OK, just had my neighbour tell me who this is (but of course I promptly forgot his name :) ) but apparently he runs some pretty insane mazda rotaries at the drags and is just starting out. Going by the guys own cars I would say he may be worth trying out, and unlike a lot of so called Perth based "performance" mechanics he will work on all sorts of stuff from NA 4cyl all the way up to S/C BB V8's and everything in between.

hmmmm sounds good :P so who's willing to be a test mule and go try ?

The place u are talking about is Lee Sanders. he used to work for rotamotion but now has his own workshop in Kelmscott. Top bloke to deal with, knows his shit and does top quality work.

the company is called Sanders Racing.

cheers

he worked for cypher then moved to ovaboost and now is doing his own thing. dont think hes worked for rotamotion?

but your right lee is a top bloke to deal with and his fabrication is a work of art

  • 2 weeks later...

Thats a really good price......

Does that include the timing belt being replaced as well as the idler and tensioner pulleys?!?

Cause they can add about 300 bucks to the bill if they need to be replaced....and then there is the water pump...

I have been quoted around $1000 if you want everything to be done...

On that note, does anyone recommend a good workshop to go a full 100 k service on a '92 R32 GTS-T??

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
