just wondering if anyone's dealt with/bought cars thru autostyle in sydney? talked to dominic on the phone the other day and he seemed pretty reasonable but just wanted some opinions (if there are any) as to their service and the quality of their cars - thinking about buying thru them. any feedback would be cool, thanks guys

He's a premium dealer.

By that I mean you'll see a lot of cars which are cheaper than the ones he has in other peoples private adds and other car lots. But I mean you kinda take your life in your own hands picking out 2nd hand cars, least with Dom's you know its going too work, not f**k up or break down (well as much as you can expect from a performance car!), some dodgy chop job or stolen. Pretty handy for parts, services and support too.

Dunno how much my word is worth :whistling:

Makes any difference I've bought one car off him (I still own), friends have bought another 3 over the last 6years, end of this year I'll probably buy another of him because he's not a crook.

Up to you, if you can find an inspect a 2nd hand car which is the same condition for less money then by all means buy it.

They are crap.. went to look at a 32 ages ago.. he wanted too much for it.. bald tyres, cracked kit, cracked mirrors..

Wasnt impressed.. didnt like there service either.. so glad i didnt buy from them..

Dom always takes time to speak with you which i find good, but what price can you put on that?

When i was buying my R32 i was looking on the net, the papers, EVERYWHERE for weeks, i had a few i was keen on, then when i was ready to buy, 2 of the ones i wouldve bought were now at Autostyle, and marked up accordingly. I ended up buying privatly.

My mates dad bought a 310kw gtp falcon (orange, carbon bonnet, black rims farken beautiful!) from them with no problems, car was spotless condition, went like nothing i have ever experienced, (need a neck brace)...

was a good car at a bit of a premuim price but was worth it,

ended up selling the car back through them after a while of owning it, for a much cheaper price, yeah the falcons for holding their value!

didnt deal with them personally but thats just another story to add to the collection

Oh yeah,

Seen that there, very nice looking car.

They started getting alot more muscle cars in there now as well because the import scence has died down.

we took that car to bathurst last year for the big race, it got looks like you wouldnt imagine, i dont know why my mates dad sold that car, i loved it, he loved it, everyone loved it, maybe petrol consumption and worried about licences :)

88silhouette- the falcon was burnout tested by whoever from autostyle that took my mate and dad for a test drive :) it ripped some mad skidz ;)

id love to have a nice muscle car, dont see too many nice ones around nowadays

ah well sounds like they may be a bit overpriced but i just feel a bit more secure buying through someone with a reputation. i have a knack for buying lemons. thanks for all the feedback tho.

Well Dominic is a Family friend of ours and also Sam, they are really great people, some people say they are expensive but you get what you pay for I say..

If you ever seen his SKYLINE you'd know he is spot on with chosing cars carefully his car is an ANIMAL..

Dominic takes time with you he wants to Know exactly what you are after...

You wont be disappointed dealing with AUTOSTYLE mate....

Let us know the outcome ok.... :-)

    • I’m here solo don’t have any hands to help so haven’t hit it with a timing light 
    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
