Hypotheticaly

Like to ask all - What outlet do you think in Canberra would be the best at selling Quality Brand name Seats locally. Who do you trust?, Where do you go? and who provides the service you would recommend and go back to.

Will cater to Skylines with ADR approved rails etc, as well as all other vehicles.

Looking for a shop already in the market but looking to expand their range/business.

It's hard to say who would be good at representing a brand properly-Super Cheap?Wouldn't want the name assosciation.Auto Barn?National big-hitter that'll undercut anyone to deal with the manufacturer.Then you've got the smaller,local fish.Evo?Seems most people,including me,are at least wary of them.Fast and Furious Imports really only seem keen on the car side-fair enough,too.J Racing?Jerry could be worth asking-whilst I have no problems with J Racing,I'm not sure what everyone else thinks...Skyline Performance?Dunno anything about the owner/s,really.Then there's always this damned new-age www. thingo!Could save you dollars on driving around keeping people happy,maybe?In short:more research to do?I got my new Brides from J Racing,but I still had to do MUCH arsing about to wind up getting the bases from Japan,via some outside assistance.The final 5% of good service is missing in Australia:maybe it's the laid back Aussie thing,I don't know...

You mentioned AutoBarn Jayce, i just thought i'd mention i was reading the most recent HPI, and noticed AutoBarn have whored more Jap brands for their catalogue.

Now reads something like: Blitz, Trust/Grex/Greddy/Gracer, Veilside, etc. I think they're trying to become Super Autobacs ;)

LOL:yeah,it worries me that such reputable brands can be put into such ignorant hands(generally...).Then again,at least the volume and accessability is there for all of us to get at!

Think I'll give Jerry a call @ J Racing - stay Tuned.

He's just a bit out of the way up the alley but He's treated me good. With his association with Autosalon, his contacts and clients and he is doing something for the Local scene. Worth looking at further. Thanks Again

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.

      Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
