re: Socal mechanic indy shop?
 

Anyone have a socal indy shop recommendation? Prefer west LA area, but would consider OC area if he is supreme at his job and judgement.

depends on what you need done....

Maintenance as in fluid replacements, brakes, clutch, and general inspection to make sure things are running smooth or not. Following the Porsche recommended maintenance schedule.

these guys are great and "affordable"

if you want a porsche exclusive shop try redline in culver city
http://www.redlineservice.net/

another good alternative is swiss motors in culver city
http://www.swissmotors.com/

i've worked with both superperformence and swiss motors in the past with great results but ymmv

If you're willing to go up the 405 a bit, my reco is Marco and the team at TLG Auto in N Hollywood https://tlgauto.com/

This is who I use... for the race cars as well.

This shop specializes in Porsches. Highly professional and reasonable prices.

Near the 91 and 57 and 55 fwys

For regular service, Callas. Have heard good things about Redline and they are closest to West LA but no direct experience.

For mods or track setup (service if the location is convenient), GMG in OC or 911 Design in Montclair.

For air cooled, NARW or TLG. Klaus and his son at NARW are superb but they have a long backlog.

How is TLG with water cooled models?
My cousin swears by Marco for his 914 and his 356.

Sleepers speed shop is costa Mesa. The guys there are very thorough and careful with the cars. Absolute perfectiists. Shop is also super cool.

Try Euro Spec Motoring

Another vote for Marc at Red Line Service in West LA
