@RZNT4R yeah so they can sell parts at markup! And they probably overcharge you on a brake job too! Those shops don't get my business!

But even my single-owner shop guy was trying to get me to use parts from his supplier (he's a WRX guy) and he often seems confused about what parts are compatible for a BRZ (which for the most part is nothing!). So for my own sake I need to do my own parts shopping or my guy might do something silly like when he suggested we install a TOB sleeve designed for a WRX.
