Suspension kits, clutch, intake and exhaust - proper gains, done properly.

About this service

Performance Upgrades

Bolt-on gains are easy to buy and easy to get wrong. We plan upgrades around how the car is actually used - a touring 4WD, a weekend V8, a daily that just needs to breathe better - and fit them properly so they work together. Suspension kits, clutch upgrades, air intakes, exhaust systems, cam shaft packages and diesel tuning, with straight advice on what's worth the money and what stays NSW-legal.

Performance Upgrades FAQs

Common questions from Newcastle and Lake Macquarie customers about performance upgrades.

Are performance upgrades legal in NSW?

Many bolt-on upgrades are fine within the NSW light vehicle modification rules; others - like significant suspension height changes - need certification. We tell you before any work which category your plans fall into, and as an inspection station we know exactly what gets looked at come rego time.

What should I upgrade first?

It depends what you're chasing - towing performance, reliability, sound or outright power. The honest answer is often not the shiniest part: a tired clutch or worn suspension undoes any gain. We look at the whole car and build a plan in stages that suit your budget.

Do intake and exhaust upgrades actually make a difference?

On their own, modest gains - the real value comes when intake, exhaust and tuning are matched as a package. That's why we quote upgrades as a combination rather than selling parts one at a time.

Can you upgrade my 4WD for touring and towing?

Yes, suspension kits rated for the load you actually carry, clutch upgrades for heavy towing, intake and exhaust for the turbo diesel, and tuning to bring it together. Tell us the trips you do and we'll set the vehicle up for them.
