i bought my car from autoterminal, although the guys from svi tried to tell me that they don't have a license to sell to the public.

Westpoint Nissan Indooroopilly have no idea what they are talking about

i used to get my car serviced there until they charged me for an air filter when i already have a washable pod filter, they also forgot to change the oil and even charged me for it.

bought my car from advanced auto imports in Albion (sandgate road, just down from the breakfast ck hotel.

get it serviced at Chapman & Chapman in Deshon St Woolloongabba. They aren't cheap, but they are pretty good as far as I can tell. They've got a great track record of preparing and racing Targa series 6 RX-7's (3 class wins in 3 yrs aint too shabby)

As far as parts go, I get some of the aftermarket performance stuff off the web (various ppl) some stuff through Chapman & chapman, and the very few dealings I have had with Westpoint Nissan at Indooroopilly has been disappointing to say the least. It has been my experience that these guys are complete w.a.n.k.e.r.s. when it comes to customer service:

Last time I went there, they told me they don't do parts from there anymore, and that I would have to go to Darra parts depot to collect them. I asked politely where exactly that was, and was told to "look it up" and they started serving the next customer.

Dealer = "Stealer" IMHO.

Well well well..

Got my car from streetmachines (DONT GO THERE (this has two meanings))

And get it serviced by Gavin Woods at Auto Tech down the coast. Top bloke.. Top company. The dealings with them that we've had have been excellent. Nothing what so ever to complain about. Prices are excellent and their work and customer services is brilliant.

hey nismogirl,

so does that mean that you finally got all the crap sorted out that the dealer in burnada put you through

did ernie look after you

*WE* got it all sorted out.. $1000 later some problems are still there. HICAS light comes on (the steering sensor needs to be changed which will cost about $370)

They didn't help us one bit. Still haven't heard back from them. Still don't have our safety certificate!

I was looking at a 32 from Streetmachines, but something wasn't quite right...I went up the street and picked up another from AJM instead.:)

Kinda glad I did after reading the last few posts...

Servicing I get done out at Sumner. G & A auto...seems OK - no major probs...

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
