Let me guess, you didnt bother to go back to them or call them and give them the chance to resolve the problems?

Regarding your boost issue, obviously UAS had a concern about putting any more boost through your engine - would you have preferred them to just wind it up anyway and run the risk of possible engine damage? Come on

mate if you had got your car done with me and there was a problem i would hope you would bring it back so we could sort out the problem because if you didnt and then started talking shit about my workers they would track you down and give you some shit so you should watch what you say i sure john would have taken another look at it for you if you had of given him the chance

I should hope your post isnt directed at me Jason, you might want to watch who you quote in your posts :)

Hey everyone i wasnt trying to stir shit, just adding my opinion on a workshop. I did speak to john in person about the problem. I wasnt happy, he wasnt happy and i told him then and there that i would never recommend UAS to anyone. Im surprised a newb to your forums could cause such a fuss people. :P

That's right - it's most likely because of the fact that you are new to these forums that you've only received a caution.

Put it this way, if someone uses these forums to say something negative against a business, that business could sue the forum OWNER for defamation, and if that happens the forums may well be shut down as a consequence, and then we ALL suffer... We've built up a good community, and in many cases a new network of friends both online and outside in the real world - lets help it stay that way.

it doesn't really matter to me whether you were intentionally trying to stir shit or not. you posted up half a negative story and named a business. I've explained to you that it was against the rules. You either learn from this, or you do it again and I will come down on top of you like a 16 year old virgin on top of Angelina Jolie.

John being a business owner with a reputation that was hard earned and hard to protect has done the right thing and contacted you to see what your exact problem is. So if there is still some issue, then contact him back and resolve it. If not just accept it and move on. The very fact the he asked me to leave your (potentially damaging) comments on an open forum and actually wanted to resolve your problem should indicate to anyone that he owns a workshop worth using.

Anyway, let's all get past it shall we?

I don't have a problem with someone not recommending or warning others if genuine and preferably consistent poor service but not if exaggerated. Also if one person at a business as seems in this case a mechanic and years ago it seems then it does not mean that business is not good for ever more. I do not know who you are but I have sent a PM to Wateva to find out who and what and where years ago so I can at least see what happened or did not happen. Wateva you wonder why some are taking your post as aggressive or possibly over the top and not asked for anyway but rather where to go. If we were stealing form you or actually doing really bodgy work and did not want to do anything about it then different. It is so rare even though we do some very technical difficult work one can bank on some not understanding or taking things the wrong way or as mentioned can't be pleased. I can't comment on this case at all as I said I don't know who Wateva is or his car and years ago and probably a few thousand Skylines later. I know I always try and do the right thing by customer to the point where I regularly get handles but give customer the benefit of the doubt and warrant and cover costs I am sure few workshops would.

Tell us who you are or PM me with rego details and name and I look up what terrible thing we did.

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
