R33BOY - im a tradesman and i have every right to charge good money for my time and knowlege

if you saw the equipment we have and knew the cost of it you would understand why our rates are high

go price up some factory scan tools as well as some generic ones, plus their software updates and then come back and have a cry

and just fyi BMW charge 185 per hour

Anthony dude.. calm down... these people are admiring yr knowledge which provides you the right to earn such money.

like.. good on ya man...

I think that before you call someone a tightarse though, and u've done it quite a bit of late.. you should realize that not many people have the means of a mechanic/auto elec., don't you think?

Hey if i'm wrong feel free to flame.. i just thought i'd mention it..

im calm mate

i was simply stating to R33BOY that he has no idea of the costs involved in running a business like ours

honestly i was offended at his "how do you sleep at night" comment, because im not one to rip people off

i just hate how people expect tradesmen to work for nothing

anyway this isnt my thread

someone help the guy with his wipers

Edited by 2GU UP

PM send jeffworld,

how long do you rekon it would take?

hey guys, 2gu up has the right to charge whatver price he wants.

all auto eleccys are pricey coz the wiring & electrical side of things is a b*tch,

but please keep this thread clean :rofl:

thanks ugys.

then you got all the model specific tools for all the complicated head case cars out there, the tools needed for nsx's are almost as much as buying a band spanker off the lot.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
