About us

The workshop
behind the badge.

JDM heritage, suburban honesty. An owner-run workshop that treats your Camry rego inspection with the same care as a weekend project car.

Our story

Bayshore standards,
suburban honesty.

The name 湾岸 Wangan references the Bayshore expressway in Tokyo and the late-night culture built around it. We carry that enthusiasm for cars into everyday work — roadworthy certificates, logbook servicing and honest repairs for drivers across Melbourne's south-east.

But the references are seasoning, not the meal. Day to day we are a straight-talking Oakleigh South workshop: we diagnose before we touch a spanner, quote clearly, and finish on time. Whether it is a Hilux logbook service or a brake refresh on a weekend car, the standard is the same.

The team

Run by two
who care.

Wangan Performance is owned and run by Vajira and Kasun — hands-on founders who would rather earn a repeat customer than make a quick sale.

You will deal with the same faces every time. That accountability is how we have built a perfect 5.0 rating across 127 Google reviews — by doing the work properly and being straight with people.

What we stand for

Three principles,
every job.

These are not slogans — they are the reason 127 drivers keep coming back.

Diagnose first

We find the real fault before we quote, so you pay to fix the problem — not to chase symptoms.

Honest every time

Clear pricing, no upselling, and we tell you what can safely wait. That is how we earned 127 five-star reviews.

Owner-operated

You deal with the people whose name is on the door — not a call centre or a rotating roster.
