Both Brady and Ben x Tilbrooks are working at JMS with me now

top guys who both know there stuff and not burnt out like some of us lol

its looking like gtr central down here at the moment so

we might have to focus on gtr's alittle more in the future

were buying up a storm in Japan right now

Hey man can i tell Brady Matthew from the barrosa valley`s been lookin for him since he left tilbrooks for him to do some more work on my gunmetal 32GTR, he done the turbos on my GTR at tilbrooks

yeh brady is a top bloke. went for a spin in the hills with a mate (in his car that brady built quite a bit of) brady was with us, had a bit of an accident and he didnt mind opening up tilbrooks for us at 5am to drop off the car for repairs! And yeh he's at JMS now.

I had Brady have a quick look at my 33 a few weeks ago with my exhaust manifold issue. Very nice bloke, was happy to help. Although i received a very overpriced quote.

Got charged almost half of that quote elsewhere last week for the same job :)

I'll take that as a yes then, that 180 was in there when my engine conversion was getting done and i remember seeing the damage and Brady telling me what had happend :D

its actually a sil80 but yeh, luckly i was in the car behind with another mate hahah...what a night.

cant put a price on quality work these days :)

from memory $800 for heater core was supplying brand new core and fitting, coolant etc

as Brady didn't want end up stuffing you around by fitting a potentially faulty secondhand unit

brady's well know for doing the things the right way first time everytime

it may seem more expensive but from what Ive seen in the long run it works out cheaper for everyone

didn't you already fit a "new" leaking core?

end of the day a workshop is never going to be a cheap as doing something yourself

but if your like me I prefer someone who knows more than I do to be working on my car

so Im happy to pay for that knowledge

as i said the the owner of the shop what is it gold plated i had already been quoted $220 labour for the complete job by an import specialist and that included fluids but not regasing of my air con

he told me a brand new core was $270 so why were they going to charge me another $600 for fitting of it, bah go where you like we all have to do our own research

    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
    • Probably. I take it that they are also mentioned to be for R34 Skyline? For example.... RDA has that part as RDA7957. I have the dimpled and slotted version of that on my car https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285518478694?srsltid=AfmBOopKxMuAFpsxZJdB1cam4D5RAj1f9yJyOttPZLAwXVNCOiwlhrIy This is DBA's top one piece equivalent https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364246686631?srsltid=AfmBOorbb0XHQgqTvZLgQPhg70nqJtGvdojKnugum3O2LFSr2h-obp8D
