Never seen a workshop open after 2 or 3 pm on a saturday mate...

You will find they all follow similar hours... They not woolworths...

Might want to conduct a search for workshops and start making a few calls tho. Why do you need a workshop open late???

ya, let me clarify i ment open after 5 on weekdays and maybe open for couple hours on weekends. i work and only have time after 5 or on the weekends.

always want to fix up a FMIC,dump pipe and run on stock high boost setting......save up the cash....just dont get the time to put it.

any help people....sure someone must be open on weekends, so i can leave it with them.....in Vic lot of places are open on sat, that i know.....

not too many places i'm aware of

you can try mercury motorsport?

Most people just take a day of leave during the week to put the car into the shop.

Try GMR at Fairfield, their details are here.

John opens late, usually 10-11am and is often there until 9-10pm most weeknights. He's done most of the mechanical work on my car.

The reason i asked why is why not just drop your car off in the morning and pick it up after work in the afternoon...?

Pick a shop close to your work... Simple...

ya, i think this is the logical thing to do, will give a call to mercury and G.M.R for a quote on the stuff..

thanks people....QLD move has being good so far....weather or the weather..... :( ,

So what exactly are you after?

Do you have all the piping to mount the FMIC or do you need them made up?

If made up, Mild Steel/Stainless Steel?

Is the Dump pipe a simple, unbolt the existing an fit in the new one?

Not a new Exhaust system from Turbo back?

Is it just installing a 2 stage boost controller? Hi/Low boost..

Hi Guys,

New to Brisbane, Any goood workshop that are around ?, which are open after 5 or weekends.

somebody has to be open ?

My friend runs his own workshop called Motive Performance at Coopers Plains (close to sunnybank). Monday to Saturday he is normally open well after 5pm. I get my GTR modded and service there all the time (recently he fitted a Greddy oil cooler for me). Very nice guy, and the price is very reasonable.

Call him on 3277 7279 OR 0403 598 527

hmmm...bugger all i want is a smooth daily driver that has bit more low down urge and flat tourqe curve.....

not after KW as such....

but can only afford FMIC , dump pipe, and apexi avc-r and dyno.....

if someone can suggest a better way to have flat tourqe curve by all means......but no money for power FC and turbo highflow range mods

car now has cat back, POD...and new clutch....has being with me for some time and well sort of got used to the power a bit...never being tuned...ECU reset only from time to time.....just for the fun of it...

Thanks for all the help though, SAU forums rocks !!!

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
