25.01.2022 Some of the cool cars in lately. Freshly painted WB Statesman had a new exhaust system custom made. GTS Monaro had a new set of extractors fitted. 1982 Corvette was in for a service and to fix a power steering fluid leak.

25.01.2022 Very tidy Torana came in for some exhaust modifications.

24.01.2022 Found this poor little fellow the other day, he must have crawled into the hubcap and got stuck when the wheel started spinning. Looks like he's been there a while. Not a fun way to go.

24.01.2022 Ray's very tidy HR Premier was in to have the rear brakes sorted and a few odd jobs under the bonnet.

24.01.2022 VC Commodore with an injected 5 litre had a set of Advance Headers fitted and Darrin custom made the rest of the exhaust system. Call and speak to Darrin about all your exhaust needs from standard replacement to high flow sports systems. We can make exhausts for any type of car including original style systems for older classic / vintage cars.

22.01.2022 Had a Triton in for a service, it had some issues with it's tail lights. A closer inspection showed that the blinker fluid was getting low, preventing the globe from working properly.

22.01.2022 Just letting everyone know that our phone lines are currently down (again). Sorry for any inconvenience.

20.01.2022 Thunderbirds are go! Holden Variety bash car in for a new exhaust.

20.01.2022 Beautiful HG Premier in today for a new custom made exhaust. The black EH was in the other day for a set of Advance Headers and custom exhaust. Love the old Holdens.

18.01.2022 Had a VZ Commodore in with the low oil pressure warning coming up on the screen, after plugging in the scan tool and watching the oil pressure on the live data we could see the pressure slowly drop down until the warning sounded. Removing the sump showed how clogged up the oil pickup was with sludge. Cleaned the pickup and sump and reassembled and now it has good oil pressure again.

18.01.2022 Chev Impala was in to have a new standard exhaust made and fitted. The Mercedes AMG had a twin system custom made. Sounded awesome.

17.01.2022 For when you really care about your childs safety in the car

17.01.2022 This beautiful Corvette was in for a new standard exhaust and rear shocks.

17.01.2022 Tough 502 powered HJ ute in for some exhaust mods. The BA XR6 had a set of Advance Headers, hi flow cat converter and custom made sports system fitted, with a special exhaust tip to make sure her other half doesn't drive it too often.

17.01.2022 Wishing everyone a safe and happy Easter. We will be closed for the week and be back at work on Monday the 29th of April..

15.01.2022 Wishing all of our customers a Merry Christmas and a happy new year. Thank you all so much for your support during the year. We will be taking a break from the 21st of December and returning on Monday the 6th of January. Please drive carefully during the holidays. Looking forward to servicing your car in the new year.

15.01.2022 Commodore VZ V8 had it's standard exhaust removed and replaced with a set of South Australian made Advance headers, high flow cat converters and custom made twin 2 1/2 inch exhaust system. The car has transformed from a quiet kitten to a roaring lion and sounds like a V8 should.

15.01.2022 Hi, Are phones are working now. We wish everyone a great weekend. Drive safely in this wet weather.

15.01.2022 We are currently having issues with our phones. If you happen to be calling and are cut off we do apologise. I am trying to write down your number and will call back from a mobile. Hopefully this will be fixed soon. Wishing all a great day.

14.01.2022 Darrin and I went down to the Peter Page Holden trade night on Wednesday where Darrin won one of the door prizes. It was presented to him by Jamie Whincup and Shane van Gisbergen from the RedBull Holden racing team. The prize was an interesting one off piece of Holden memorabilia. Any guesses as to what it is?

14.01.2022 Beautiful 1964 Chev Impala wagon was in a few weeks ago to have a new manifold and carby fitted as well as rocker covers. Today it was back to have a new electronic distributor fitted. Gotta love the old classics.

14.01.2022 Just letting everyone know that we will be closed on Monday the 15th to attend a funeral. We apologize for any inconvenience

14.01.2022 Our phone is currently not working. You will get an engaged signal if trying to call. We are working on diverting the phone.

14.01.2022 One man, two cars. First we did the exhaust on his LX Torana, then a week later, an exhaust on his Chev Suburban

13.01.2022 Yes, we are still open. So if you need a service, new brakes, shock absorbers, steering repairs or maybe a new exhaust the come and see us. We are abiding by the governments recommendations and are sanitizing steering wheels and door handles in cars before and after repairs. Please remember to use common sense when out in public and abide by the social distance rules.

12.01.2022 Unfortunately we will be closed for the next 6 days . Thank you all for your understanding. Stay safe .

11.01.2022 Had a Hyundai i20 in for a service, it had previously been serviced by a dealership and the last one by a local RAA approved repairer. Doesn't look like either of them had bothered to check the cabin filter.

09.01.2022 We will be closed this Friday the 31st to attend Mum's funeral. We apologize for any inconvenience and will be back on Monday 3rd Feb.

09.01.2022 Lean, mean and lime green. LX SLR 5000 torana in for a custom made twin exhaust system.

08.01.2022 We have another 205L Valvoline 150 year anniversary drum (empty) if anyone wants it.

08.01.2022 Thank you to Darryl from Evacuplans SA for testing and tagging all our electrical equipment and checking all the fire safety equipment. If you need some fire extinguishers or fire blankets for your home or business, test and tag electrical equipment or some fire safety training then call Darryl on 0449 660 119. Do you REALLY know what to do if there is a fire? Don't wait till it's too late!

05.01.2022 There's only 2 weeks left until Easter. Don't wait until the last minute to get your car serviced because if there are any unexpected repairs required, you may not be going on that much anticipated road trip.

04.01.2022 We also work on newer cars. This 2013 Ford Territory V6 diesel had a new timing belt kit fitted, a 2017 Ford Ranger had a Pacemaker King Brown exhaust fitted and a VZ commodore had it's timing chains replaced.

04.01.2022 This 60 series Landcruiser had leaking swivel hub and axle seals. The brakes were completely covered in grease and oil, needless to say they didn't work too well. A good cleanup, New swivel hub seals and bearings, wheel bearings, brake pads and brake hoses and machined rotors were fitted. Good as new again.

04.01.2022 Leyland Mini had a new brake master cylinder, all wheel cylinders and brake hoses replaced.

04.01.2022 Had a very tidy Mustang Fastback in to fit an exhaust and custom make a pair of engine pipes to join it all together.

03.01.2022 Our phone is working again. Sorry to anyone who may have had trouble trying to call. Wishing all a great day.

03.01.2022 This Commodore 5.7 litre came in for a new set of lifters. The lifters can only be accessed once the heads are removed. A few days later we had a VE commodore 6.0 litre in with a collapsed lifter. This engine has AFM (active fuel management) that shuts down 4 cylinders when coasting to save fuel. It was 1 of the special lifters used in the AFM that collapsed (last pic)

02.01.2022 A few jobs from last week. Toyota Rukus had a logbook service, WB Statesman had it's rear brake calipers reconditioned, a new Hilux had the standard exhaust removed and a Redback 3 inch heavy duty exhaust fitted and a Kia Cerato had it's standard exhaust replaced with a custom made sports system.

02.01.2022 Couple of English cars in last week, Mini in for a new exhaust and the Humber had a new axle seal and wheel bearing fitted.

02.01.2022 Anyone want a 205 litre 150th anniversary Valvoline oil drum (empty) $10

01.01.2022 A couple of older cars we've had in. The Vanguard had some fuel system issues and the '38ish Dodge is in for new brakes front and rear and a couple of other tweaks.
