πŸ”§ LOWERED RIGHT, ALIGNED RIGHT! πŸ‘Œ

This Ford Everest came into the workshop after having coilovers fitted and lowered elsewhere. Unfortunately, once lowered, there wasn’t enough factory adjustment available to get the wheel alignment back where it needed to be.

That meant it needed more than just another alignment β€” it needed the suspension geometry corrected properly.

After assessing the setup, we fitted adjustable upper control arms, giving us the additional adjustment required to get everything dialled in.

βœ… Adjustable upper control arms fitted
βœ… Suspension geometry corrected
βœ… Full wheel alignment completed
βœ… Alignment dialled in correctly
βœ… Improved handling & road manners
βœ… Better tyre wear moving forward

The result? It now drives the way it should, while helping prevent premature and uneven tyre wear.

Lowering or modifying a 4WD changes more than just how it looks. Getting the suspension geometry and wheel alignment right afterwards is just as important as fitting the parts in the first place.

Whether your vehicle is lifted, lowered or modified, if you're struggling with alignment, handling or uneven tyre wear, bring it in and we'll get to the bottom of it. πŸ”§

This big beauty was in recently in preparation for formal season and car shows coming up!

This stunning old Cadillac came through the workshop for some much-needed attention.

The transmission had developed a fluid leak, was low on oil and had started slipping, so getting that sorted was high on the list before putting some serious kilometres on her.

πŸ”§ Work carried out included:

* Transmission leak inspected and addressed
* Transmission serviced and fluid level corrected
* Fuel tank cleaned out
* Fuel system cleaned through
* Tune-up and adjustments to get her running right
* Full nut & bolt check-over
* Comprehensive inspection ahead of the trip

With an older car, especially one that's about to cover some serious distance, it's all about finding those little issues before they become big ones on the side of the highway.

After some workshop attention, she's running better and getting ready to do exactly what these classics were built for β€” getting out on the road and be enjoyed! πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‘Œ

Got a classic that needs a tune-up, service or a thorough check-over before a big trip? Savins Automotive Service & Northern Rivers Brake & Exhaust can help get it ready for the road.

πŸ’₯ When an LS swap meets a Nissan 300ZX... there's no room for compromises.

This awesome 300ZX LS conversion came to us needing a custom exhaust system that actually fit the car properly.

With the steering shaft, chassis and limited ground clearance all working against us, an off-the-shelf system simply wasn't an option.

So we got to work...
πŸ”₯ Custom fabricated extractor modifications to clear the steering and chassis.
πŸ”₯ Built a full custom dual exhaust system from scratch.
πŸ”₯ Tucked everything as high and tight as possible to maximise ground clearance.
πŸ”₯ Precision fabrication for a clean, factory-quality finish.

Being a lowered car, every millimetre counts. We spent the time making sure the entire system followed the contours of the floorpan, giving the owner the best possible clearance without sacrificing performance or serviceability.

It's the details you don't always see that make the biggest difference.

Whether it's an engine conversion, LS swap, street car, race car, classic or 4WD, we can design and fabricate an exhaust system to suit your exact build.

πŸ’₯ Not every custom exhaust has to be loud. Sometimes, the best work is the work you don't notice.

This stunning Wayne Gardner VS Commodore came to us with a factory exhaust that had completely rusted away.

With a special vehicle like this, preserving its originality was a must. Rather than fitting an off-the-shelf system that changed the look or character of the car, we custom-fabricated a near-identical replica in stainless steel.

To make it even better, we incorporated an X-pipe into the design, improving exhaust balance and flow while maintaining the quiet, factory-style driving experience.

The end result?

βœ… Original OEM appearance
βœ… Custom-built in-house
βœ… Premium 304 stainless steel construction
βœ… Improved durability to help last the lifetime of the vehicle
βœ… Factory-style sound and fitment

This is the kind of work we're passionate aboutβ€”preserving classic and special vehicles while giving them the longevity they deserve.

Whether you need:
πŸ”Ή OEM-style replacement exhausts
πŸ”Ή Stainless steel upgrades
πŸ”Ή Performance exhaust systems
πŸ”Ή 4WD exhausts
πŸ”Ή Classic or muscle car restorations
πŸ”Ή One-off custom fabrication

We've got the equipment and experience to build it right.

Another extremely happy customer, and another special car ready to enjoy for many years to come.

PSA
πŸš— Pink & Blue Slip Inspections πŸš—

We understand it's frustrating when your vehicle doesn't pass a Pink or Blue Slip inspection.

However, our inspectors are licensed by Transport for NSW and must follow the NSW Vehicle Inspection Manual. We don't make the rules, and we won't break the law to pass a non-compliant vehicle.

Please remember:
"It passed last year."
"My mate's car is the same."
"I'll take it to the dodgy guy down the road."
"Another mechanic would've passed it."

None of these change the inspection outcome. Every vehicle is inspected on its condition on the day and against the current NSW standards.

We also have zero tolerance for abuse, foul language, threats or intimidation towards our staff. Taking photos, posting negative comments online, or trying to pressure us into changing the result won't help your case. We will always choose to protect our licence, our staff and the safety of the public over passing a vehicle that doesn't meet the legal requirements.

If your vehicle fails, we'll happily explain why and what needs to be repaired to make it compliant.

Our commitment is simple:
βœ… Do it right.
βœ… Do it legally.
βœ… Keep NSW roads safe.

Thank you to the many customers who respect that we're simply doing our job and doing it properly.
