Russell and his team could not be commended enough for their honest , genuine and professional nature.

Had them inspect a Foz on my behalf as I was purchasing used, interstate. They noticed some transmission leaks that should have been picked up by Subaru Dealer under warranty so wrote up a report and sent the owner back to Subaru and they fixed it for free.

Russell wouldn't take my money as he wasn't certain Subaru would fix the issue and would impact whether or not I'd go ahead with the purchase. When things worked out in my favour I got back to pay again but still said it was all good. What a champ. Obviously loves his job and prides him self for getting his hands dirty with honesty. So hard to find garages like this these days. Wish I lived in QLD to take my new car there for all works needed.

Highly reccomend!!!

Approximate cost: $130

I took my 2001 Bugeye to these guys with no boost. (Collapsed up pipe and internal damage to the turbo). They diagnosed the problem within 10 minutes and fixed the issue first go at a very fair and reasonable price as well as checking out a few more issues I wanted fixed into the future and gave me explanations and quotes on this work. I,ll be bringing it back here for its next service for sure.

Thanks For the great Review and glad to get your Subi running like it should :-)

Honest, Reliable and Trustworthy.
My first experience with Russ and the team at Subi Evolution began after being told my Subi needed thousands of dollars worth of repairs at a dealership. The staff at the dealership were advising me that the repairs were so urgent that l should leave my car there that night and take home a courtesy car and return a week later. Fortunately the staff left me alone for long enough for me to call a friend to ask if the repair costs seemed reasonable. My friend’s advice was to ‘get the hell out of there!’ and go and see the team at Subi Evolution. That was about 7 years ago now. My experience with Russ and the team has always been professional and without pressure. My mechanical knowledge is pretty much non existent however, Russ and the team have never made me feel embarrassed, instead, taking the time to explain to me what needs to be done, prioritising the work and giving me an idea of how long it might be until brake pads etc need to be replaced. The team go above and beyond for their customers and will do a local drop off and pick up or let you relax in the customer lounge while they take care of your Subi. Russ even helped me when purchasing my next second hand Subi which l took home today and look forward to having Subi Evolution take care of for me so I can just enjoy driving her. Last but by far not the least, I must mention their exceptional public relations manager,

After having engine problems after just purchasing an 05 Sti, Russ was immediately helpful and reassuring, he treated me more like a friend and was ALWAYS patient with me, even if I called a lot.

His quote was reasonable and included what was needed to make the car almost like new, fixing the sins of the other mechanics that had come before him.

It is very rare to find such care, dedication and levels of service, and it is a pleasure to recommend the team at Subi Evolution, I'm already excited for the next time the car is with them.

Thank-you guys!

Russell did an excellent job of freshening up my '04 Forester. Steering rack, wheel bearings, rear main seal, window motor/regulator and a dozen other little bits and pieces. After accepting the quote and getting it on the hoist he noticed the clutch was on it's last legs so he called me and asked if I wanted it replaced while he already had the gearbox out - saving me a few hundred bucks in labour. Much appreciated. I'm going back for some new suspension and I know where the Forrie will be going for any work from now on.
I just can't fault Subi Evolution and in particular the customer service that Russell offers.

Russell and Steve go out of their way to help.
I have never had to query an invoice, or bring my vehicle back after a repair. Haven't met a fairer or more capable couple of blokes in this industry.
My vehicles are a Honda Accord, and a Nissan X Trail. Couldn't be happier

Huge thanks to Russ and team for always fixing my car. Saving me haha and never overcharging. Best place to get your car serviced with exceptional customer service

We are a family of WRX owners and we wouldn't take them anywhere else. Russell is always helpful and his diagnostic skills are awesome. I am so glad Subievo is not far away from us because we would go there even if he was across town. Russ is always happy to supply good 2nd hand parts if appropriate and tries to save his customers money. I can't recommend Russ highly enough. I am soooo glad I have someone I trust looking after my cars... Cheers ..

Many years ago I bought my first Subaru.... After being stuffed around by Dealers for a few months, a friend mentioned this small Subaru workshop in Brendale.... Subi Evolution.
After stopping by and talking to Russ and the guys, I was fairly sure I had found a good workshop.
But, after I got my car back, I was 100% positive.
The guys at Subi Evo go above and beyond every time to ensure that I know what is happening with my pride & joy, and they take the time to explain everything, and make a recommendation on how I should proceed (rather than simply doing work that was not requested, and then billing for it, as many other workshops do)

It has been almost 8 years since I first discovered them, and I have "WOMO'd" many of my friends and workmates here also, some of which don't even own Subaru's!

Keep up the excellent work guys.

Russ and the team at Subi evolution are highly experienced and knowledgable in all things Subaru. Russ took the time to explain all options across the price spectrum and it was for this reason I took my GT Forester to Subi evolution to install a new motor. Even though I have to drive from the south side I've been taking my car to them ever since. Highly recommend them!
