this is just to help fellow skyliners out, i have built a good freindship with the guys at quickfit in mitchell, anyone who needs new tyres, let me know as i can get them for pretty much trade prices through these guys, alonf with great service and friendly guys

regards

I am in need of some what they stock?

they arent going to be "dirt" cheap, just at trade prices

they have a set of the new model of falken tyres, rrp is about 330, i ordered them in for me at 250 a tyre for the 265/35/18

they get in "dirt" cheap tyres every week, 16 17 18 in wheels, they are about 90 - 120 a tyre depending on size but they dont go any further than 225 in width

(these are "retread" as in the steel belt is an old one but everything else[ ie the rubber] is brand new)

by the way these tyres grip as f!@K, they are really soft and grip like glue even in the wet from my own experience

no worries, will try to get back to you tomorrow, just been a bit busy with work and uni

The ST115 is now an obsolete tyre and will no longer be available when stocks have been sold. The replacement tyre is the new FK452.

Okay guys,

What's the story? I'm getting PM's from both Kryostaisis and marc2.

If possible can I get 2 x 265/40/17 fitted on the Sat 20th this month? Oh, I'll need a wheel allignment too(not sure if QuickFit can do it, otherwise I'll head out an see Chris at Inline)

marc2 actually owns a tyre shop out in Belconnen and has never led anyone astray so I would tend to take his word over that coming from Quickfit (sorry Kryostaisis this isnt a dig against you (its great that youre offering a service to sau), ive just been f**ked over by quickfit in the past... and if a forum owner actually owns a business then my "loyalty" would lie with buying from and supporting him as he has more incentive to look after forum members/users).

I bought 4 brand new tyres only a couple of weeks ago and got a wheel allignment from Marc the one thing that was really good is he took the time to get me the best price he could, have a chat, look over the car and offer some very useful advice. if this was ebay i would give him an A+++++ :( lol

Amaru your 100% right, ive been screwed over with quickfit before.. but that was the belconnen(now fyshwick) one.. those guys are wankers... tried to charge me 45 bucks each tyre to flip them, they made up an excuse saying that my tyres were too thin.. then i went to beaurepairs and they quoted me 30 each... and went to quickfit in mitchell and got it done for 15 a tyre...

if anyone had ever been to the mitchell quickfit, they would know about the freindly service.. but yeah all i want to do is help out fellow skyliners

    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
    • You must be fun at parties.
