Best Tunner, Moddifer, Garage In Australia?

[ARTZ]

i am asking a genuine question lads,

And despite the pun, (sorry ,little inside joke) Rajab is actually a genuine tuner...

However I cannot tell you if he is hiring or not.

Don't you need a working visa or sponsor or some crap?

you usually need a business to sign-off or sponsor the visa application.

...see where this is going?

australia is massive.

there is no best tuner, and often the tuners with the best rep, usually have that cos the guys they are tuning have only used one tuner.

no that's not a riddle.

get a working holiday visa champ just like the other 50000 irish fellas then just dont go home. easy.

also how old are you?

but id be contacting rajab. god of tuning.

or look for someone in cairns. earn more money and its all backpackers up there.

Well lads, thanks for the info, I am 28 and I am thinking of permanently moving over with my wife and child so back packer working holiday is out of question!

Done a little research into it over last wnkd and I qualify for permanent visa, however I need to get my skill assessment done, English test etc, plus I am not Irish but Polish residing in Ireland for last 15 years!

I am excellent in what I do and I take a massive pride in my work and I want to continue doing it for as long as I can so no change in career!

Wife is sort of pushing for Adelaide... Any info on thou thing are there?

Ill be taking my 2 skylines, 180 and my rolling road over with me as well

The visa process takes around 9-10 months and ill have to finalise all my business affairs here as well so it might not happen for next 24months!

But it would be nice to arrive and have job organised to land into or at least some prospect of one!

Adelaide is a small place man.

[niZmO_Man]

Go to Melbourne.

[ARTZ]

Yeah and despite all our stringent modification laws all our tuners are flat out...

I'm sure if you ask around long enough you will find somewhere but keep in mind that most places are 1 tuner shops. So to go to 2 tuners would be quite a jump for them. Of course most shops have other guys as helping hands who like to try their hands at tuning so they'll also be waiting for a spot to open up - you might have to join these guys and let your skills push you to the front of the line.

Then again, If you're any good I'd suggest you open your own business. Just remember that not very many are making much money at the end of the day (unless you want to do some chop-shop work on the side).

Considering you are moving to Australia with a wife and child you best make sure you know what a liveable wage is over here. ie. rent, food prices, insurance, etc. You wouldn't want to be working for long earning less than $60k in Melbourne or Sydney. I mean there is something to be said for doing what you love but a half-decent wage is considered $80k+. Median wage in Melbourne/Sydney is around $75k.

If there is a growing business over here it's in Euro cars mods, reflashes, diesels, DPF filter removal, etc. This is where being from Ireland might help. Modding Jap cars has become more about catering to the hard-core (ie. no money) crowd.

FWIW: Yavuz at Unigroup Engineering is also considered a top-notch tuner. You got nothing to lose emailing him but I'm not saying he's taking anyone on. In saying that you probably won't get a reply. I didn't get a reply when I was looking for someone to tune my car after 2 emails and 2 phone calls.

[Ben C34]

What voltage does your dyno run on? (I can't bring myself to call it a rolling road! No one says that in Australia)

Would be a shame to bring it here for it to not work.
