Hi there guys and gals,

If you're in need of tyres for your beloved beast please give Charlie a call @ Bob Jane in Belco, he is a close friend of mine and is now the new manager there.

Just tell him that you're from the SkylinesAustralia forums and that I(Brad) sent you.

Cheers,

Brad

As long as they don't scratch my wheels this time.....or take 4 times longer than they quoted......

Hopefully these problems resolved under the new mgmt.

Charlie took over the role of manager the week before last, so I'm sure he'll be pulling his staff into line pretty quickly.....

Is there any kind of discount or "mates rates" involved with this recomendation or is it purely an advertisment?  

I ask because I need new 19 inch rubber and I'm looking for a good price.

Hey there Stevie,

Definately not purely advertisment :-)

PM me to get my mob number when you're ready to go in and I'll give him a buzz and let him know you're coming....

I spoke to him today and he'll said that he'll do his best to look after us.

Being the new manager is hard for him because he's already starting off with a bad rep which he's trying to fix, so I told him that we'd try to support him as best we could..

Hey Brad, do you know if they stock semi-slicks? Alternately anyone selling some second hand?

Hey there Camma,

If you can get size, preffered brand and other relevant details in regards to what you want I can give him a call or alternatively you can call him on 62532642(ask for Charlie), just tell him the I told you to call. If he doesn't have them, he'll definately try and source them for you.

Or you can try Northwest Tyres in Fyshwick for second handies.

Cheers,

Brad

Excellent. Size would be 205 to 225's in 16". Preferred brand not too concerned but would prefer something in Bridgestone RE55's, Dunlop DO2G's or even some Falken Azenis.

Thanks.

Hey there Glenn,

I've just spoken to Charlie and he said that he's got a Falken in stock, and when you get a chance if you can go in and they can fit it up for you to see if you like them.

Otherwise they can probably order in what you're after.

He didn't have a definate price(for the Falkens) but he said it'll probably be a bit over $200

When you go in make sure that you ask for Charlie and tell him that I sent you.

Cheers,

Brad

    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
    • Something coarse-ish. 180 is good.
    • I was surprised to see all the quick Jack models at the same prices on there. But yeah, grabbing one at 20% off would be great.
