Location? Northside/Southside?

I just got my car back from a place at geebung/virginia and they did a pretty decent job of it considering the damage. As it was an insurance job it was all new parts from Nissan (for a R34 mind you). The only problem was it took over a month for some of the parts to come from Nissan Japan.

One of my staff has had their car with that firm for over 6 months awaiting a repair - when he finally got it back the quality was crap.

Still ongoing with them to get things fixed.

Wouldn't touch them with someone elses barge pole.

I have often used (not just on the GTR) Exclusive Autos in Newstead.

They are the only Ferrari repairer in Brisbane. Also do Lambo's, Audi, Porsche, etc.

Not cheap - but very good.

If someone else is paying - worth a try.

Umm just a small point but...3rd party doesn't cover someone else's car. Not compulsory 3rd party nor 3rd party fire and theft, the only insurance that covers your car or anyone else's CAR you hit is comprehensive insurance.....so i'd be checking out that this guys insurance is in fact covering it.

Nope.

3rd party + fire and theft cover you get from RACQ or Just Cars or whatever covers ANYTHING you hit, but NOT your car. Comprehensive covers whatever you hit PLUS your car.

Sean's Presige in Rocklea, second to non to anyone else. Had alot of my friends cars done there, the work is ALWAY flawless. He gets pretty busy tho, might take a little longer than normal, but well worth the wait

Bayer Smash repairs do immaculate work, will be more expensive than some but if your getting repaired under racq you wont have a problem with them approving the work. They also do all of motorline BMW's work everything is to a very high standard.

goodluck

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
