About RJM Performance

Meet Riley Matthews.

Daily driver or weekend weapon, looked after with the same care, workmanship and straight talk.

At RJM Performance, we look after everyday drivers and enthusiasts with the same care, workmanship, and straight talk. Based in Somerton Park, we combine reliable logbook servicing with precision upgrades, so your car feels tight, safe, and genuinely better to drive.

We keep things simple: honest pricing, clear timelines, and work that speaks for itself. From routine maintenance to suspension setups, brake packages and full engine rebuilds, everything is done in-house by techs who actually love cars. If something doesn't need replacing, we'll tell you. If there's a smarter way to repair or upgrade, we'll show you.

What matters to us is how your car feels when you pick it up. Responsive, confidence-inspiring, and ready for whatever you've got planned next.

What we stand for

How we work.

  • Honest pricing and clear explanations

    You'll know what we found, what it costs and why it matters before a spanner turns. If something doesn't need replacing, we'll say so.

  • Workmanship that prioritises safety and feel

    Brakes, suspension and steering done properly, so the car stops straight, sits right and feels tight on the road.

  • Enthusiast knowledge without the ego

    We love cars and we'll talk you through options for your model and goals in plain language. No jargon, no talking down.
