A little off subject but im looking for a reputable shop in Reno that i can order some parts from. I have a friend up north that knows nothing about cars and wants to do some work to his. He drives a 2005 Subaru STI, i know this is for 240's but i thought id ask if anyone up north may know of a good shop i can order some parts ie. exhaust, boost controller, cobb access port, fuel pump, guages, pulleys etc. If anyone on here knows of any it would be much appreciated. My name is Matt and you can either shoot me a message via nv240 or on my cell 702-420-0775. Thanks again for any help.
PS. if theres a shop in vegas that can either drop ship the parts from the manufactuers or get a really good deal on shipping from vegas to reno ill look into that rout as well.

internet shops can dropship to reno, and then you can go over his purchases with him and ensure that he doesnt get sucked in to buying a ton of worthless crap. probably the best method (and cheaper too).
i guess unless the parts he wants/needs are well beyond his ability to install.
ive met a couple subie dudes that are really into spending alot of money and making alot of power on their dd's. i'll ask them next time i see them.
they all run some (pretty gay looking) sticker "unrivaled performance" or something. maybe thats a subie shop?
i mean it sounds super homo but idk maybe its alright.

Im gonna be flying up to reno to install it for him so the installation isnt the problem, I now live in Phoenix and ive talked to a couple of shops down here and they all sound great when you talk to them and then you ask them to price out 9 parts for them and email it back to you and its like your asking them for the keys to there car. Needless to say i havnt got any email back. If anyone knows of a good shop anywhere that i can talk to in reno, vegas, cali hell id even talk to one in nebraska as long as i can get the parts to reno in a resonable time. Ive been talking with people and different shops for a couple months now and havent got anywhere. Anyone I need some help. Thanks

You could try infinite velocity motorsports. I've been there a couple times and they are really nice too. There is also summit racing and they price match online stores as well.
Both these places have websites just google them with reno,nv at the end and they should come up.

Ive done a little business with Jay and he is a good guy but hes more into the mustangs over there but ill still give him a try cause i forget about him. Thanks for the joggin the memory. Is there any other shops in reno that are like NEAC was back in the day but better technicians? Ones that kinda specialize in Imports?
