Guest Aaron Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I have used PTS in Luton before when I was first doing up my GT4, and they stung me really bad, and the job they did was pretty shoddy IMO, the boost gauge came loose, the pipe also fell off, and the 2K I spent to have the HKS full exhust system fitted was way over the top and the quoted price, plus the exhaust started to rattle after about 3 weeks! So I dont wanna take my supra there, anywhere else you can think off, as local garages dont reallt have the expertise needed when dealing with these cars. What i want is a full look over the car, so they can tell me what the next step would be in upgrading it! Aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Defo worth giving Pheonix a ring if you want your P&J treaded like royalty. Top lads with kid gloves, not to mention they actualy know a thing or 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Phoenix here too, very reasonable and won't rip you off, loads of experience on Supras.

Ian C Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Phoenix all the way Give them an old fashioned phone call - they are great, and above all, trustworthy. I trust them with mine for scary jobs I can't do myself - like clutch swap and even getting the getrag fixed after I done gone busted 5th gear's synchros Good prices and it's done when they say it'll be done too -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qaisar Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Have to say Phoenix too, Top blokes. As has been mentioned very friendly guys, with reasonable rates and you can be sure they will take care of your car and not rip you off. Mark has actually stopped me from rushing into things to ensure everything is ok and so as not to waste my money, which to mind shows what an honest and up front kind of guy he is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
