vange, im going to be in town with my car bout 9pm. if your in town afterwards we can catch up. Im getting my diff swapped.

geez mate, coilovers, shimmed LSD.. next you'll be entering drift comps :P

George at Adelaide Prosound's greatest claim when I saw him the second time was that he's 'never had a car stolen or towed away'. Can anyone vouch for this? It's a big claim, but if he can set them up that good however well there has to be something going for him on the installation side of things.

Any installer who makes this claim is either lying, or it hasn't happened yet.

There is nothing an Alarm installer can do to stop someone from towing your car, nor doing anything more than delaying (although with a good setup/install - you probably cost them upto 30 minutes) a decent car thief.

Talk to Chris Rogers, or any other of the recommended guys on this forum.

No car is unstealable, it sucks, but its the truth.

Talking about Coilovers -> Are they legal or not? Had lowered suspension before i went into regency, got em replaced with stock before i went in (while ago now). Just thinking of the possability of going back to something lower as at the moment i hate sitting at van height (well...typical family sedan height)

I believe the "newish" Pedders Coilovers are Australian approved, BUT don't quote me on this, but is worth looking into, but at the end of the day im sure there is something else on your car which would send you to regency anyways, it would just mean that it would be 1 less thing to change back i suppose!

While I agree with Deluxe about there being other things that might send you to Regency, suspension is probably the most easily spottable defect.

It's a pity cars look so much nicer lowered, not to mention the handling benefits of improved suspension.

it will help to a certain extend go too low and then it acts the reverse

Talk to a suspension engineer, tell them what you plan on throwing your car at, and just how much you want to spend.

In turn he will tell you what you need to do in regards to springs, shocks, ride height, wheels and tyres for you to stick to the road.

The answer is never uniformly - lower it 3inches mate.

Thanks fella's. I had lowered king springs, then regency came up for a Turbo timer so had it all removed. Just liked the handling i had before (in my case i know am a few...quite a few inches higher). Cheers though. I'll ring around and get some info :P

Thanks again

Dan :laugh:

Lower doesn't necessarily mean better handling...

I agree, which is why I said "not to mention the handling benefits of improved suspension".

However, while lower does not necessarily = better, invariably all aftermarket suspension kits sit lower than their factory OEM counterparts.

anyone know of sumthin i can add to my car for extra security?

ive got a 3 point immobiliser and i use a club lock.

i dont wanna go unplugging my ecu and crap.

is ther any other lil' thing i can buy to make it harder to steal?

Not too much more.

(1) GPS System

(2) Pager System -> If it works you can sneak up on them and do what must be done (with baseball bat in hand)

(3) Monkey in back seat (Rottweiler or the likes....something with big sharp teeth)

Quick question -> I'm thinking of getting someone else to install the alarm now. Just curious to whether there is a place or person(s) that can install an alarm say bought from eBay or the likes. Rather than like all the main places that install their particular alarm?

i use this mobile installer bout 2 yrs ago for my alarm. specialises in car and audio.

Jap Auto Tech 0413 789 211 ask for Leon

Say Duc (the one with the white r33 and has all nissans) recommended you.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
