OK, I know this is gonna be a common question, but I searched in importing forum, and couldn't find anything of much use, and I figured that most of you guys would have used one workshop or another, so I need some recommendations on these workshops:

JAPANESE SPORTS AUTO

34 091 929 270 PRESTON VIC AUSTRALIA

SEI MOTORS

90 096 964 546 DANDENONG VIC AUSTRALIA

SKYLINE AUSTRALIA PTY LTD

30 097 662 443 DANDENONG VIC AUSTRALIA

PERFORMANCE VEHICLES PTY LTD 2

3 103 540 905 BAYSWATER VIC AUSTRALIA

IMPORTED VEHICLE COMPLIANCE CENTRE

72 109 401 470 CRAIGIEBURN VIC AUSTRALIA

By name alone, skyline australia seems pretty good, anyone dealt with them? Or any of the others?

I'm kind of after people who have personally dealt with these companies. I'm dealing with a stock GTS-4, so there shouldn't be any worries about removing mods or anything.

Anyway, any help would be appreciated.

R32 or R33 or R34?

R32.

this is the car:

and some hi res pics:

I'm more looking for someone to say: I went to XXX and while their price was $, the guy was pretty cool, and I was happy with the result.

If someone sucked, they can PM me.

Also, is SAU sure about the legal ramifications? As far as I am aware, forum boads count as public conversation, which, unlike, say a radio broadcast, is not covered by libel, provided people posting are not representatives of any competing companies.

But, hey, I'm not too concerned about all that, because I understand that the people running this site would rather err on the side of caution, though I would like some feedback, (positive or negative) on the above workshops. If it's negative, please PM me.

Its defamation in a lot of cases. So yes, there certainly are ramifications as SAU is therefore allowing it

Anyway, its not a discussion point, its the rules.

No worries at all.

But it also says that positive feedback is OK, and that negative feedback is tolerated in PM's, which is all I ask for.

So, back to the point, if you've had a car complied by these guys, let me know here if it was good (might be able to help others too) and PM me if it was dodgy.

The list again:

JAPANESE SPORTS AUTO 34 091 929 270 PRESTON VIC AUSTRALIA

SKYLINE AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 30 097 662 443 DANDENONG VIC AUSTRALIA

JAPANESE PERFORMANCE VEHICLES PTY LTD 23 103 540 905 BAYSWATER VIC AUSTRALIA

Thanks to those already helping me, I'll call around monday with quotes, and choose then, at the moment, it's really between Skylines Australia and JPV.

have a search in the vic section. I'm sure that at one stage a few months ago there was talk of a good compliancing workshop, but im not sure which one that was....

I had a look there, but I couldn't find any info that was relevant, they were all R33 compliancers, or under the old system.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Just checking, when we are talking about high temp fluid, are we all referring to DOT 5.1? I haven't had any issues with changing it every 2-3 years.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah that is still true AFAIK.....good brake fluid should be changed annually because it absorbs water faster which is more often than most mechanics would do it. There are cheap tools that check water% in brake fluid if you all scientific about it. I for sure would (do) run good brake fluid in anything that even casually saw the track like Murray said; avoiding the risk of "exciting" fade is worth it

      Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.

      Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.

      The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good?
