just got an email from Autoworx stating that Alistair (known as arkon on these forums but has since changed it to something else :worship:) is know the new owner of Autoworx Imports on Wangara, which is known for importing fine examples of skylines and many more imports.

Congratulations Alistair, you have 7 years of big shoes to fill but i know your up to it :)

When I was first looking to get an R33 I went to autoworx with it not being far from home, and although I decided to import a car instead, from just from speaking to him about them he set me right on getting one. Might have to pop in next week to wish him luck

yeh ill be popping in aswell to wish him luck,

my dad was skeptical about buying anything that was an import, he talked to paul for 5 mins before coming to get me to choose 1 of 2 silver series 2's lol

my dad wanted to buy an auto for me but Pauls kind words showed him that a manual would have been better (which i agree with :thumbsup:)

any time i go there paul will answer any question i have about my car even if that meant missing out on his lunch

Bought my SII Sedan at autoworx. Paul was a good guy to deal with, kept the shop open for me after hours to come in, as i flew down from Broome that day. Hope you keep up the good service and rep.

Yeah and start complying 1998 JZX100s, and i might buy my next car from Autoworx :thumbsup:

good luck

Quote Paul:

"Why on Earth would you want to keep that piece of shit civic... I mean really mate..."

Said it to my friend.... All class..

It is official, Alistair's old Ceffy was 100x better than my mate's civic...

oi, cheers for the R34 manual Alistair! Good luck aye! I'll have to pop around to pass my gratitude and best wishes on to Paul...

Edited by Marco-R34GTT

bought a r33 turbo 5spd sedan through Paul in '05, definately one of the best in the business.

All the best to the new owner, and if the car bug gets me again, and I want a 33 GTR, I will be back to see Autoworx.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
