The GT-R is sold, something i really didnt want to have to do but because everyone wants a new airport link and bus tunnel to the city and my house is in the way I thought id better get my finances in order!

Hey guys. Good to see. Had fun at your dyno day even tho the car was down on power. Still need to get it retuned and checked out. The car has been in storage after a recent break in untill i can get a decent alarm and everything else sorted. May be talking to you soon about a few nice goodys.

Hey quick question what relation does East Coast Customs have with West Coast Customs in America. Is it pure coincidence the names are so similar or was East Coast Customs named because it sounds like an already highly successful company?

bahahaha :D

anyways, even though im from SA ive heard good things about these blokes so get behind them.

ok so I'll ask one more time. (nicely) Where are these beat all or die prices you crow about. Have a look at the trader section and you'll see there are plenty prepared to put it out there.

I have purchased an awful lot of componentry for my car and If i had to ring everybody looking for the "best price" I would go broke in phone calls.

Put them out there and if they are as good as you claim and you have stock I/we will buy.

welcome to the forums ECC...

Hows it all going? You're at Kedron now? Why the move? I see your workshop burnt down... what's the go there? I never did end up hearing back from you guys after you promised to contact me about the damage you did to my bonnet when the car was in there being looked at for a pre-purchase inspection (for someone else)...

not that it matters now anyway, as that car's gone, but i hope your attitudes have changed since then, as you seemed like a nice bunch of guys, willing to help out... until something went wrong and then you didn't want to know me

wasnt out workshop that burnt down at aspley - -was the tyre shop next door... luckily we moved out of there a few months prior so didnt affect us.

im not going to revisit the issue with ur bonnet champ - i still stand by 100% that we did not cause the damage and u were standing next to us every second that car was being worked on.. like u sed, for no charge, we even went out of our way to help u fix a few other minor issues whilst the car was there in an attempt to help u make the sale. u saw a copy of the report i gave to the customer who paid us to do the pre-purchase inspection... it had nothing to do with us that the guy didnt buy the car....

i hope however this issue is all in the past but i still stand by what happened with the whole scenario. we have never had damage to any customers cars in 3 years and i dare to find one customer of ours who's nose is out of joint due to something we have done?. u still owe us a carton of beer from the first time we saw u and helped u out when u were broken down at the BP next to our shop free of charge :D *jokes*

but funny how people forget that someone has gone out of their way to help them for free (twice) as soon as another misconceived idea pops into their mind

you seem also to have forgotten that i bought you guys a bottle of spirits... i think it was vodka? (that you asked for, in lieu of the carton of beer) when i bought the car in for the pre-purchase inspection.

I still stand 100% by the fact that you did cause the damage, but it looks like we'll have to agree to disagree.

The issues are indeed in the past, the car was sold and i've moved on to different cars since then, and like i said, you guys were happy to help out (and did so twice, which i did thank you for) and i don't have any problems with either you guys personally, or your workshop, or your workmanship.

As for your last comment, i didn't forget... but you obviously forgot that i 'repaid' you for your time and effort

we will agree to disagree champ :D

i did forget about the bottle of vodka -- or perhaps did my partner drink it without letting me know... lol

thank u for the kind comments dude

dan -- yday u were a pleasure to deal with mate... let me know when your ready to get those few issues we found sorted out and we will get her in and back to the way she shuld be :D

Hey ECC sorry to get of track but is this the place where Allcar at Kedron in boothby street is/was.

Is Allcar Automotive still there??

It has been a long time since I was at Kedron.

I live on the southside now. Allcar did alot of work on my turbo laser which I still have LOL

But now the R34 GTT has top spot and rightly so. ;)

Are you guys open on weekends?

Cheers Craig.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
