Performance shops and wreckers in Victoria / Melbourne

[Zahos]

Browsing though performance magazines, I always see performance shops and wreckers in Sydney and Brisbane / Glod Coast. In Melbourne I cant think of ANY performance shops that cater to our needs, and only 1 wrecker:

- EKW on hampstead rd, West Footscray

If any1 knows of any other places in Vic, I think this would be a good spot to post them.

Carizma seem to be selling a fair bit of performance gear..

also, for tuners.. try the typical VL Turbo Tuners.. they are getting fairly deep into the R3*s now..

JPC, EAS, PET..

I dont think id go near Nizpro or AVO.. just heard a few bad things about them..

Also.. BGT are the stockists for APexi.. so they supply / tune etc.. dunno how good they are ?

[doxximus]

i went past PET once and my mate told me they are very very good

they take ur car for a bit of time though the results are worth it

[PurpleR32]

Two that i would highly recommend is

ICE Performance in Cheltenham 9512-7591 and

RacePaceMotorsport in Bayswater

http://www.racepacemotorsport.com/

combined, these guys can get nearly any part needed/wanted and are experts in Nissans (especially GTR's).

[rs73]

hmm.... where is PET? In Melbourne?

[doxximus]

PET is in good ol' Thomastown in the northern suburbs

Is BGT in East Hawthorn ?

Can anyone recommend a place that can tune my Apexi S-AFC and also supply & fit a front and rear camber kit ?

[blind_elk]

BGT are now in Nunawading.

I had a bad experience with them once, made me want to go out and buy a heap of WRX badges for my 240Z so I could get what I had asked for

Also, once witnessed at least 4 different ppl taking a R33 for a 'test drive' after its dyno tune.

Try Speed Technology in Mitcham (Steve 9873 5400). Steve has worked on Zedzilla (featured a couple of times in Zoom!).
