I dont understand how a business that specialises in exhausts dont know how to intall a cat. a little birdie also told me that they struggle a little in the tuning dept. But like i said REALLY nice guys.

hi aybee,

curious to read some of your comments.

which car is yours,always interested to hear when somebody isnt satisfied.

we dont prime repeater hole as it has a rubber seal on the repeater.

seems strange that we wouldnt put a dimmer in an existing hole,is it in a similar position to the one we fitted.is there clearance at the back of the hole to fit a dimmer switch.

if the cat is fitted upside down we can have that fixed for you no problem,my contact details are below if you want me to organise it for you

with regards to tuning,we dont struggle to do tuning,because we simply dont do it,unlike others we wont fiddle with things we are not equipped to do.

we only do compliance,mechanical repairs,servicing and upgrades.

Don't know if your looking around, but it would defintely pay to at least get a quote from a place called J & S Japanese Auto Importers. I recently needed an engine rebuild (long and sad story), I was getting quotes from $5000 to $3500. J & S did the rebuild for $1500! I've been back many times since and can't fault the quality of the work, and defintely not the price.

I belive their number is 03 9775 0593 - they are in Carrum Downs, which is a bit furhter of than Morrabin - but I say well worth the trip (if only for a quote).

They also seem to be allergic to bullshit there as well, which is a welcome change.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • 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?
