anyone needing mechanical perk work?

Postby XSVWGN » Sun Nov 29, 2009 12:01 pm

my younger brother is a mechanic at Powerhaus in Thorndon and asked me to see if anyone needs work done. It will all be done on saturdays and done at Powerhaus.

Hes a wicked mechanic and knows a shit load. Has owned a GZE hatch (slideways now has in his yard :P)and owns a GZE ae100 sedan and helps me with all my 4age bits and pieces.

For all that dont know what powerhaus is etc its a porche and European specialist that are well known on the targa scene

My mercs got what i think is a seized calliper, and gearbox makes a funny noise in reverse... I assume working at Powerhaus he'd be pretty clued up on mercs and stuff? :)

Hey Matt

I still havent bothered to install that gearbox I bought off you.

Any ideas on the pricing for - replacing the gearbox + replacing the clutch (just labour will get the parts myself)

no hurry on it (hence why it still isnt done haha)

Cheers

Roy.
