Howdy, this was a while ago but incase you check back here, where did you end up taking it in adelaide and how did it go? I'm in adelaide looking for somewhere to go for an N/A R33 service and some brake pads/gearbox work.. but all I have at the moment is a few places I know to avoid, nowhere recommended.
Seems either you go to a regular garage who is cheap but has no idea about skylines and cocks it up, or you go to a specialist garage who charges like you've got bottomless pockets and doesn't necessarily do the job any better unless you happen to know them.
There is a genuine nissan garage near my place but they quoted nearly $500 just to replace the front & rear brake pads.
With genuine nissan pads no doubt, i'm more keen on something aftermarket thats decent and reliable and costs alot less.
Any suggestions? must be some SA ppl here with some idea's..
Cheers
