i am new to newcastle need to find a shop that sells stuff like boltons(air filters,turbo timers,body kits). a shop like carmate in sydney sick of driving to sydney to get the parts so if any one has a knows a shop around newcastle let me know plz

thanx

Ummm... lets see... rampage in wickham for air filters "pods" etc there is also wolfies on darby street...

i went to colin over at teamjetspeed for bodykit stuff.. thats over in wickham aslwell....

oh and dont forget the toyshop for second hand parts if u need any...they are in berisfield on the way up to maitland....

you could also try autobarn they are up in matiland too but ive never been there so i duno where that is....

i think theres a few others but i cant think of any right now....

Oh god man.....

Just about any workshop around here can sell, or get you bolt ons...

If they don't have em, it'd only take a day or two.

Most things can be gotten from Autobarn though. It's in Greenhills Shopping centre at... well.... Greenhills.

Follow the Pac. Highway out of Newcastle, towards Maitland/Raymond Terrace....

At Hexam it'll split into New England, keeping heading towards Maitland.

About 10-15 mins from there you'll go under an overpass and then down a hill with a few sets of traffic lights. At the top of the hill turn left and follow that on a little.

It's right next door to the Caltex Servo.

Easy.....

Bodykits however are harder to come by up here. Jetspeed are the only one I know of, although I'm sure there is others somewhere.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
