Just moved from Hunterdon County to Long Branch, NJ. Does anyone know of a good local mechanic?

Provost motorsports in bordentown. It's about an hour from you, but worth the trip if you want it fixed right and the first time.

I used to live in Long Branch and there is an independent in Ocean Township - Bodymotion. I can't personally vouch for their capability.

I don't about their work quality, but I've heard they are very expensive...you go in with a $100 problem and walk out with a $500 bill.

I had the timing belt and water pump changed and all fluids replaced in my 95 Cab at Provost Motorsports. I picked it up on 7 June 12.



Labor charges are $112.50 an hour and only Porsche parts are used. Robbie took the time to discuss what was done and answered any question I had. Made sure I understood need to have balance tensioner adjusted after 5K miles.

Thanks for the suggestions. Sounds like Provost is the place to go. Rookie, I need to have the same work done on my cab...would you mind sharing how much your work cost?

The labor for the timing belt and water pump was $843.75, to replace the transmission fluid $191.25, and to do an oil change $56.25.



7 quarts of 15w50 Mobil 1 $63.91, ATF fluid $68.16, ATF pan gasket $28.41, ATF filter $29.91, water pump $250 plus $40 shipping from Germany, thermo switch $39.95, power steering fluid $22.72, brake fluid $16.57, Porsche coolant $36.54, heater valve $31.36, and $850 in parts for the timing belt maintenance.



All that plus the 7% NJ sales tax.

They have done a ton of work for me too. Timing belt, clutch, head gasket, master and slaves, chain and pads, exhaust and it's never needed to go back twice. Max also has fixed my wing. They also provide track support when I'm in Millville.
