What’s the average price people pay at a performance shop for:

A 5000km service using high end oil?

Gear box, diff, brakes ect? How often?

Price for a decent set of pads?

Not after “Mates rates” price’s, need to know for a tax related thing.

Hey bro,

at 5,000k's i usually do the engine oil, oil filter and run some injector cleaner....usually check the brakes...

Repco....if ur running turbo brakes....r33,r34.... $80 for front.....$80 for rear...best price on the coast... but i would go on www.justjap.com and get them there...bendix has always pulled up well. wink wink...speaks in code to also hide from ato...lol

As far as gear box, diff etc.... diff will cost you $70 will premium oil.......gearbox around the same.... engine oil $90......

Cheers...

I'm sure that many places will provide you with a quote if you ring up and ask.

Chapmans = probably more pricey than elsewhere.

It's not relevant who really, as I just needed some an idea of "realistic" amount for my own workings.

Welcome to my world of dodgy invoice's.

For the service from a workshop ive paid around $180 for decent oil/filter/labour, everything else only as often as you need to...

Tax sux but ive had a decent return this year >_<

Yes etax is the computer program that the ato put out. You can get an estimate of the tax refund at any stage, so it is easy to go back and "correct" anything that needs correcting. It is only final when you submit it to the ato.

etax rules substantially

last year when i had managed funds and stuff, i was able to dl all their info from the respective fund managers, straight into etax ( and then rejigged the numbers when i wa done)

etax is good i like the fact that you can go back and make changes if your not happy with your return :(

as for the servicing from a performance shop hmm the last time i went to one was about 4 years ago and it was around 150 for a service.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
