Bathurst Skyline Owners

[R32 Zilla]

Hi to all Skyline owners in Bathurst.

I am new to town and own an R32 GTR. Just wondering if there is a good workshop in town that you take your cars to?

I dont like the idea of guessing and taking a chance.

Thanks

Tim.

hey buddy, good to have another line in town.

im based in bathurst, but theres not really anywhere to take your car. its V8 town remember.best bet would be to make the journey to the eastern suburbs, sydney. even if there were some place in bx it would be hell expensive, and probably not up to sydney quality.

by the way, im based in bx,but currently in europe.

if you ever see a metallic blue soarer or a jzx80 dark blue/green supra, give them a wave. mates of mine. both TT, feel free to show them the power on the RB26, then need to be shown.

be home in 3 weeks, keep an eye out for gunmetal r33 gtst or a JZX100 chaser. both me.

enjoy the track!

I go out there sometimes - a mate lives there and I go out there to get away from the big smoke and piss it up there hahaha

Last time I was there, there was me and a mate in a GTR and didnt see any other skylines

will keep an eye out next time

Cheers,

Chris

Thats ok, I used to live in the Blue Mountains and took my car to Steves Auto Barn. He does a good job and has 2 Skylines of his own. Its the same shop that built Buster's car.

Its only an hour from here so I will continue to go there.

Also I have seen at least 7 different Skylines getting around town including 2 GTR's and a few GTST's with front mounts ect

And yes the track is awesome. Shame I cant run in the hillclimb this Sunday........have to Work

Thanks

Tim.

Heya 32Zilla,

I live in Bx, when I want an oil change etc, I go down to Adam Cope Mechanical, he's on Kircaldy St, which is Just off the Vale Road. (Turn left when you see the Devro sign, after the Farmer's Arms Pub)

Adam Cope's the better in Town, good for general work, inc turbo swaps, suspension work, oils changing etc.

He's honest, and pretty experienced, and happens to have a 2wd dyno :-)

There is also automate, but I personally prefer Adam (Cleaner, newer workshop)

For skyline specific work, (aka serious troubleshooting/tuning etc - Goto Sydney)

And, i'll be one of the 'lines around with a frontmount ;-) Silver SII '33 - ZebHax

Thanks Zebbie.

That sounds like the sort of shop Iam after.

What about a good smash repair shop?

Thanks

Tim.

Im sure you would have seen my mates VU SS ute and his neighbours green Xsomething Falcon going up and down the mountain late at night

[Zebbie]

:-) see plenty of peeps running about the mount:-)

(including the Ute guy that got done @ 180 on Conrod the other month.. )

For smash repair, Browning's Smash Repair have a good rep, as well as Ray Morcombes (Keppel St and the Vale Road)

IIRC, there's 2 '33 GTR's in town, 1 R34 GTR, 1 34 GTT, about 6 R33 GTST's, 4+ Silvia's, 2 R32 GTST's (1 4 Door) and a good slection of RX's....
