second that motion col, its an awesome shop.

Brendale has gone crazy, so many new building goin up around that estate, drive through there every morning on my way to work

looking at one inthe same complex as allstar tuning and rotary motorsport. terms are whats killing me on these though.

having to outlay $11K straight up is not easy to do. add to that I want 1+2 and most want 2+1 or 3 yrs solid. this is fun :laugh:

jesus there are some units in brendale. went for a 2 hr cruise last night and found 10 in the space of 30 min. one of which I CAN do if the lease terms are good. its on a major main road as well.. here's hoping.

I'll drop by your shop once you find a spot, I'm getting a GTR, and want to get a laser parking system installed, and possibly audio gear in the future, best of luck finding a place.

TAKE 2!

4/128 Sth Pine Road Brendale (behind JR turk next to solomons carpets across from the truss building factory). its cheaper btw! gave a letter of intent to the agent today.

I know there are a few automotive workshops in the area. I looked at 6 others in the area and those were either tucked off the main road or shells with nothing in them.

I thought this was in a good spot so I went for it.

AND WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!

(the owner of the building took my proposal!! 2yrs + optional year)

stay tuned. I have signage to sort out before I do anything further.

Edited by Chris Rogers

still have to get over the signage hurdle. no point setting this up the way I want if I can't get a sign out front. 90% of business will simply drive past..

but yes its an accomplishment I'm proud of :(

(its taken almost 8 yrs to pull off!)

let me know once your in, would love to swing by with some morning tea + a brewed coffee and catch up

+1 I would be up for that too Col. Congrats Chris it's been a long time coming. Start brainstorming for your opening specials! :(

already working on that. ( it won't be anything too dramatic - still have rent to pay.)

considering having a open day once I get things sorted.

    • Seems to be the case mate , still an OK price for a grey import.
    • I’m interested in the carbon diffuser fins and Toshiba MFD screen replacement if they’re still available.
    • @GTSBoy yeah i know it was not the "great" idea but it is and option...but i think i will stay on no BoV rather then trying to make it work with "half" this and that. But that GReddy FV2 is cool...i like that you can make it like stock if you want (and have/make the custom pipes) For other thanks! it was alot of information. But for the sound...a dont rly "like" both of them...specialy if they are loud...but if i "must" choose i would rather have little whooosh rather than sutututu with no BoV....BUT that is what is i gonna get. So for the all info i gather. In my case:  No BoV is not that bad cuz it is stock...and iam used to put N/clutch right after rpms are around 1000 so it should be ok...just need to avoid "big" drops. But i do not have the engine in the car so i do not really know how "bad" or good it is. But as i had that little test drive it looked ok. The atmo BoV should be worse car would dump to much fuel specialy between the shifts...so without proper tune/ECU i dont want that. BUT with that...car should drive ok with no problems right? (i do like there is less piping wih this solution) 🙂 
    • Usually an RB20 won't stay in closed loop idle anyway. The O2 sensor gets too cold, stops swinging.
    • They aren't, but it depends on what interests you about an R32-R34. If it's the front engine I6 turbo that tunes well with a manual transmission an E92 335i 6MT is so incredibly cheap. You can get a super clean one for 20-25k USD tops. Put an LSD in it, tune it, have fun with it. If it's the general idea of AWD + turbo and a manual transmission the 996 Turbo is absolutely much more expensive, it's less practical but it's also basically a complete track-ready car from the factory. At least the Mezger doesn't have heaps of oil control issues. And in the US the 996 Turbo and R33 GTR are roughly the same price these days. 996 maybe a bit more now that the hype has abated for old Skylines here.
