Brake Workshops

[trel]

Hey guys,

As the topic states, best brake places to get pads and machining done. I've called places like Midas and ABS and the minute they hear skyline $$$ in their eyes...

Where should I go to get my brake pads done at a reasonable cost? Who do you recommend?

Thanks,

Evan

I had my back brakes done about a week ago, Saturday morning, no booking required, good price.

I'd recommend them to anyone, plus they seem to like Skylines.

where are you located?

[WYTSKY]

A place thats not bad... is brakes plus is Moorabin.. they stopped my squeaking... but if you need to get rotors.. id advise buying them off a group buy on here and then bringing it to them... they charge body parts for that stuff! but they use pads called qfms... no brake dust- very very minimal! really good

Cheers,

Adam

hows the sponsor thingo going? last time i heard, kaz180 was unable to get in contact with them via email.

Would you want me to drop by there again with anything? I gave them a sau-vic card last time.

I just got chasers to fit my pads when i done the service there.

They machined the rotors and done a brilliant job, there not just good for modding up

[khunjeng]

anywhere should b able to do it at a good price. its friggen easy to do the pads yourself.

the guys at hightek brakes in moorabin are really friendly and seem knowledgeable. they quoted me 195 for front DBA4000 rotors +installation

Race Brakes = verging on the IMO, and other marque owners have commented the same to me as well

+1 for Traction Tyres, been there a few times. Prices are very reasonable for the work.

A good mate of mine is the manager of Midas on Nepean Hwy (gardenvale/brighton) He's done a lot of work on my car and def knows his way around Skylines. He's a kiwi and worked on a lot of jap imports when he was back home.

No bullshit, good work. Mention dan with the black 34 referred ya, oh and his name is Dan too

thanks guys, appreciate all the responses.

race brakes moved from flemington??

did they change hands as well?

[SS8_Gohan]

last time i was there they said they would be going to clayton, but i can't remember if there were going to be 2 premises?

nothing was mentioned about changing hands, although, i could def see the possibility of that happening.
