Hey guys,

I am sure that theres some really good Performance workshops in victoria that people goto to get certain parts.

So why not help some people out (like myself) who are looking for parts and post some links/contacts to sites/people they may have been to or spoken too (In victoria or close interstate)

And make sure we get some specelised performance places in here as well. eg, places that do headwork, polishers, turbo places, exhaust places, panel beaters/sprayers, part importers, transmission places (For Zdenko, who just thought that 4th gear would look good lying on the road! :shake:), and any other genrals like Car Audio places, good dynos tuning places, and wreckers.

LoL CHeers boys!!!

There is a list down a few pages if u have a look.. its pity there isn't a separate board/page whereby which we can add these sorts of things. Doesn't look like the forums will progress much from being just the forums from what i've seen so far, which is a pity 'cause some areas like this would be really useful.

For all Jap import parts goto:

Centeral Motor Wwreckers 5332 1721

Manual Autos 9466 4499

Both of these guys operate in victoria and both visit japan regulary and have a heap of stock

And turbos, ATP all the way kyp knows his stuff 9569 4764

Anything ells go to Dr Drift

UPI (Ultimate Performance Imports)

www.upimports.com.au

Heard good things about these guys, don't know personally tho. They've got RAWS approval as well, which should be handy. Can get parts, do compliancing, servicing. well. just check the website.

    • 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.
