well that sounds super

before we go any further i highly suggest you read the >>SAU guidelines<< and contact the Trader Admin to find out what you need to do to keep your signature advertising your business

i wish you all the best in your endeavors in a very competitive trade but with the premise of opening at weird hours to suit your customer that will appeal to quiet a few i imagine

that's not Ben from Smooth Garage or Simon Michealmore ??

thats wicked...good to hear a garage being open at all sorts of wierd hours to cater for people that work the normal 9-5 hours...goodluck to all involved and hopefully see you guys soon....considering your up north

Any opening discounts? Say... a certain high percentage off the receipt? :P

Yeah we will be giving discount to random people at our meet and greet day.

Yeah Ben and i know how hard it is to get stuff done to your cars when your working long hours. We are also thinking about getting a car trailer so if your cruising around and brake down you can call us and we can come out and bring your car back to our workshop repair it and get it back on the road asap.

now that car trailer idea is a winner works on so many levels and im sure not just import drivers would use a service like that

yes been in the positon of having an unroadworthy car and just getting it to place's for tunes is hard so its also good for those of you with track only cars, and need work done, we can collect and drop the car off to you. Also we are working on all types of cars and not just imports :P

then it should be like $70 round trip i know flat top's to charge about that much

and remember its an inconvenience service

But they aren't a towing company, if they charge you a small fee for towing as long as its going to their workshop, then the cash is made in parts and labour, not dollars per k's.

    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
    • I was just going to say that it's good to see you picking up the pace again. Hope the surgery goes well. More downtime just means more time to come up with new ways of digging a deeper rabbithole  
    • How do they compare in size? I have the Yaris coil packs in mine and they work fine. But they are either bigger or sit differently so the engine cover doesn't fit anymore. Not the end of the world but not great either. Do the R35 ones sit flush?
