    Whatever you get around to doing PP,please dont go to Exotic Car Parts,in Silverwater,for any form of business,let alone a PPI :D Wouldnt trust them as far as i could throw them,and i reckon im pretty damn strong too. :D Terrible experience with them last year and was also told alot bullsh*t on the phone and there in person. They do PPI's/service's and repairs in their workshop also. They have a really good service/workshop, just not sure about the guys that work there but.................:eek:

    You won't go wrong with Rudolf Masi of Newtown, he recently did a PPI on two 328's for me. The second PPI he actually flew to Brisbane with me. He is very thorough, honest & a damn good mechanic. All you have to do is look in his workshop & see the veriety of cars there. Tell him the fanatical fastidious Walter sent you. His mobile number is 0418 248 452, you will not be dissapointed.

    Met him. Seems like a good guy. Very good reputation.
    But seriously, could we send you to someone we like?
    What type of car?

    Gidday Maurice, after fixing the radiator, RUST!!!, spoiler, electrics, oil leak, flywheel, clutch cable the QV is going great thanks.

    It spends a lot of time on the hoist in my garage but then so does the 2300 as I like to keep my cars mechanically good but it does a lot of miles (the speedo is in mph) , about 4,000 miles since getting it 4 months ago and the engine is getting better all the time.

    Is your GT4 getting any closer to the road ??

    need any more bits, like suspension ??

    Wow, he's been around for a long time, used to have his workshop around Darlinghurst/KX and owned 308GTB. A friend of mine always said he was really good.

    He is quite eccentric and works on his own(no apprentice or secretary etc). He is extremely passionate about Ferrari and treats my cars like his own. Most trustworthy and loyal mechanic I have ever met
