The mag shop in Osborne Park.

Can anyone tell me if they have closed down?

Been there 3 times now during business hours and they were shut.

Turned up at 4 today and there is a sign to say will be open at 10.30am tomorrow but don't know how long that sign has been there.

have you tried ringing them? they should probably give you a straight answer.

the site also says "We are currently in the process of opening our brand new store in Osbourne Park", perhaps they are only open for a few hours so they can set everything up?

those kind of places only really have commodore and falcon rims and not too many jap rims

obviously theres MR mag, again i dont know how many 'great' jap rims theyve got but worth a try

I didn't think they were open on a Saturday; they weren't on the couple of Saturdays that my friend and I went to have a look. This was a few months ago however. I pass them on a regular basis and didn't get the impression that they were closing.

took 3wks to get my wheels, which initially was sposed to only take 4 days. never got any calls to say there was a delay, had to call them EVERY TIME.

got given wrong lock nuts, now i need 4 new studs.

customer service, they have none.....

u get what u pay for i guess, i am very happy with the wheels but thought that dealing with a local company would have been easier than dealing with over east, now i regret it....

Just got my tyres from a bloke called Javed at WestState Autobarn in East Perth, just next door to the Golf box at the East end of the tunnel.

I can't vouch for dealing with him extensively as he just put 2 tyres on some rims for me, but he had a Sh*tload of rims floating around there. Big ones too. Can anyone say 19"x13"?!?

Could be worth a look...

Chris,

Buy direct from japan. I got my works wheels recently through Perfect Run, took about 10 days door to door and saved a heap of cash... The guys there are great, have bought a lot of stuff and never had a problem.

They don't list rims on their website, but tell them what you want and they get it....

Highly recommend them...

Even with customs duty, gst and inspection fees it was still over $600 cheaper than any local shop could supply them for...

cheers

Brett

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      By nouveau_poor · Posted

      Absolutely could be. I collected data logs from when the O2 sensor was still out and also after I had replaced it so will try to compare them. Pretty confident that the affect is lowered with the new sensor, will check logs at the same RPMs/conditions.

      thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price

      Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?

      Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
