FITMENT > EVERYTHING
Founded by me (Nathanael) from a deep passion of Japanese ‘oni-kyan' & ‘bippu’ culture, plus08 began in late 2021 after hands-on experience building my personal Civic FD2. It began with working on friends cars to taking jobs through Instagram. By 2023, I had worked on over 50 vehicles, and by 2025, plus08 moved out of the garage and into a shared space with Alkebulan Makers Collective located in Braybrook, VIC.
What plus08 Specializes In:
- Fender rolling, suspension installs, and fitment refinement
- Coilover & Air Suspension setups
- Stance & Camber-focused builds
- Track Oriented builds
- Suspension Diagnosing & Tuning
- Developing tailored parts lists for show cars, weekenders & daily-drivers.
By the Numbers:
- 300+ jobs completed in Melbourne
- 70+ CL9/CL7Rs, 30+ 86/BRZs, and 20+ Toyota/Lexus Sedans (GRS, JZS, UZS, UCF)
