Is Northern BM having running another workshop soon? I'm looking to replace brake pads front and back, and the rear rotors, so would like some guidance and help.

Anyone else got work that needs doing?

Harlequin · 05-06-2012, 11:09 AM

I need to do an oil change... And I don't have Ramps/Jacks...

BBK · 05-06-2012, 08:01 PM

I could do some mod removal work...

How do you find their charges?

BBK · 05-07-2012, 12:29 AM

Have been for a while, just can't find nor sell!

Yeah they don't work by the hour, and usually a few drinks or sausages is all it takes for a charge pipe install!

'Wouldn't mind some experienced help fitting my Helix IC. Anyone local done an IC install? I'm guessing Vinney has. I'm prepared to pay double the normal NBM rates.

Double?! Holy crap... high roller in the house!

My rotors and pads should be here in a week or two? Is everyone ok to come to the Oxley workshop or is NBM opening a new shed?

Is everyone invited?

I just installed BMS occ, so I wouldn't mind someone to make sure the install is ok. Slight crimp on the u-bend hose

BBK · 05-07-2012, 04:15 AM

Melb. I'm assuming oxley workshop is in melb? Or am I completely off??

BMWRX · 05-07-2012, 04:21 AM

There's an Oxley in Melbourne?

Shark, you may want to use the services of Southern BM.

sharkatron · 05-07-2012, 04:25 AM

Sorry guys, realized I've just made a dk of myself. When you said NBM opening a new shed, I thought they were expanding within Victoria, not brissy.

BMWRX · 05-07-2012, 04:29 AM

No harm, no foul Shark.

BBK · 05-07-2012, 05:17 PM

So I happened to drop into NBM last week and may or may not have got some suspension installed...

Too low?

...says the guy who needs to take his car back to stock.

Looks good, although a tad low for my liking.

Harlequin · 05-08-2012, 05:28 AM

That is seriously low...

BBK · 05-08-2012, 06:00 AM

Yeah... that's what a boot load of pavers will do :-p
