Also STD tech rate in australia is 80/hour.
Most performance shops I know will take the 110/hour.

I'll take everyone's advice and try to top up my budget a little to get something better.
I am definitely wanting to go for an S2000, I've had my time with Integras, CRXs and Civics.
One last question, if you've got the stock AP1 rims, what are the best tyres to go for in terms of grip without mods or having to roll the guards?
Cheers.

Im from Adelaide so my experience might be useful - bought my car late last year (2000 S2k 130000K $18000 Silverstone) & as my christmas present to myself had the clutch (to an extreme), gearbox oil, diff oil, replace clutch master and slave done with Daniel at garage91 for $1900. They seem to have done a good job & I have seen other s2k's there although that was my first experience with having anyone work on the car.
Waiting on brake disks for delivery(feb) and debating brake pad types in the meantime as brakes quite worn. Still have back window (badly marked and hazed), rear shocks (rebound control gone) & tyres (eco tyres) to go. Clutch was getting urgent at the time of replacement with bad buzz and the new extreme is massively lighter than the old one - ?due to how old the fluid was. Car had been fairly neglected with minimal use and sitting in a shed. I suspect an accident at some point in history with cosmetic damage as some new paint but no structural parts changed/repaired.
Overall a sound package though.
