DIY Melbourne Mini Mods

Hello learned ones,

I was going to get Simon at QSZ to do some work for me on my '06 Cooper S, but he's not tuning cars anymore. Anyone got advice (good or not) for other workshops around Melbourne that do Minis?

thanks,

M.

Today is the day...

Well, I've found someone to do the mods for me, today is the day

I said goodbye at 7am to stock Cooper S performance, we'll see how she goes with a new pulley, chip, air filter & cat-back exhaust...

I can hardly wait...

Qsz

when did you speak to Simon about mods, he did my car about 2months ago and didn't mention anthing about ending his mini mods business. If it is so it's a shame because i was going to get him to do more work

He's been talking about stopping MINI stuff for at least 3 years.

It was early-mid october.

I decided to go with BM Tech, they're closer than the dealership I purchased from (Peck & Stokes) for service anyway. I should be able to go for a spin tonight if the weather is ok if not I'll go for a decent drive on the weekend.

Sorry dude I live just north of the city. The guys at P&S happened to have pretty much the exact spec S I was looking for (chilli, manual, recaros, chrono, chrome, no stripes) and were happy to chuck me the keys for a test drive without the old "I'll come with you to explain the features (and make sure you don't drive it like you stole it)".
