 KART BUILDING & REPAIRS
 Our karting history began in the 1950’s, with the late Bob Williams and a few friends making some of the earliest karts
  in Australia.  Today we supply the best that the industry can give us to help our customers find that winning edge.
 The preparation of any kart is mainly dependant on its intended use, so it is hard to ‘quantify’ such a process into
 a dollar value.  But here are some regular jobs that we perform that will act as a guide. 

 Re-powdercoat a bare chassis  …  must be stripped bare             from $185.00

 Re-jig and powdercoat an ARROW brand chassis …  must be
 stripped. Takes up to 4 weeks and is done at the DPE factory        $650.00

Ultrasonic Parts Cleaning

This is just something to see,  carbs, alloy engine mounts or crankcases can be cleaned to look as new!!   

Old carbs that have corroded due to the use of methanol and other exotic fuels can also be cleaned up. 

Soda Media Blasting

This is a method of cleaning all of the alloy parts of an engine and carbs that has been impressive.

We can clean up most used parts, and even fire damaged and tarnished cylinders, heads and crankcases have been brought back to looking like new again.

2 Stroke Cylinder Porting - It's what we do best!!

Our many years of 2 stroke engine tuning includes our never ending work in performing cylinder modifications. 

We use porting tools that work,  and with such a vast experience in this very delicate and demanding area we can usually provide a job that is the equal of anything from across the globe.

Ignition Testing & Timing

We are setup to handle Yamaha KT100S and KT100J ignitions (which covers the ARC also), so if you have one that needs testing, or you want accurate timing marks engraved on yours, then we can help you. 

Kart Tyre Fitting

We have the right tools and the know-how to make changing kart tyres easy. 

Walbro WB-3A Carburetor Tuning & Modifications

In 2006 we spent many hours out testing with our junior drivers in the National classes.  By the end of 2006  we were able to produce a better performing WB-3A carburetor with revised drillings and o’ringed throttle shaft.  This was our 1612 version carb.

Thru 2013 we improved the carb, now offering an NJ model carb with even better response.

Engine Tuning & Repairs

We apply 50 years of experience to:
– Top-end rebuilds
– Complete engine rebuilds
– Blueprinting
– Dirt Kart “race tune” or “fully modified tune”

Thread Repairs

Including Helicoils, Timeserts (flanged inserts), and Spark plug thread weld and retap
