Qualaty Mechanics

[Redback]

Hi Everyone. Just moved to the Melbourne Area.

My Car is in need of a good Service. something i would usually do my self but now have no space.

just after some that knows to use good quality oil, and when they change the filters they dont just pollish up the fuel filter to make it look new. (happened before ). and uses good correctly gapped spark plugs.

ive noticed theres a fair few ultra tunes around the place. are they any good?

cheers

Rick

BTW: I drive a Celsior.

it would be all good if i still had my 33... its just finding someone that will take a quality look at ls400/celsior for a good price. lexus want nearly 800 bucks for a service. :eek:

I thought it was common practice that mechanics show you the parts they removed or replaced?

My mechanic's details are below, they tend to work on a whole range of cars, from imports to locals.

Don't go near the chains/franchises (ie. Ultratune/Kmart Tyre & Auto.)

My cars are looked after by Sabaddin Automotive in Mulgrave. Ph: 9558 4422

i would agree with the chain/franchise stores but thanks to my mate (mechanic) he introduced me to the Midas guy next door to his workshop, who does great work (mates rates help)

Dan @ Midas (brighton). ex-NZ who worked on a lot of skylines/imports for a good number of years before coming over here. NZ is def not sure of jap imports.

Most of his mate referral work is on jap imports, skylines, 180's, etc... He fabricated up my exhaust, made a catback HKS super dragger from an R33 fit my R34. And fitted the rest of the system.

He knows his jap imports, and is very thorough in his work. Speak to Dan, tell him dan with the black R34 referred ya
