Where to get Skyline Serviced

[Got a Pulsar]

So my R32 GTS-T has just ticked over 200,000 k's. Is Trojan still considered the best place to go to have the timing belt and water pump changed?

From personal experience, I would say Yes.

Thumbs up to import parts Canberra, had a timing belt service done by them, and have to say provided the best service by far out of any shop ive been to in Canberra.

Ben has always been a real help for me. Saved me when I needed last minute spares a few times. They'll be doing my diff next Wednesday

On Point Performance in Fyshwick, most trustworthy mechanics and have work on a wide range of cars including imports. Wouldn't take my car anywhere else

hi guys I'm new to this forum. and very new to owning a beautiful series 2 Gtst R33. which by the way Dickson pits WHAT A JOKE. anyway a mate of mine said if i want any work done go and see ESP (Extreme Street Performance) in Queanbeyan. any thoughts on these guys and the work they do?? cause once i get the car into my name i plan on giving him some TLC and getting some half decent power out of my beast.

Welcome to the light. Dickson can be a bit of a pain at times but we all gotta experience that. There are a few shops around where people like to take their car. I personally take mine to Trojan, a skyline specialist out in Mitchell.

Welcome to the Skyline game

They are being more then a bit of a pain with me. have you ever heard them say to anyone rectify your engine tune??? yea i know trojan only because my car 10 years ago when it came into AUS got taken to them for a full rebuild apart from rods. but when i went to see john to get some information about my car he just seemed a bit bland with me, maybe i just ask the wrong questions but yea just didn't get the best vibes which is a shame cause I've seen some of their work apart from my car and they are very good. one thing that also annoys me is no matter who you go to they all say, that persons Dyno is crap mine is the best for F$%# sake can't someone just be honest about their Dyno haha.

and just last night my car on the drive home from ESP decided that its AFM would blow out on me so now i can't even drive my car 3 months I've owned it.....

John can come across a bit like that over the phone. But is truly a great guy to speak to in person. He's honest and won't stuff you around. He's got a very good rep here in Canberra. He may charge a bit, but remember.. you're paying for quality with John. But, in saying that.. I don't really call John unless I am booking in / wanting to buy something from him. but when I do call for his opinion and he's always good on the phone, but yeah.. don't take it personally

Every shop has good and bad feedback, take it for what its worth. I refuse to ever take my car back to Trojan myself. Much better service at Import parts canberra down the road.

[natett]

My supra was tuned with ESP for years. My gtr has been returned by ESP and is a million times better. Most general servicing I do myself. ESP replaced my clutch recently as well. I've never had an issue with they boys there.

I've bought things from Trojan and know a lot of people that have been there without any issues. Really both shops are fine depending on what side of town you're on.

Hi,

I have a v36. Anyone recommend a good mechanic in the fyshwick area?

Cheers,

Paul

Hi all,

It looks like both Trojan and Import Parts and Mechanical are recommended places to take a Skyline.

Ive an R33 (here's my newbie thread http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/462755-first-r33-gts-t/)and want her converted to a manual when I re-locate to the ACT in a couple of months.

Is there anywhere else around the ACT that people recommend/have experience w/ in doing the manual conversion?

Cheers,

Shaun.

any decent mechanics north side for non skyline work (Mazda 3 MPS)?
