My BRZ falls outside the valve spring recall, but should I pay to have it done anyway at a Toyota dealership just to be safe?

Just do it yourself. Nobody should ever pay to have somebody else work on their car for any reason.

I would take it to a GM dealer, because you know, it says right in the guy's name that he knows what he's doing. How could you be born Mr. Goodwrench and not know how to do a valve spring job....

Will do. Would you recommend two different shops, so I can get a second pair of eyes on it?

You can do it with a tree branch, block and tackle and a craftsman tool kit. Cam phasing is for pussies

On the second one I'd use lowering springs to close that monster truck valve gap.

Having trouble with 3rd to 2nd upshifts. Sounds kind of like valve float. Any ideas?
