Happy New Year.

I'm trying to avoid taking the car across Sydney and was wondering if anyone had used a transmission place in Western Sydney? All the names I can think of are tuning places.

Hopefully the solution is simply gearbox out, replace stuffed bit, gearbox in - but I'd prefer to use someone who knows their stuff just in case it's more complicated than I think it'll be.

Any info/advice would be appreciated! :P Thanks guys.

Give Kevin a call at Specialised Brake & Clutch (GavSport) on Glossop Road, St Marys (next to the hire place near the servo). He's very cluey with the Skylines and if his workshop can't fix it for you he'll put you onto someone reputable in the area.

He's done group buys in the past for SAU (clutches and brake gear) so mention you are from Skylines Australia.

GavSport: 0296730988

Cheers Lanfoh, I might give Pauls a call as well and see if he is more interested in the work.

Ben dude, the closest thing to a 1/4 mile ET is the WSID carpark on the SAU drag day :) I was just wondering if you circuit times had been updated and thought the 14.009 sounded more like a GTSt rather than a GTR time.

Hey what time does WSID kickoff? I've never actually made it out there (only moved here in Nov). If you're just observing, what's a good time to get there? They run ever second Wednesday, right?

Yup as NXTIME stated.

I've only missed 2 wed nite offstreet drags since the venue opened, 1 was coz it was like 40c and the other I was very sick. I've spectated at every other wed nite and raced on about 6 nites over the past 2yrs.

I usually get there at about 6:30pm and leave straight after the burnouts have finished (9:30pm).

Cool, thanks very much guys.

Hey Charlie for your GTStt theme, I have a GTSt horn button if you're keen. GTR one pops right out, swapover will take 2 seconds. Let me know. I'm not after cash, it's just sitting in my garage, may as well have someone get some use out of it :nyaanyaa: I can bring it to the next SAU Drag Day if you like.

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
