West Werks Recommendation?

So I'm looking for a place to install the Exedy twin HD on my IX MR (along with fork stop, SS Line and Fluids). I would prefer to go down to ER but I work 6 days a week and live in seattle so I don't have the time to drive down there.

I know one person Recommended WW for their clutch, but have any others had any experience with them? Just want to be sure my baby is in good hands

Search, lots of posts on West Werks. I've had routine stuff done there since 2007. They're not Evo tuners, they have worked with Robispec for suspension stuff, I don't know if they've done any Evo trannies, clutches, etc. Call them up and ask!

They've done a bunch in the past. They used to run a $400 flat rate special on clutches and a lot of the older owners here (At the time) had taken them up. Haven't heard of much issues from those guys so .

Maybe someday we will get an ER satellite campus near Seattle. Sure does seem like a market exists for it. Would probably even get people coming down from Vancouver B.C. to take advantage of the weak US dollar.

That's VW pricing that they list on their website. I thought that sounded too good to be true.

thats why instead of seattle they need to open around marysville area, its super cheap and a great location for canadians also not to mention marysville has the north ends only E85 station and i talked to the owner, E85 is there to stay

hmmm my mom is actually in the market for land. i should ask for a piece of it and propose to ER as a second location north of Washington. Then, slap on an awd dyno and call it a day.

Their used to be the "EDR" crew here which as I understand it was noted as "English Racing North" at one point in time. I'd love to have ER a good bit closer, but by the same token a lot of what makes these shops good is the people that are there. If ER North opened up and I was wrenching their brand would deteriorate real fast .
