I have been working at Performance Warehouse for a couple of months now.

We have a wide range of parts for the car enthusiast.

Check out our website or ring me if you need further details about anything.

We ship all over Australia.

Yes Rob, 17 Moncrieff Road, where they've been for about 100 years.

 

Might have to get a couple of these for my Torana.

Am l right in thinking that Performance Warehouse had some retail outlets back in the 80's. I recall Bell Street Heidelberg, Princes Highway Dandenong and top end
of Elizabeth Street in Melbourne.
Of course this was all back before computers and political correctness killed the corner speed shop.
Is Nunawading still open for walk in retail sales?

Yes there were some retail stores, don't know where they all were but I remember buying a carby from Moncrieff Road back in the early 90's.

 

Nunawading is still open for retail, its more of a warehouse than anything, but you are more than welcome to come in and browse our catalog or pick up something you have seen online.

The reason I asked is a couple of years ago I was looking for double overhead chrome dipsticks for the Grease Slapper.
I Googled the name and nothing came up? :dontknow:

I was living in Blackburn at the time................a mere dropkick from Nunabloodywading.

Any outlets on the Gold Coast? We're coming over for the 600, and I need front discs for my HJ.

Prices here range from $82 for cheap chinese DBA,  up to $193 for ex Lucas TRW.

I can get a pair of Brembo on TradeMe for $216, but your prices are usually better... less freight.

Dave - We don't sell brakes, every man and his dog sells them on ebay......

 

Rob - Can't help with the dual overhead chrome dipsticks, but how about some dual overhead chrome rocker covers for the big block 253 that you're building ?

We have recently unearthed some NOS Hurricane extractors. We have very limited stock of these, there are no Torana ones at this stage, but there are heaps of Jap ones, and a few Holden and Ford sets including a set to suit VN-VS V8 for $260 !

This use to be the place to shop in Melbourne in the 90's but went quiet after that, thought it went dead. How does a company go so wrong, surely they know the meaning of promoting and advertising as well as ebay. Hope they do better now.

If you are after any sort of insulation, whether it be under floor insulation, exhaust wrap or heat sleeves for wires and hoses in your engine bay we can help.

Check out our range of quality (US) Cool it - Thermo Tec products.

Sadly kangur's observations are correct.

This company hasn't kept up with the times.

I'm not working there any more.
