Looking for a good Subaru Engine Installer

Post by Brighton Dubber »

Hi I am looking at putting a Subaru in my T25 Holdsworth. My camper has been badly converted from petrol to diesel and has given me nothing but trouble. Being a complete novice I have been throwing money at fixing various issues but I now need to get a new conversion done so I know I can drive with confidence. I am in the Sussex area so can anyone recommend someone who could take this on?

Thanks in advance!

Speak to RJES , he supplies most Subaru dudes and will make a recommendation based on work he's seen.

if It's been converted to diesel then use the diesel bits and convert to petrol GTI, you already have the conversion parts, or talk to 'spannerman' in Guildford he like to do Subaru converts

I used the Haynes Motor Museum service department when I did mine a few years ago and got all the bits from RJES. They were excellent and it has not missed a beat since. RJES support was also first rate. However they are in Somerset so not particularly local.
