    Default VR SS Rear Mounted Turbo ute - Reccomendation for Engine rebuild and new diff???

    Ok i have a SS ute with a standard 308 in it at the moment, I had the ute at a shop and they have installed the turbo and exhaust only. (They mucked me around and thats about all i got for $10,000) I am now looking to complete the project some where else but am wary of dodgy shops or rip off artists after this lot... I am wanting a few referrals to suitable shops to take the car too in Gold Coast, Tweed, Murwillumbah Areas... List below is what i need, so if you have had good work done let me know PLEASE!!!

    * Stroking the engine
    * Head rebuild (mild porting)
    * Installing the Cold Side of Turbo to engine, Oil pump, air pipes, intercooler, BOV etc.
    * New Diff to be built (i have 305 wheels so diff will need to be shortened)

    If you have had bad experiences also let me know so i can compare all.

    Thanks
