Where to get Skyline Serviced

[Bullet32]

Anyway...........

I think we all got a bit carried away for a while there.

I assume that the point of this thread is just to make suggestions on "Where to get your Skyline serviced" so here are my suggestions (take them or leave them):

1. Extreme Street Performance

2. Trojan Motorsport

3. Techworkz Automotive

These are the shops that have looked after me many times in the past and in my opinion are the only workshops worth taking your pride and joy to for tuning, servicing, modifications in or around Canberra.

Done

Hey guys,

Looking to get a nistune ECU for my Stagea. Nistune because I'm budget conscious.. but I havent been able to find much info on who in Canberra has experience tuning these things. I walked into DTS today and they had no idea what I was talking about.

I've searched SAU, but was looking for some local (ACT) knowledge and/or opinion.

I know autotech does Nistune but I can't comment on their work

Thanks for that. The reason I highlighted techworkz was because they're close to my work and just convenient for me. I'd love to get my car to ESP or Trojan as they are known for working on RB's, but unfortunately unable to get there without it interfering with work.

Ill give them a call and suss it out.

Ok.. so turns out that they don't do any tuning because they don't have a dyno. They're happy to install etc, but organise tuning via ESP. *sigh*

send it to sydney and use it as an excuse for a day trip up there

Why would that be a problem?

Drop your car off at Techworkz for a day or so and then pick it up when it's done... They'll take it to ESP and have it tuned for you, it's a win-win situation

[natett]

why would you pay for a contractor to add a margin to someone you can deal with direct?

[GTRKat]

I hate this thread - there's heaps of comments in here on people's thoughts on workshops. Obviously the bad stuff can't be written.

I think we should lock it like they do in NSW when people ask these same questions. People need to call around and make up their own minds because all workshops come with good and bad stories.

Isn't there some discussion about having it tuned locally vs interstate? The whole air pressure at home and all that?

lol, but dont get me wrong.. love a roadtrip.

Most likely will head over to ESP and get it tuned and all that by them directly. I am after convenience, but at the same time I want to save $$$ anywhere I can.

The whole reason for this is because I was just after convenience.

I hope I didn't come across like I didn't like one shop over the other, I just wanted to see what option best suited me.

does anywhere besides ESP tune emanage ultimates in canberra?

[S T A R 3 3]

Not this thread again! Lol.

I was wondering if there was a tyre shop around that treats cars like 'ours' with care. The reason I ask is because this particular shop in Tuggeranong, where i took my Stagea to, sped up to the hoists and smashed the front lip against the ramp. EVEN after I pointed out that it may happen! Not to mention that he sat in my car and finished the last puff of his ciggerette and threw it on the ground.

I will soon be buying new rims and will require rubber for them, and I would like to bring it to a place where I will have piece of mind knowing the rim and finish won't be damaged and my newly repaired front lip will not cop a beating. heheh!

Please feel free to PM me to avoid the inevitable debate.

$700 is about right for installation of cams, just had some put in at Autotech Hume and it was $680.
