is STEBRO still in business

Jvan · #1 09-24-2015, 08:25 PM

I have a Stebro midpipe in my 94 SVX and I need to update the exhaust system.I have tried to locate them on the web but can't seem to find a current web address on Google. Anyone have contact info or used Stebro parts for sale?

They have been around since 1956, I don't know what happened to their business practices in the last while but there are a lot of complaints.
They are located in Nepean, Ontario which is part of Ottawa, not far from me. Here is their contact information:

50 Slack Rd, Nepean, ON K2G 3N3 phone# 613-212-8765

Here's what I found on Google:https://www.google.ca/webhp?sourceid...ebro+ottawa+on

Their websites are for sale but this is the recent contact email for sales: sales@stebro.net or dan@stebro.net

Update: It appears the owner Dan Petschenig passed away October 29, 2013. A former employee is still operating. Sergey Blazhko phone#(613) 400-7589
I found this info on ferrarichat.com.

I think it is best to avoid doing business with Stebro.

From what I read Sergey Blazhko is a real stand-up guy who stands behind his work. Stebro is no longer in existence.

Just called Serge, he definitely sounds like a honest and passionate guy.

He says that he still have all the old Stebro templates for the svx + he can improve it and customize it the way we want (tips, size, etc).

Only downside is that he want to have the car at his shop for extra measurements. That would cause problem for you US fellas. Maybe you could negotiate something over a exact Stebro replica?

Would be great to have a group buy of some sort, he could test fit it onto my car and ship it to you.

I have had the Stebro mid pipe installed on my 94 for over 15 years and never had a problem. The installation was a direct fit and went in smoothly. I have read about a lot of problems w/exotic cars and Stebro but my experience was excellent w/product and customer service but it was 15 years ago. Hope we can do something w/new owner.

Hurts me to read about Stebro going out this way. Back in my 1960's - 70's English car days they made some really sweet stuff. I had a Stebro on my 998 Mini Cooper.

My Pace car has the Stebro system on it, nice sound, good fit, not had any problems out of it

My silver car has a stebro. Love it. No significant problems when installing it some years ago. Also installed converter back on son's car. A few gasket issues on that one. Slightly different than stock, but was able to find proper fitment.

Can we see if a GROUP BUY can be arranged?

fasteract7 · #12 10-04-2015, 10:26 AM

I'd go for a "last single cat back system", particularly if hardware/gaskets included...

I'd be interested
