Thwaites Developments Racing (TDR)

Honesty, Integrity, Knowlege, Skill, Compassion. These are just some of the words that can be used to describe TDR.
You will also know that these are words that are not usually associated with mechanics/garages.

This is the team and garage you need if you want skilled Subaru specialist mechanics who can offer you all the best services at very reasonable rates. They can do maintenance, modifications and mapping. Makes my life easier knowing I can drop my car off and it is in safe hands.

Every single time my 2005 JDM Hawk STI needs something, I will bring it to TDR. I know they will give me honest advice and the relevant options for maintenance and modifications e.g. turbo choice, coilovers, bushings, anti roll bars etc....

They have proven time and time again that they are better than other so called specialists. They have told me when I do not need work (other garages will scare you into unnecessary stuff). They have also told me about modifications that are better value, and those where I am wasting money.

Because of their advice and work, my car looks good, runs great on road and track and is totally reliable. All whilst I have only spent what was needed and never been ripped off. I always checknwith other "specialists" and TDR comes up on top every time.

Bin using TDR since I bought my Subaru sti 15 plate 4 years ago, and the service I have received has bin absolutely amazing, from a small service to a full engine build I have had all my work done here by the team, nothing is to much trouble and the lads at TDR are faultless my sti has run brilliant and am booked in this weekend for some more power mods. Trust me when I say this do not look any further for your subaru needs as the lads at TDR are brilliant there is a reason why they are queuing out the door.

Mark, Tony and all the staff are exceptional at what they do. How all specialist garages should be run. Excellent service and they really know their stuff. Won't be using anybody else

My son had a engine rebuild on his Subaru imprezza cant fault what they do. Come highly reccomended

TDR fitted a load of mods to my 2013 STI and managed to extract 345hp at the wheels without changing the turbo or upgrading the internals. I daily drove it for 11 months and 6000 miles before getting it serviced and the local garage charged me £150 and did a full inspection and gave it a massive thumbs up. TDR are excellent at what they do, the service was amazing and their facilities were excellent.

Mark knows everything there is to know about Subaru Imprezas and other Subaru models. I first visiting Mark 10 years ago and revisited today for a cam belt and coolant change. He noted the alternator & power steering pump belts were starting to crack so changed these too. Very thorough service. Highly recommended.

I would just like to thank Tony and Mark for an excellent job completed on my Legacy. It's the first time in over 10yrs I have taken a car to true specialists who are very friendly, diligent, professional and have great knowledge. Not only did they fix the issue I went in for, they found another that I was even unaware of, and fixed that as well. Thank you guys!!! I'll place you on my "go to" list next time a repair is required - and anyone reading this because they have an issue with their Subaru right now - do not hesitate to see these people! You won't be disappointed!!

Was there in relation to a minor boost loss issue on our Subaru WRX. Very good team of technicians, fixed it as expected. Highly recommended!
