Hi there, my name is James I was priviously one of two mechanics at ATS Australian Turbo Sales (Tullamarine) owner:- Max Haywood & Theo papadopolis the second mechanic is Garry Morrison. Well, I'm currently working as the mechanic at JSA Imports (Bell st Preston). I've been working there as of the 1st of feb 2011 (which is not long I know) BUT!! I thought I might post this comment to give my view on the situation at JSA. Prior to my arrival at JSA. There was a mechanic by name of SAM who I know personally. (unfortunatly) Who was incharge of repairing all the vehicles there. Anyway....., I know some of the vehicles that he worked on and to tell you the truth, I don't know how he got away with it??? and if your one of those unlucky ppl, than I'm truly sorry. So..... this what I propose. For first 10 ppl who priviously brought a vehicle from JSA (reciept of sale required) and who had problems it. I will repair it with no labour cost's. I will perform all the necessary mechanical repairs to your vehicle with YOU! supplying ALL! the required parts to repair it. Thus, proving it to be labour free. For these 10 lucky ppl after I repair your vehicle, I only ask for you to post a comment on here & for you to leave me your contact details. That way the next customer can verify that I repaired you car. That way ppl will know that this is no joke! Why am I doing this you ask???? The reason is simple! It's to rid JSA'S reputation of being doggy. Oh! & just to let you know, we've now moved to number 20 Cope St Preston (about 1km away)

Tell me you saw this on this site to recieve this discount. Thank you all for reading and I hope to see you at the work shop.

JSA is a joke.

-Prices are a joke,

-Cars are an even bigger joke.

Alot of dodgey stuff going on there. Had a friend who brought a Supra from them about 1 year ago, car played up and he went back under warranty and in for a service. Timing belt snapped as it wasnt even changed and they didnt even change the oil and put a $900 bill on top. His mistake and he learnt the hard way. Plenty of other places with a good reputation. Try SSV or J-Spec. Cheaper and higher quality.

I would stay away.

1) Probably wasn't the wisest move bumping a three-year old thread...

2) The best way to improve JSA's reputation would be to change their name to something else...

Two good points but I think the reputation will always follow them..

How many forums is he going to bump old threads on and I actually noticed a few business who have changed there names recently especially in VIC.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
