OK! so today i decided to go around and try to get some quotes on a headgasket job for the supra...i hit up the new primer place "Street Scene Auto" and i drop in there lovely shop and ask the guy at the desk if they did repairs. He kindly says yes and asks what he can help with...i told him a HG job on a 89 Toyota Supra Turbo and ask for a quote....

he went back to talk to the head machanic and as im standing at the front desk...which is sepereated from the garage by about 15ft and a 1" door i clearly hear a NO! the front desk guy comes out and says that they wont do it...and kindly asked me to leave...lovely people eh?? i didnt know so many people were scared of 7m motors...


Be happy they did your car a favor. I would have left faster than he could have said no!:biglaugh: :naughty:

Are you sure he didnt' accidentally think you asked for a price on a blow job as opposed to a blown head job? Just wondering................:naughty:

We have stopped doing 7m mhg jobs without a full rebuild. Too much time, too much liability, too much headache, not enough money. The way they treated you was bad, but their reasoning I can totally understand.
$1k for a complete mhg job? That shop is screwing themselves on that job, or screwing you on the quality of work. $1k labor/machine work only would be closer to ok.
