Hey mate, depending on what type of work u need done. i can think of many btw all of the below are industrial fab shops but all are Beer drinkers u will find

BCA - (Brads a top bloke) can do TIG welding, but no in house machining

Heller Sable - great machinist's can do fab work as well (chris & Bassie are great too although probly not interested in 1 off's)

PT metal works/ PT powder coaters - no personal experiece with the fab side but very very competitive for sand blasting and powder coating

J&L engineering - machine shop only fantastic for 1 off items that need that personal touch (george is the nicest man you will ever meet)

Proserve /stainless solutions - specialise in any thing out of stainless

ACORN - good for any thing out of sheet metal

theres alot more around Malaga but there the 1's have had good experiences with.

regards

Chris

anyone know names of metal fabricators round malaga way???

reason i ask is i work in malaga and its handy for me to get work done around that area

thanks

mate! awesome work! cheers for all that

quick question, would proserve be capable or would they fabricate up a stainless steel split/dump/front/screamer pipe (full length one piece) if i gave them my stainless split/dump/front with plumb back screamer for them to make an exactly copy just make it external screamer????

if not, who else would u think would do that???

thanks again mate

hey they would be more then capable of doing it, actually it would be quite interesting to see how much they would charge to do it (they are not cheap, but do beutiful work). PM me the price out of curiosity if you do head over there. I would imagion since you already have 1 that u want copied to copy it in Mild steel. from my experience with industrial fabricating mild steel is always a min of half the price in materials and 2/3 the price in labour and processing. That and if Mild steel cracks any 1 can grab a mig or arc and weld it up. Where stainless is a pain in the ass, but it serves its purposes well. Saying this if it was for a dump pipe you might find that BCA is more worth while as 1 of the blokes there has R33 that you might be able to get him to do it so he has 1.

I also doubt copying it would be cheaper then buying a complete new off the shelf part.

remember icy cold beer makes friends lol

    • Hey all, a little help from the Stagea hive mind plz.. I'm days away from buying either a 2002 Stagea 250tRS AR-X Four, premium leather, power seats and all the old switches etc that go with it, or a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO, pov pack, cloth seats etc, with coil overs, sports zorst, comes with original zorst and suspension and parts. (I think I've got the models right?) Both are VQ25DET, have 160000kms, both straight no rust both with $2000+ in recent servicing receipts, both ride on aftermarket 18" rims. The Aero has a replaced turbo as well. I like the cool factor of the Aero car but the AR-X has never been modified. Neither have been driven hardly at all in the last 5 years. Any thoughts on which one or does it come down to personal preference? davemoto 
    • Please let me know if anyone has seen my black Nissan Skyline 350GT-8 taken from Robe Terrace, Medindie, SA suspect taken between end of March to early April 2025! Have called impound yards & tow truck operators, no where to be found while I was away overseas! Plates DXPRS1 custom dark green on yellow back. Has a rear lip boot spoiler on the back as well.
