New To Vic, Need Good Mechanic Around Hoppers Crossing


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

New to vic, moved up from Tassie wanting to know of some good mechanics/workshops around Werribee, Hoppers Crossing, Point Cook areas. Have a rather large boost leak and would like to get it fixed asap. All help appreciated

DO NOT GO ACES mechanical repairs !!!

Other than that there's point cook mechanics at the end of old geelong road before bridge.. There's always heaps of cars there and I also go there with peace of mind

Lol yeah 2 weeks after getting it tuned got a f**ked piston. Motor had only 90xxxkms on it with 180 compression across all cylinders before i took it to him. Took the car to another tuner to sus it out and he told me the car was pinging off its ass.

Yeap, heard good things about his tuning aswell but the car was idling really rough the day it got tuned so took it back to him to fix the idling issues, he played with the power fc abit and got it idling good then one week later started idling rough again but had misfire this time. Got another tuner to look at it and he told me one pistons gone from the stupid amount of timing that was set. fuel pump was in good working order.

    • Clutch hydraulics are also all good, looks like a brand new slave cylinder and everything bled up well. No idea what the actual clutch is, and I don't intend to pull the box off on the floor to find out, so unless we have trouble on the dyno or at shakedown that will remain a mystery for the new owner
    • Front brakes are G4 8 pot calipers over 330mm discs with braided lines. Everything looks good, pretty sure these are off my old 350. Pads are brand new and judging from gold colour are Winmax which is what I also run on my race car, Neil and I both sourced brake stuff from Matty at Racebrakes Sydney who really knows his stuff Everything has bled up nicely with all new Motul RBF600 fluid, there were 2 loose hard line connections and the calipers were new on the car so I ended up doing it 3 times but it is perfect now
    • So, starting with the rear brakes. They look like standard R33 GTST, and will need new pads shortly (less than 5mm material, probably only 1 day left). The slotted discs (probably DBA) are near new at 18.01mm and the lines are braided
    • I clean my wheels every time I wash the car, I also clean the barrels, the only product I use on the wheels is truck wash and a pressure washer, followed by (inset your chosen name brand) wash and wax, time per wheel is probably 2 minutes total, cleaning the barrels is easy with one of these microfibre thingies on a stick from Sabco, they're also great for getting in between the front guards and body, and tight spots in the engine bay  
    • An updated post here. Sounds to me like there's definitely a bit of sketchiness here.  Old mate with 10 rusting Torana's in the front yard might be more who they're focussed on. (For right or wrong).
