Hey, I'm in Flagstaff Hill near Happy Valley/Aberfoyle Park.
I definitely don't see many FTO's around here saw one near Goodwood road but that's about it. And I'll get pics ASAP.
Also.. Not sure if i should ask this here but do you guys know a good place to get my timing belt done? My other mechanic services older cars (My old commodore). Thanks :D

what i need done = a full service

what i can get done = belt, as i've got one from mz_madz ride, and beers are cheaper than services...

hahah both of you....


ok for general services ie power ster/alt belts, plugs etc oil and any general stuff im happy to do at a DIY day?.... which i can have at my place..... or can do for anyone at anytime thats suits both of us :D

as for timing belts they are a different story much more time consuming but still happy to do them when i have a longer time frame to work with.... as I dont have a hoist at home they will take little bit longer ;)
