ok, got my car back today from the compliance workshop , i have a feeling i might have been ripped off a tad. Any body say weather i have or not b4 i start complaining. heres the invoice. 15 Yo vehicle compliance $1000 includes: mirror, noise test, intrusion bars, child restraints and raws sign off EXTRA PARTS: seat belts $300 brake pads $44 steering rack boot $20 hose (radiator they said) $12(thought these hoses cost more) globes hic [2] $35 globes hi[2] $12 coolant $15 freight $16.5 and heres the biggie thats got me wondering labour $528 (i thought labour would be included in the $1000 but i must be wrong :unsure: ) then gst $198 any feed back would be great.
hmmm... $1000 is a decent price for just the compliance issues (intrusion bars etc). That is a total price including labour. parts for this don't cost much. parts prices seem reasonable (not sure about seatbelt prices though). labour price is high if it is just to fit forementioned parts. don't think its for the intrusion bars etc, because as i said, parts for that don't cost much. Overall it is a bit nasty, but not hugely outrageous.
Seems steep You're saying $1980 total plus GST. I just had two done in Bris, one was $980, the other $1099, (new battery) all inc GST.
PERTH PEOPLE, DONT GO TO DOWN UNDER AUTOS FOR COMPLIANCING Mate you got ripped real bad!!!!!! even with your additional work it should not have been that much!!!!!! That is screwed mate! You should talk to Geoff "Prestige Motorsport" to remove them from his list of reputable compliancers, as they are dodgy bastards!!!! I went to "AUTOWORX", very friendly, very nice. You get the rundown of pricing before they do any work, so you are completely satisfied. I did call Down Under up, but didn't like there service and lack of giving me estimated prices. So went to Autoworx...Glad I did now. Mate you should write to consumer affairs! Here is a break down of my costs: * ADR Sign out inc noise test Nissan 300zx Vin no. inc stamp dutyn new Vin number and associated paperwork $330 * Supply and fit side intrusion bars $550 * Tyre information placard $5.50 * Engine emission placard $5.50 * Supply and fit ULP restrictor and "Unleaded only" sticker $55 * Supply and fit flat drivers side mirror glass $25 * General check over for licencing (no charge) TOTAL COST $971 (2 seater model) Add $300 for 2+2 rear seatbelt restraints TOTAL COST $1,271 (2+2 model) (Got paper work to prove it all)
RE SEAT BELTS .... i paid $236 for two rx7 belts recently .. for rwc compliance ... presume zed belts would be a bit more ..
