Hey everyone,

Last night was pretty crap, heading off to the gym at Knox, P plate driver didn't give way to me as i was going around a corner, collected the rear right quarter of my 32. Damage isn't too bad, just a bit dinted and a deep scratch starting about middle wheel arch and heading back towards the rear of the car. Pretty low speed so nobody was hurt (which is the most important thing!)

Anywayz, I'm looking for a few panel beaters to get some quotes, just wondering if anyone can suggest some places where they have had good results.

The kid who crashed into me has a family friend at "Brett Lacey Panel Beaters" on Highbury road, i said i would contact him first just because it was their preference (and i'm just a nice guy ha ha :sorcerer:). Has anybody been to this place before?

Any help would be most appreciated,

Thanks very much guys :rolleyes:

Ps: Yep, i've done the old "search" and found a few places like "police rd panels" and "DT panels" which have both come up quite a bit, so i will be checking them out

hey mate, sorry to hear..

i had a couple of nightmares with 2 different shops in the past but the third and last shop i went to i was most pleased about the work/service..

Police rd Panels in mulgrave, near the spagetti junction.. they do just car insurance work so they deal with imports often..

hope everything goes well..

Lacey's does good work but they're expensive

Hey mate,

Where abouts are they located?

I don't think the price is going to bother me to much because their insurance will be covering it

Thanks for your help :sleep:

Micolour in Cheltenham (03) 9555 8011. Mick painted some of my car for me and am very happy with the results.

Hey Fry,

Cool, thanks heaps :P, awesome news to hear your car turned out well!!

Colour is one thing that i'm kinda worried about, fixing the dent is one thing, but then getting the colour right so it doesn't stick out is a different kettle of fish eh :nyaanyaa:

Cheers,

Best regards,

Sean

      TPS voltage RB25DET

      By BASHERnissan · Posted

      Hi guys my TPS voltage is reading over 2v at idle.  My Haltech ECU is reading around 40% throttle position at idle also which is really strange. Note the actual throttle position sensor is brand new…    anyone have any experience with this or know how to calibrate it on Haltech ?

      Cas issue

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      The OEM disk will not work on any AEM ECU, you need to use the one they made. You shouldn't have to flip the CAS or whatever you were describing, if you set the ignition sync offset correctly it can't backfire. Make sure you're using a spark plug lead on coil 1 instead of the timing loop to avoid weird issues with the timing light. Double check that your timing settings are actually correct, like is the 24 tooth configured correct or should it actually be 12 teeth for 1 crank revolution? I also found this: 305817248-AEM-Undocumented-Settings-v1-2.pdf

      Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.

      Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.

      Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).
