Hey boys and girls i was on this forum a couple years ago but i ended up buying a 2005 wrx which was recently taken from me by an *sshole driving a 4wd with a bullbar running a red light at 80kms into my side.

Anyway the insurance came through n after payin off a huge chunk of debt i've recently picked up a mint yellow r34 GT-T 5spd, (loving the rwd).

Im not the biggest fan of the guys i bought the car from so i'm looking for a mechanics that'll be able to look after and service her properly, i live in st kilda but im willing to travel within reason,

so anywhere in the eastern suburbs would be great.

I'd like to hear from you guys on how much you are paying per service, how often, who you trust with your cars etc.

All help appreciated people, my names James n i'm glad to finally be a member that actually owns a skyline, thanks.

hey mate. welcome back...i guess lol

congrats on the buy. as very service i take my 34Gtt to RE customs

just got mine service a month ago by them and $180 got me plugs, oil, oil filter, tranny oil and diff oil change plus a quick check ton tune to make sure all is running well. have always gone to them and never had any trouples with any of my skylines.

general serivce you would be look at between $100-$120. best to call and ask.

but ye RE is aweosme.

The mechanic I go to is the best i've every gone to.

Edge Automotive in Bayswater. His name is Phil.

One morning my oil pressure switch in my old car broke and I needed it to drive to the airport that night. It was a Sunday and his day off but I rang him to see what he could do. He ended up coming into work and fixing my car for $50 and I was running a bit late picking it up and he said he had gotten bored and did a wheel balance, was going to do an alignment but I got there before he did :P

I've recommended him a to a few people and they haven't been disappointed.

He is also doing the pre-purchase inspection of my skyline tomorrow, hope it goes well!

+1 For RE Customs.

I went there for 100,000 Service, in and out in no time, and surprisingly rather than do everything and charge me $1k+, they only replaced what needed replacing and said that the pump, belt etc still had about 40,000k in them, so come back then! (saving me about $600).

Only complaint I had was that the girl on the desk was a bit of an artwork - Looked nice, but was of little practical value.
