Big Thanks To Dan At Elite Racing Developments

[R33_Rob]

Hi Guys,

Just would like you to share a quick story with you.

A few weeks ago my car was parked outside my work when someone from an adjacent building put the tray of their Holden ute through the A pillar and windscreen of my R33 GTST.

My car was towed to the assessment centre then panel beater to repaired.

Due to the lack of initiative from the panel beater, they could not find a replacement part to use in my car.

Apparently it was only possible to get this item from Japan and it would take up to 6 weeks before they even placed the order.

I was given an estimated 3 month wait before my car would be back on the road.

Filled with rage I called Dan for some help ( who has been the only mechanic that has worked on my car since my ownership.)

Within 15 minutes Dan had sourced and priced the part from 4 different places in Melbourne.

Dan then proceeded to call the panel beater and helped arrange the item to be shipped up to Brisbane.

9 days later my car was back on the road. This is one of the many examples of how Dan continuously exceeded expectations and has gone above and beyond customer service.

Without Dan's help my car would still be sitting at the panel beater waiting for them to order the part.

A huge thanks to ERD, Dan i look forward to seeing you soon.

Its worth the drive. Use the contact form if you have any questions and he'll get back to you within a day or 2.

Ah, i didnt know Glen Fiddich was a scotch.

I was born in bundaberg, so all we have there is rum

He doesn't advertise a street address (it's also his house) but if you pick anywhere in Alexandra Hills it should give you a rough indication of distance.

Good to hear he looked after you Rob

He goes alright.

[The Dan]

Thanks Rob. I just like to make sure people get looked after.

You don't need to get me anytyhing, or if you do, at least sit down and share it with me

Correction Gervase: Scotch is Whiskey. Glenfiddich is not Scotch Caol Ila, Glenmorangie, Talisker and Arberlour are Scotches, Glenfiddich is what you drink once you have the better taste of something else before it.

[Strik3r]

that wasn't confusing at all you will have to give me more of your scotch to make me understand i think

With that sort of taste in mind, I guess a 6 pack of pre-mix jonnie walker cans is out of the question...

I'm not so sure... it's good to see the look on his face when he's offered a pre-mix. (or a bourbon)

+1 for the comments above. very helpful and service above and beyond

[Midnight Madness]

Actually, Glenfiddich is Scotch/Whisky. - Scotch just means it was made & distilled in Scotland.

Scot's also spell Whisky without the 'e' rather than Whiskey like everyone else.

And ERD sounds cool, i might check it out next time I hear nothing but good reviews from everyone.

[chubs]

definately sounds like some good help. just checked out there web site and think i shall be taking my 33 there soon for its service. any idea how much it would be for a service and to give the engine a once over to make sure all is well?

[subzeroR33]

Another vote for Dan at Elite, he has helped me out of the poo before.
