Anyone know who deals with DMS in Sydney?

DMS doesn't list any distributors in Sydney on their website, but I could have sworn I saw a few Sydney suspension shops list DMS on their products pages.... I just can't find them now :ninja:

Be careful with people who claim to sell DMS but aren't on their website, make sure they know what they're talking about... there's only a handful of people who deal directly with DMS regularly, and that's those distributors on their website.

Let me know what you're after and I'll price it up for you. With the exception of really popular stuff (like Gravel and Tarmac rally suspension for EVO/WRX's) all DMS suspension is made on order, so 5-7 days from order is a more realistic time frame for delivery.

Was just trying to help out an SAU member mate no need to have a dig. 2-3 days is the delivery time not the build time, no we are not listed on the DMS website simply because we are the Aust distributer for ISC coilovers and there for don't plan on selling alot of other coilover brands. In saying that we can happily order in almost any performance part our customers are after.

Thanks guys...

Ryan, I don't think Greg was taking a swipe at you...

He was making a more general comment on retailers who sell DMS shocks without the having the expertise to support what they're selling.

I'll keep hunting around until I can find someone who impresses me with their experience and knowledge, and who doesn't try to flog me some off-the-shelf kit for a quick sale.

Cheers!

Ryan,

It certainly wasn't having a swipe at you, at least you're in the industry. But because DMS can be resold through retailers who aren't necessarily involved in it, and because it is quite a specialised product, I know of several people that have been burnt quite badly...

As for the time frame, again, certainly not a swipe at you, but just letting people know that DMS is made on order, not off the shelf, so 7-10 working days is what we'll tell most people as a worst case. It's generally less though...

Regards,

Greg

    • From when I was looking at getting the 86 engineered for the turbo, the joint said to put in a few euro 5 or 6 cats, then tune the car on a nice clean E85 tune When I was looking at a turbo for the MX5, it was basically the same thing, a couple of cats and a nice clean tune Although, it will depend on the year of the Jeep IRT emmisions standards required, and what mods are done, especially if it has a newer engine installed that requires a higher Euro
    • Yeah - but it's not actually that easy. There are limits for HC, CO, NOx and particulates. Particulates shouldn't be a concern in any petrol engine unless trying to comply to the very latest Euro standard. But getting a tune right so that all the others stay within limits AT THE SAME TIME is not a trivial exercise. You couldn't possibly get it right by just guessing at the tuner's dyno, unless he had a 4 gas analyser up the pipe, which is not often the case these days. It used to be. Every decent shop that did "tune ups" (as opposed to tuning) would have a 4 gas analsyer. Perhaps there's still quite a few of them around these days. But most "tuners" are only watching O2 and power readings.
    • Slight segway but the most expensive part of the whole thing which I would have thought would only be required for an engine size/type swap, not a VIV test, is emissions testing.  That's when you get into the big bucks.  I can't remember the exact price now but I got quotes for the GT-R based on swapping to RB30 (not that anyone bothers doing it legally anymore...) and it was around $4500 just for that alone.  The guy that does them manipulates the tune on the vehicle to make sure it passes.  The cheaper option is to book into Kangan Batman Tafe (I think that's where it was) and hire their tester.  Allegedly you're not allowed in there with the car though so not in a position to tweak anything to make sure the vehicle passes.  I'm sure in this day and age of ultra tuneable ECU's you could get the tuner to program a special efficiency (clean) tune that emits the lowest amount of particulates possible that would pass the test.  It might only make 50kW's but as long as it passed who cares!
    • I'm sure he has left signs, or, he is looking down, laughing That's my cunning plan for when I leave, lots of half finished projects, with no rhyme or reason of where I was actually up to, just to keep everyone on their toes
    • Does that price include the rack time to straighten the frame and body and replacement of parts and paint, as well as the noise and emmisions testing  The last engineering certificate I had done, albeit about 15 years ago, was around $1000 for a few inspections and the certificate
