Shop in Vancouver? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

user4815 · 08-17-2016, 06:23 PM

I just purchased a Scion FRS Series 10 M/T with 60,000 miles on it... It needs the 60K service which includes spark plugs. Any shop recommendations in Vancouver?

Vancouver Toyota wants $800 for the 60,000 mile service... Looking for something a little cheaper. Don't really care about all the "inspection" stuff since the dealer I bought it from did that part of it (allegedly).

Thanks!

DIY plugs are cheap and so are the fluids.

I work at a race shop in Vancouver. We just work on racecars but I could help you out if you don't find anyplace else to do it. I've not done plugs on this car but I'm sure we could figure it out and get it done. Email me because I don't check here often christopher_rgiles@yahoo.com

It's not a street car race shop. We have spec racer fords about 35 of them.

These are what they look like. I'm newish to the frs/brz but have been working on cars for 15+ years. And would be willing to help some guys out when I've got the free time. The shop is near downtown Vancouver near i5 off 14

We rent these cars also. We also work with prodrive racing school and they can get you set up to get your racing license so you can race in real races. We will be at our this weekend if you want to come check it out. It's a scca event so there will be a number of other races going on this weekend also.

I am very aware. I was just surprised of a race shop in Vancouver.

It's nothing fancy and we like to keep it on the DL that we have racecars there.

Nice, I will be shopping for a specific Ford or Miatas next year. Maybe I will stop by one of these days.
