Hi there guys and gals,

If you're in need of tyres for your beloved beast please give Charlie a call @ Bob Jane in Belco, he is a close friend of mine and is now the new manager there.

Just tell him that you're from the SkylinesAustralia forums and that I(Brad) sent you.

Cheers,

Brad

As long as they don't scratch my wheels this time.....or take 4 times longer than they quoted......

Hopefully these problems resolved under the new mgmt.

Charlie took over the role of manager the week before last, so I'm sure he'll be pulling his staff into line pretty quickly.....

Is there any kind of discount or "mates rates" involved with this recomendation or is it purely an advertisment?  

I ask because I need new 19 inch rubber and I'm looking for a good price.

Hey there Stevie,

Definately not purely advertisment :-)

PM me to get my mob number when you're ready to go in and I'll give him a buzz and let him know you're coming....

I spoke to him today and he'll said that he'll do his best to look after us.

Being the new manager is hard for him because he's already starting off with a bad rep which he's trying to fix, so I told him that we'd try to support him as best we could..

Hey Brad, do you know if they stock semi-slicks? Alternately anyone selling some second hand?

Hey there Camma,

If you can get size, preffered brand and other relevant details in regards to what you want I can give him a call or alternatively you can call him on 62532642(ask for Charlie), just tell him the I told you to call. If he doesn't have them, he'll definately try and source them for you.

Or you can try Northwest Tyres in Fyshwick for second handies.

Cheers,

Brad

Excellent. Size would be 205 to 225's in 16". Preferred brand not too concerned but would prefer something in Bridgestone RE55's, Dunlop DO2G's or even some Falken Azenis.

Thanks.

Hey there Glenn,

I've just spoken to Charlie and he said that he's got a Falken in stock, and when you get a chance if you can go in and they can fit it up for you to see if you like them.

Otherwise they can probably order in what you're after.

He didn't have a definate price(for the Falkens) but he said it'll probably be a bit over $200

When you go in make sure that you ask for Charlie and tell him that I sent you.

Cheers,

Brad

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
