    Default Reputable Mechanic/Exhaust/Tune places (ALL STATES)

    There's a bit of info here and there but I thought I would make a sticky on finding a mechanic for all locations. Call it a one-stop-shop to find a decent mechanic. Any and all replys most welcome to obtain enough data to put at least a couple of recommendations per state. Any replies I'll amend this first post to include so the most data is contained on page 1, no missing overlooking or digging through pages to find, international members welcome, I know we have a couple of NZ members on here. Also, If you would like to be added onto the referred list, can do, the more referrals the better.

    Lol, Did you ever think that maybe they thought they would just skip the service and get a new car?! Haha, no worries, amended details

    Cheers Dan, yeah I thought it might be a good idea...why not promote business of good work and why not get good work carried out on your car...it's win win.
    Hopefully this thread proves easy for new and existing members to connect with places to have work done on their ride

    For anyone in Geelong

    Service

    Keleman garage 3/13-15 Crown Street, South Geelong VIC 3220 (03) 5229 9555 () ‎
    - One man team, ex-mazda mechanic. Good for basic services and N/A motors. I take my MPS to him for the 5000km service not the major ones.

    Ask of Pete Druggeri (say Dennis with the MPS sent you)
    Great work. My car came out better than even before it had hail damage on it. No hassle with insurance claims. Did all that for me.

    Wonder if we should make a duplicate thread on this Reputable repairs for your MPS?

    I reckon we should. One thread for services and another for accident and repairs. Should I start a new one?

    I can start it when I find the time, but if wish you can start one by all means. If you do, feel free to copy any templates or info from this thread. Should possibly keep them in a similar format etc. I added colours so certain things stand out and is easy to read. Hopefully both threads prove useful to members in the future.

    I've been madly trying to find a performance workshop in Perth who possess some form of knowledge on Mazda's as they all seem to work on Subaru's, Mitsubishi's and Nissan's.

    Anyway I've come across a company near to Cannington called Top Racing.

    They work on a lot of high performance rotaries (RX7's etc) but they are very keen to move into the MPS arena. They have a modern setup and a very experienced tuner but in saying that I have not had my car into these guys yet but I am seriously thinking about it as they seem to be the best option found so far in W.A.

    If anyone is interested details-

    History/Nature of repair: Reputable Mazda rotary specialist- very keen to move into MPS tuning.

    Cheers Fletch (btw moved post to this thread)
    I'll update the details above to include Top Racing when I find some time.
    Would be worth looking into if they're keen to get involved with MPS's
