ix9 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Token posting to go for coilovers rather than just springs I recently replaced my Nismo coilovers with G4 Coilovers - Street spec. VERY happy with the result! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/130462-lowering-a-33/page/2/#findComment-2432099 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R31_pwr Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 if u guys want drive in drive out serive then take it to wilko's and u'll get what u want... at a price now if u want off the shelf springs what does it matter who u buy them off, and yes we are cheaper than wilkos (i work with jake at REPCO btw) fine example $200odd for a whiteline swaybar for a 31 at wilkos, i'm doing them for 84, std off the shelf kings i can do for 120~ now obviously if u want customs it requires some research, and no we cant give u specs suited to ur needs, but i'm sure that if ur going to the trouble of gettin customs (and u dont have the misfourtune of having the only aus made skyline ) u'd b going coilovers, but for anyone that does want them 200~ and PM jake with specs cause i'm almost never on here now i realise where u guys r coming from, most ppl at repco dont no shit about anything performance, but u'd b surprised at some of the stuff we can get, and how much we can get it for; so dont b so superficial and listen 2 ppl when there trying to help u out Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/130462-lowering-a-33/page/2/#findComment-2432963 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R DIRTY 3 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Jaker, calling "potential customers" knobs is not really fantastic service. Some people here know what i do for work. So trying to define custom to me is a waste of your breath. As for your discounting of prices etc, while it is good for the average person who can pick up a bargain, it does not do any good to the industry as a whole. (not that that matters to most ) And it comes with no service before or after to buy from repco. I am still waiting on some parts from repco that were left out of a full kit. When i ring, all i get told is it is being sorted out. 3 weeks to sort a problem? i think not so i returned the item. At least with a suspension shop like Wilkinsons if there is a problem, it is solved there and then as quickly as possible in the workshop with parts they stock on the shelf. For those who know me, will understand that i am not saying wilkinsons are the best!! ha ha I know skylines just as well as you. I own 1, i race one very competitivly at various venues. For me to sell my service i dont need to discount. My customers come to me because of the service and advise, not the price of the product. Just my reply Jaker Regards Brad p.s. Jaker, i am not trying to start a running debate/argument with you. Just putting in my 2c about your comments.

R31_pwr Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 ok i dont agree with the whole knob thing, even if ur not a potential customer, but it can get abit frustrating when ppl shoot down ur atempt to help them (not that thats an excuse) if ppl come to u prepared to pay top $ then u obviously no what ur on about, and i'm not disputing that; but u have to realise that not everyone has the $$$'s or the desire to have there car handle like a race car, and thats where a store like REPCO comes in, off the shelf stuff like king springs that give a good value for money, especially on a daily. if u think that discounting prices is detrimental to the industry i would have to disagree, as i have explained they are 2 completely different markets that were catering for, one has little effect on the other IMHO granted ppl have had bad experiences with REPCO in the past, but that usually more to do with the f**kwit behind the counter than anything else, jake and i have put our hands up to help u guys out to try and avoid this; but if u wanna turn it down its no skin off my nose Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/130462-lowering-a-33/page/2/#findComment-2433906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_the_man Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 If you wish to advertise your work (Repco) here then this constitutes as trading and you will need to pay SAU to advertise as all other registered business traders do.
