if u guys want drive in drive out serive then take it to wilko's and u'll get what u want... at a price

now if u want off the shelf springs what does it matter who u buy them off, and yes we are cheaper than wilkos ;) (i work with jake at REPCO btw) fine example $200odd for a whiteline swaybar for a 31 at wilkos, i'm doing them for 84, std off the shelf kings i can do for 120~

now obviously if u want customs it requires some research, and no we cant give u specs suited to ur needs, but i'm sure that if ur going to the trouble of gettin customs (and u dont have the misfourtune of having the only aus made skyline ;)) u'd b going coilovers, but for anyone that does want them 200~ and PM jake with specs cause i'm almost never on here

now i realise where u guys r coming from, most ppl at repco dont no shit about anything performance, but u'd b surprised at some of the stuff we can get, and how much we can get it for; so dont b so superficial and listen 2 ppl when there trying to help u out :O

Jaker, calling "potential customers" knobs is not really fantastic service. Some people here know what i do for work. So trying to define custom to me is a waste of your breath. As for your discounting of prices etc, while it is good for the average person who can pick up a bargain, it does not do any good to the industry as a whole. (not that that matters to most ;) ) And it comes with no service before or after to buy from repco. I am still waiting on some parts from repco that were left out of a full kit. When i ring, all i get told is it is being sorted out. 3 weeks to sort a problem? i think not so i returned the item. At least with a suspension shop like Wilkinsons if there is a problem, it is solved there and then as quickly as possible in the workshop with parts they stock on the shelf. For those who know me, will understand that i am not saying wilkinsons are the best!! ha ha I know skylines just as well as you. I own 1, i race one very competitivly at various venues. For me to sell my service i dont need to discount. My customers come to me because of the service and advise, not the price of the product.

Just my reply Jaker

p.s. Jaker, i am not trying to start a running debate/argument with you. Just putting in my 2c about your comments.

ok i dont agree with the whole knob thing, even if ur not a potential customer, but it can get abit frustrating when ppl shoot down ur atempt to help them (not that thats an excuse)

if ppl come to u prepared to pay top $ then u obviously no what ur on about, and i'm not disputing that; but u have to realise that not everyone has the $$$'s or the desire to have there car handle like a race car, and thats where a store like REPCO comes in, off the shelf stuff like king springs that give a good value for money, especially on a daily. if u think that discounting prices is detrimental to the industry i would have to disagree, as i have explained they are 2 completely different markets that were catering for, one has little effect on the other IMHO

granted ppl have had bad experiences with REPCO in the past, but that usually more to do with the f**kwit behind the counter than anything else, jake and i have put our hands up to help u guys out to try and avoid this; but if u wanna turn it down its no skin off my nose

    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk  
    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.
