  1. ah yeh.. im in warnbro.. only about 30mins from you then. Sounds like a date
  2. btw.. is that your car in the avatar?
  3. I've got a trust cat back system (not stainless tho) and is super quiet. Its too quiet tho, so im getting a new loud one put on the 25th feb. 3" piping 2 mufflers and 5" tip off rear muffler. Not cannon style. can send pics if you want
  4. Sounds good.. btw.. where the hell is barragup
  5. Any1 know of a cheap place I can just get my front bar resprayed black? Im going to be re-fibreglassing it in the next week or 2 including priming and sanding, so I just need a spraypainter or home job with good results to give it a few coats of skyline black Cheers
  6. umm.. gtrken is hyperdrive
  7. i hate your uP aNd DoWn CaPs... its very gay and the whole no sack thing shows your probably 17 no offence
  8. Heres my 2 cents if any1 cares. Firstly ive got my cars worked only at cypher, xspeed, genie and some unnamed tuner and found them in general to be bloody great. Cypher I found to be a bit expensive on most things but good workmanship and knowledge never the less. Xspeed are great, also a bit pricey but never had a problem with them (top notch). Genie for exhausts are fantastic, always willing to help and prices for labour can't be beat (if you just need something welded or flanged etc..) The unnamed one, basically I first went to him because he was cheaper than the rest and I knew a few other guys that had been there. He couldnt even diagnose wrong sized spark plug gaps, I thought it was something terminal wrong with my turbo after he finished with it after a service + plugs. I took it to Xspeed and they told me what it was before even looking at the car. So in that respect.. you get what you pay for. In conclusion.. you get what you pay for.. the only reason Im not getting my stuff done @ xspeed now is that ive only heard good things about hyperdrive (+ hyperdrive sell xforce exhausts) and was more than helpful with my stupid questions on the phone. It may be practically the other side of the world from where I live, but id prefer to do that than trust my car with some jerk mechanic around the corner
  9. yeh .. as said in that post.. i got 2x 265x35x18 and 2x 245x45x18 for $1050 actually. Would reccommend them too, heaps better than the sumitomos and hankooks ive had on the back previously
  10. or... take it back to where you got the service/work done and let them fix it. Thats if it was working fine before you went in. They probably would be able to tell you what it is straight away.. after all it is what they do for a living
  11. Thats basically what my post said... and my post got deleted. I thought australia had freedom of speech, obviously not on public forums
  12. Im not haggling at all. Im getting my stainless xforce system fitted on the 25th over here. Just adding my 2cents. Didnt mean to bag the guy out or anything... just letting him know how much there going for around the place
  13. Can you please email me at [email protected] with the info. Cheers
  14. No offence dude, if its xforce mild steel you can get em on ebay for $650 + $50 delivery. Stainless turbo back xforce exhausts are $950 Dont want to be a bastard tho, but id rethink the price
  15. My car pops and gurgles on most gear changes if i leave a gap in the change. ie if I change gear slowly Not too sure if its just that your experiencing. If it is, im no mechanic but its probably nothing. Possibly gap in your spark plugs are too big? I had that problem and car was running like shit on boost (but you shouldnt be having that problem )
  16. my interpretation of that.. "blah blah blah hoons blah...etc"
  17. VL's spoiler? are you on crack by any chance
  18. Small world eh. What was the guy trying to get for it when you looked at it?
  19. Hey Ken, i was after an exhaust and a service/tune at the same time. Is it cool to call you for this + advice ? Im in the same boat. Live in Warnbro, work in freo. Malaga is basically a state away from me, but if the price and service is right i'll travel, just hard to find the time off work. PS. what happened to SST?
  20. count me in too. PM sent
  21. arent the pits defunct now? I thought you just take it to a registered mechanic, or did that scheme come and go?
  22. It came with the car. Im pretty sure JMS sell copies in sydney, not too sure i think it wasnt all that expensive. I remember seeing it there ages ago
  23. Ive got one which sounds similar, do you mean like mine?
  24. Well.. the time has come. I have to tint my car. I've looked at TKO tinting (www.tkotinting.com) and theres some real nice examples there. The guy who does it (trent) said its around $275-$295 for 20% black or 35%, or a fading black to silver reflective is about $375. question 1 - legalities of it. Whats the chances a cop will pull me up for reflective or 20% tint, if any1 has had experiences.. do tell question 2 - has any1 had there car done by TKO, and is he any good At the moment im thinking reflective like this one. (possibly not as much reflective) http://tkotinting.com/gallery/custom/custom44.jpg
