I could do your rebuild but I don't like taking shortcuts. Everything gets done properly or not at all. Some people disagree but that's how I like to do things. If you don't have any luck finding someone, PM me and I'll sort out a quote for you.

DJ Sylvia (spelling?) Mechanical.  Daniel is a champ.  And wont rip you off (or try) like other can and do.

Yep, will second that - has better mechanical knowledge of Skylines than some of the "experts" often recommended on this site. Very good pricing, wish I found him earlier!

Hey Alan. This is extremely difficult for me to type here but I'll do it anyway...

I will strongly recommend Evolution Automotive (07) 3841 4982 to you. My engine is currently being built there and so far I am extremely pleased.

I have friends who have had work done there aswell and all reports are great!

Phew... that actually wasn't all that hard... funny that...

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
