Hi all,

Which workshops in the Sydney area would you guys recommend, for servicing and buying parts for your car? The following are workshops I've either heard of or dealt with a little:

Powerplay Imports (Drummoyne)

JustJap (Kirrawee)

Unique Autosports (Seven Hills)

I'm after:

Knowledgeable service and advice

Friendly service

Efficient service and parts delivery

Returns phone calls

Professionalism in working on my car

Reasonable prices charged for parts and service

I know the above things are more or less the same but occasionally one or more of these things are completely absent from one or more of the aforementioned workshops

Any help greatly appreciated

Matt

There's no such thing as a workshop/parts supplier with an impeccable record. Your best bet is to use the search functionality to review the many many other threads that cover the same topic.

Matt, these questions seem to get asked every other week, and almost everyone has differing opinions and their own list of preferred workshops or suppliers to deal with.

The workshops you have already mentioned are all well known and respected, and one of them is a prominent trader on this very forum.

There are a few more great places in my signature which you can add to your list :D

Thanks for the fast reply and the helpful response Blitz

Guess I'm just a bit frustrated with the service from some of the shops I've been to and while I'm not necessarily after a workshop with an impeccable record I just wanted to see what other places people were using and would recommend and you have listed some so thanks, i will check out the other guys you've referred to.

Apologies for asking a newbie question.

Matt

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
