im not complaining, but just seems cheap but then that might be because im used to Subaru Main Dealer prices! ha

Take it easy..

Nothing wrong with x spec motorsport i have taken 5 cars there for cam belt changes in 2 years and you cannot beat them for price or quality. They have now moved premises now ,and no longer have the rolling road..
Also alot of people don't know that they won the nippon challenge a few years ago. They mainly deal with the motorsport side of things ,but are well versed in engine rebuilds,mods etc. Graham is a top bloke and his son Alex can do scooby cam belt changes in his sleep including auto wrx's which are slightly different . Strongly recommend

This is the text I got off graham after i asked him if i could post his details on here:
As posting anything up ,I would rather leave it at the point we are for now.We are booked up solid for the next 2 months,and prefer to do work for only those we want to look after such as yourself,and those that need to know do so already. We intend to just be doing motorsport work by early next year plus a small band of road customers such as you . Thanks for the offer.

Simon I will bell him tomorrow and ask if i can pass his details on to you but as you can read ,he's a bit busy at the mo
