Hi all

Just after some opinions on decent places to get a wheel alignment..

Would do myself, but my mates machine doesnt fit around my rear wheels as they are in the guards..

So.. where can i go..

tried pedders Phillip... cant get on hoist, because my car is too low, and the front bar will hit.

Went to Inline... and im guessin they do read these forums. but.. i was delt with in a rude manner... and i dont buy that.

Capital steering did my suspesnsion to start with and it had been back a few times to be fixed..

So.. im not tryin to diss anyone, but is there anywhere that do a good job, and can get my car onto the hoist?

Thanx guys.

Inline were rude to you? That's interesting.

Did you speak to Chris?

I think that Discount Tyres in Belco or Gunghalin (Which ever one(s) that Marc with the Stagea works at) was pretty well liked by the people on here. I wouldn't know as my car's always been to Inline.

I couldn't imagine Chris being rude to anyone, he was always very professional when I dealt with him.

Also, Marc doesn't work there anymore just in case anyone gets confused.

Chris, Inline, rude? Strange, although I will say it is run a bit differently to most workshops, but rude?

Im interested to know who you spoke to, cos Chris wouldnt be rude. He has done all of my suspension work and when it comes to wheel alignments, there is no way I would go anywhere else, hes a shit stirrer though.

But I guss not everyone can be happy. And im definately not having a go at you.

I walked in just to ask prices and times that wheel alignment can be done...

wasnt bein a dickhead.. just a casual person.. told him everyone here recommends him..

And just the way i was delt with, really didnt go well with me.

he never said it was chris when i last went there was more than one guy working there so maybe he just got a guy in a bad mood ??? either way similar to others i have found chris himself a cool person to deal with but if they gave that sort of service to me i personally wouldnt go back either.... luckily that has not happened :wave:

most places should be able to do a wheel alignment no dramas as you mentioned it's just a matter of if your car clears the hoists etc.

ahh ok. The only other person that works there is Carol, but she doesnt know cars at all. If you went there at the start of the year, I think he had someone working there, but im not sure.

Either way, you wouldnt be dissapointed with the outcome.

PS, they dont read the forums.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
