⚠️Attention customers!

Reminder, we are NOT closing, we are MOVING! Lots of you may see the ‘To Let’ sign above the door, but this is a reminder we are moving premises on 26 June and will be re-opening on the 13th July on Gillet St. HU3 4JF (Hessle area, just off St. Andrews Quay)

Taking bookings to get you safe for summer before we move, don’t leave it last minute, wether it be you are due your routine service or yearly MOT close to these dates, or just need a general checkover or repair work, please get in touch so we can book you in! 📅

You can check when your MOT is due using the DVLA MOT check or using vehicle apps like My Car Check. Or simply give us a message and we will check for you!

Exciting times ahead! Moving means we can take on more work, and expand our services even further! ⚙️🔧

Performance Upgrades!🌟⚙️

🇩🇪VW Polo GTi

Return customer in with us for aftermarket parts fitting to his GTi ready for ‘Stage 2/3’ Remap

We fitted a full turbo-back exhaust system, including decat downpipe, 2.5” centre resonator delete with a smaller backbox and twin 3.25” exhaust tips.

We also removed the front bumper & assembly from the vehicle to access the stock intercooler ready for upgrades. We replaced the stock cooler for a much bigger VUDU front mount intercooler, keeping all factory ducting and standard mounting points, meaning no modifications had to be made, just some slight adjustments to the cowling to avoid any contact with the bumper.

🔧Do you have a performance vehicle and looking to upgrade but not quite sure where to start? Give us a message! We will help you explore different options depending on the gain/achievement you’d like from your vehicle!

Long awaited big news that we’ve been waiting to tell you all! We have been here for 3 years now and it’s got to that point we just can’t expand any further due to the size limitations.

With that, a massive Thankyou to all our customers for trusting us and showing your support from day 1 here at RKD! This would not be happening without you🤝

Keeping this post short and sweet as we don’t want any confusion going forward. As you will see, the ‘To Let’ board is up next to our sign, felt this post was needed incase anyone got the wrong idea! We are not closing, just expanding into a new and bigger premises.

-We are here and working as usual until Friday 26th June !!

We will then be moving, so the diary for bookings will be closed from the 26th June to 13th July.

Goodmorning to all of our customers, we hope everyone’s having a fantastic weekend! Just a quick notice, the main phone line is off this week until 19th May (Kieran) is taking a well deserved break away for a week on holiday! ☀️🛫

If anyone is wanting to book in, please only message through the website or use the business page to message, Reece will be at the garage whilst I’m off but taking no more bookings as there’s a lot for him to get through already.

Business will return back to usual on the 19th and we have plenty of availability once I’m back!

Please respect that I am away on my holiday and unfortunately I am unable to take phone calls or fly home to fit you in last minute!

Thankyou all for your continued support and I’ll look forward to being back to it!

Another one of our recent jobs! This one was a big transformation! Customer came to us having supplied lots of aftermarket upgrades for his Clio RS track car🏁

Clio RS in for long list of jobs ready for more track use!

-Customer supplied us with a spare stock rear axle, we got this blasted, and with the supplied kit we did some modifications to the axle. Strengthening kit all fitted up and welded in, stock spring seats removed as the car was now running a different rear suspension setup! We converted the axle from traditional rear axle bushings, to spherical bearings and finish with having the axle powdercoated👌🏼
-Full new coilover setup, now running true rear coilovers on the rear and we fitted Gaz 3 way adjustable coilovers all round
-Gearbox removed, sent away for bearings replacing, and a gripper L*D differential fitting!
-Lightened TTV SMF flywheel fitted with uprated clutch kit and slave cylinder
-Stock these cars don’t all come with a pilot bearing, so we added this!
-Adjustable anti roll bar links and anti rotation links fitted on the front
-New lower radiator support due to a lot of rust on the original!
-Last of all we made some minor repairs to the exhaust system, we found a failed clamp, and some holes in welds, ground back and re-welded and good to go!

Completely transformed the way this car drives, and hopefully this customer is able to knock the time off his lap times after these upgrades!

So we understand this post only appeals to a certain audience, if it’s not what you like, take no notice! But along side what we work on everyday, we also absolutely love motorsport🏁

As most of our customers will have seen at some point and if not those who know us know we love drifting. From building drift cars, to doing drift events and keeping customers cars well maintained, and even the simplest of things like getting wheels and tyres ready for your day. We cover it all, fabrication, engine swaps, aftermarket parts, suspension changes, pretty much everything other than custom made exhaust work, we can do in house here at RKD.

Here’s some photos of some of the cars we’ve built here at RKD, along with lots of photos of some of the things we’ve done so you can see to the extent of what efforts myself and customers go to, to build these cars to do what we ask of them.

This post is a bit of a niche thing, it will only reach the right people, but we wanted to advertise a bit more of the motorsport themed vehicle work we do, as we’re looking to take on more of it and get more people involved in UK drifting. Whether it be a basic jump in seat time car, or a no expense spared built car for the more professional scene.

Thanks for reading, and we appreciate any feedback! Check out our website to see what else we offer!
