Hey all

My car has done 116,000 and I'm not sure if it's had the major service done. Can I please get some recommendations of places to potentially get the major service done at, which will do quality work, not f**k my car up, and not charge me the world for it too?

Cheers

i got my 100k service done at nissan wooloongabba

cost 1400 bux (got a heap of things done and replaced, including timing belt, most piping under the hood (it was all perishing), new thermofan

No way I will be spending $1400 though lol.

car needed it, so i spent it

i dont scrimp on maintenance yo

should be a sticket on cam cover saying when timing belt was done

I swear by Chapman & Chapman in stones corner. No bull phecies with a big list of credentials like several targa cars etc. I can only speak from personal experience: put my car in for a tune up due to having a few idle issues. After some base settings tweaking and the correction of a few problems my car is going the best it ever has since i've had it!

In fact a couple of people have commented on how quick it is for a stock as a rock (except for an exhaust) R32

Only my experience. Not gospel. :)

i used chapman and chapman originally as well

they did the inspection for my car and found heaps of things for the dealer to fix

i loved deb their reception girl as well, she was awesome, always remembered my car and who i was

they just cost a fortune

but, i believe u get what you pay for, definately use them if u dont mind paying

Allstar Tuning at Geebung. Did my big service and all other services, no complaints, fairly cheap, good advice given too.

Agree with ya there, Just recently got an aftermarket ECU for my GTR done at allstar. Cars running sweet getting 233Kw on 14lbs, Everyday driving is a dream now.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
