What up everyone?! I just moved to the Sacramento area (near Yuba City) and I am trying to find a good place to get my WRX parts from and get my ride worked on. I am from the Phoenix/Tucson area and we have awesome shops that specialize in Subaru tuning like DynoComp and Vivid Racing. Is there anything like that out here? Anywhere with an AWD dyno/tuning capability?

Also, is is there any kinda of Subaru Clubs or Groups that meet up around here?
So far i have only seen like maybe 3 WRX/STI's around here...

I asked the guys at the Subaru Dealer in Sac and they said that there is only 1 or 2 places in the area that either do awd dyno or AP tuning(if you have one that is). Other than that I think Davis is the closest place there is......though I do know a shop in Santa Rosa but that is a bit longer of a drive than Davis.


Also only seen a few STi/WRX out here. One at Exec airport and another round town but they're both black(lucky me). Most Rex's near Tahoe ######. Maybe should check up there fer a shop?

Round Table on Greenback in Folsom at 1900hrs Thursday.
I know it is a little outta your way but that seems to be the only one i can find on all the other forums...
They do it almost every thursday I guess

I see quite a few WRXs parked at American River College, but like beaurheaume said, its Subaru city up in the mountains in Truckee/Tahoe

DBTUNED is a great shop. Paul is the owner and he worked on my STI a few times including tuning it. He has a awd dyno. I have heard nothing but good thing about dbtuned. He is a real straight forward guy. He wont sell you crap. only good stuff that will actually do stuff for your car. check it out.

subaru shop in sac

Hey bro,

If your looking for a good shop in Sacramento i would recommend Subaru Specialists. I have know this guy for 14 years. He has an all wheel dyno and can pretty much do anything you are looking to do on your wrx. His name is joe and you can get his number on www.subaruspecialsts.com I see that you are also looking for a place to meet up at. I am also and i dont know any around. I know some people with wrx's so maybe we can start one that is close in sac. Hit me up if you are interested. My email is [email protected] Late.

[beaurheaume]

^^yeah i wouldnt mind checking them out either

 

[GHOST STI]

I wouldnt mind making the hike up to sac for a subie meet, I used to go to the sacforcefed meets, they had alot of subys. Im down in dixon so i dont go up there as often anymore with the gas the way it is.

 

[hemoglowen]

For all you looking for places to meet, have you all tried the NASIOC.COM threads? There are a bunch of people from up here. Go to the bay area impreza club section and look for sac meets. I'm pretty sure they have them there...

Also, I can finally find somewhere to get my car tuned!!! I'm way up in willows, which is about an hour and twenty minutes north of sac, so we have jack up this way. I didn't realize there were that many shops down there. !Thumbs Up

[AllAnIllusion]

Hey there guys, new WRX owner here in the Sac Valley area (Yuba City/Marysville). Just wondering if/where/when you guys meet around here.

 

[gangster]

Im up in tahoe....dont know of any shops yet...havent looked into it. But there are subies galore up here. Everytime I leave the hill I wonder why I dont see em as much. Duh, we have snow and subies are fun in it

You guys still meetn in sac on thurdays?

 

[UnknownAlly]

DBTuned does AccessPORT tuning right?
I'm getting a V1 real soon and was wondering if it fits launch control on there. I heard it doesn't fit.
I want to get the most out of a TBE and I heard Cobb's map is shit.

 

[newtothegame]

I dont think even the V2 APs support LC for the 02-05 WRXs. Its an 07 and up thing I thought.
