John Mitchell Racing - Has Anyone Used Them?

[DaBigGinger]

Has anyone here used John Mitchell Racing for work on their G40? Any comments on the place? Thanks

What sort of work are you looking to have done?  Never heard the name...

Nothing particularly special - just a cam belt change and changing the supercharger timing belt. I know someone who's more than happy to do the cam belt, but they normally send the 'chargers off to Jabbasport for any work. I could do the supercharger timing belt myself, I know, but it's a massive pain in the bum getting it back in due to the way the pipework connects to the intercooler and usually involves a fair amount of me getting annoyed at it, so if I could get a one-stop shop to do both, that would be awesome...

Ah, just been doing a bit of searching online. There's quite a bit of talk about them on Dubforce and the feedback looks pretty good. Happy days

Charger timing belt with the charger off is a 2minute job.  Timing belt only a couple of hour job too.

Getting the charger off and replacing the belt isn't really a problem. I always seem to take forever to get the charger back on and get the charger to intercooler pipe connected. There isn't much space and I don't really seem to have the knack of being able to get it back on... I'm not too comfortable with replacing the cam belt myself, besides, I always seem to turn a job that will normally take a few hours into a day-long marathon of getting annoyed and swearing at anything and everything around me 

Believe me, it's far less hassle for me to get someone else to do it...

A lot of the corrado g60 boys rate JMR, he's bring doing lader services for years apparently.

Nice one, thanks. I can't believe I've only just heard of him!
