Hey guys,

Had a friend who took his skyline to Autostyle Garage at Beverly Hills just for a minor servie, i went with him... amazing work going through there- R35's, Ferrari's, Porsche's, Lambo's, etc. They were working on a 1100HP+ Supercharged XB Falcon while i was there, off its head. Believe it or not, reasonably priced too for a mechanics who you'd think would be expensive dealing with the prestiege market... What does everyone else think of the service there? whoose been there?

I sore they had the TUFGTR, the black one... nutts. lol! RB26 2.8L stroker kit making 650KW ATW :O

Thanx for the message there Dan... as established, that happened along time ago! New management & ownership are running the workshop now!!

I still recomend Autostyle, im thinking also of taking my car there for some work. I do know they do FREE QUOTES over the phone, thats how we booked in the service on the Skyline (R34), i think the number is 9570 1066 and the best guy to speak to is Frank lol

Could you share the story with me as well. I'm looking for a new mechanic to service my v35.

Me too please if you don't mind. You always hear the good stuff publicly but it's behind closed doors that the bad stuff comes out too.

Also this thread sounds very much like an ad. Are there places that don't do free quotes over the phone? Or do you mean quote as in the beverly hills place will quote you and honour it, because I've found that if there's one broken or worn or corroded bolt or something the labour price goes up and the quote goes out the window...

haha i run an advertising/PR business, apologies if any language or wording used implied that.. dont mistake this for an advertisement, i was just wondering peoples opinion of the workshop and if anyone else had gone there from the forum?

It is sad to see though that one story from 3years ago brings bad attention to the workshop today, im sure there's bad stories about every workshop in Australia floating around...even the well known one's! Things change in my opinion, if you look at the recent work that has been done from there- i think the game has been stepped up alot (in both better quality of work & service). I dont think they would be working on Lambo's & Ferrari's or even 1000+ HP cars if they didn't have a clue whats going on!! The proof is in the pudding, the work thats gone through... we've taken an R34 there, be the judge for yourself is all i can say- thats my opinion!

dont wanna be a dickhead but ur the guy that runs east coast cruzin yeah?? if so LU57IN is helpiing spread the word about Autostyle and in return have lambos and shit come on the cruises. All i know about Autostyle is that they have awsome cars on display. I drive past there basically everyday.

:/ Yeah i am man haha... cheers for that!! Got a madd one coming up in afew weeks to Palm Beach YEEWW

When i heard one of my mate taking the car there to their workshop, i thought i'd go along with him to see the work they do there... and have a chat to the guys aswell!! The Lambos and stuff aside from attenting my cruises, dont get it mixed up- this isnt a promotion or advertisements for the workshop... its just a discussion. So back to the topic... whose been there? And what did you think of what you got?

The workshop is seperate right?? its near the amber at beverly hills yeh?

all i know is the Showroom is usually packed with some awsome cars and tough GTR's

Youtube examples

Niccee! Those video's are sick... crazy GTR's!!! Nuttz how he can drifit an AWD at such high speed :ninja: i want to be able to do that. lol! I managed to film a Gallardo pulling out of the Garage when i was there too; its on the East Coast facebook page if anyone wants to check it out.

Yeah the workshop is seperate, its around the corner from the showroom is all i know, i wasnt driving... Im not very familiar with Beverly Hills area. I looked on their website, they are located on Penshurst Street: AutoStyle Garage Website!

In the showroom they had some crazy stuff ay haha. That RX4 & Yellow R32 GTR looked the goods harrddd :w00t: Ferrari's and Lambo's, i'll keep dreaming :P

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
