Autoworks

MTA Queensland Member Business Profile

Business Address: 171 Evans Road, Salisbury.
Services provided: You will often here us say ‘Everything Automotive’. And that’s what we do, including general serving and repairs, auto electrical, wheel alignment, tyres, dyno tuning and modification plates.


How long has your business been operating?

5 Years.

What sets your business apart from your competitors?

Modified cars are what we love – customising the car to suit the owner.

We work with the owner to help them achieve their dream car. It may be a 1971 BMW 2002 for an engine management conversion or a Supercharged XR8 weekend racer. For us it is all about helping the owner get the results they want.

Do you utilise innovation or technology in your workplace?

What is important to us is the principle of Kaizen – constant and never-ending improvement. Tool-wise we use a dyno, aftermarket ECUs and flash tuning software. The oscilloscope and the scan tools get good use too. Sometimes a simple HEI spark test tool or a voltmeter is the best tool for the job. With all the different cars we see, we often need to think outside the box.

Do you have ways of supporting your community?

A few years back we were asked if we could provide some work experience for teenagers with learning disabilities. This work experience allows them to achieve a Cert II in underbody or similar. This year we have our fourth work experience teenager on board.

Do you have any business achievements (or people) you are particularly proud of and why?

I would have to say that the biggest impact we have had is educating customers to understand more about their vehicles. This empowers them to make the best decisions for them and their car.
