Just wanted to share my experience at BR Racing in Los Gatos. Since I bought my 1st P-car (05 C2S) in September I've been looking for a local shop that I could take my car for both service and mods. Also, I had 4 things that needed to be done to the car, install H&R springs that I bought from AWE, 4 wheel alignment, replace coolant reservoir, and try to clear the stupid System Fault that came on when I had my car detailed. So on Friday (Nov 1st) since my son was out of school, I decided to take the day off and have some QT with both my son and the P car. I called Bruce the day before and told him I was going to swing by in the morning. As soon as I pulled up to the shop I started drooling at the eye candy. They had GT3s, C2Ss, Turbos, M3s, Cup Cars etc. I must have taken a dozen pictures before I even walked in the shop. I then met the shop owners Bruce and Rob who were really nice and gave me a tour of the shop even before we started talking business. After I wiped my drool, I told Bruce what I needed to get done, and he didn't even question me about bringing my own springs in, other shops I called just didn't want my business unless I bought the springs from them. He also price matched suncoast for the reservoir. For labor, I have to admit, prior to getting the work done, I did my homework of what labor should cost me from other shops I've called, and Bruce either matched it or was cheaper. Anyway, to cut my story short, these guys "hooked me up" and took care of my car, even cleared the stupid fault for free. My 7 year old son and I was at the shop for about 10 hrs. but it felt like 2 hrs (The ipad also helped). On top of this I got him a hair cut down the street which made the wife happy and he told her when we got home that he had a blast hanging out with Dad and the race cars. If any of you guys live in Bay Area, check out BR RACING...awesome guys, awesome cars and best of all, awesome price.

 

BTW, here are some before and after pics. Not great pics since I took it with the iphone.

 

thanks for sharing. i have been to the shop once and also found their shop to be top rated. i didn't get any work done there since i wrench myself. however, my friends go there.

i hope shops like this keep it up. we are lucky to have so many porsche, italian exotic indy shops in the bay area.

 

Anyone know of a similar style shop in Los Angeles? Not just for servicing, but for mods as well?

As always, thank you all in advance!

Steve
