I spoke to James at D1 Garage about a discount for forum members.

He has agreed to a 10% discount for forum members. He has a container coming soon, so is willing to do deals to clear stock. Plus if you need anything ordered in (he can get almost anything), the discount will apply to that as well.

you asked, you got :P

well I have a problem with axle tramp on cornering and loose floating end feel when I hit bumps in the road (common problem I know) but I don't think its the hicas as everything seems fine

so I'm thinking its the suspension (which is standard) which might be the problem, so I'm thinking pineapples and may be hicas lock kit if problem still not solvered

so I'm looking for somewhere good to do these mods

Jase, James has a hoist, and I have had stuff like clutch replaced, exhaust changed - so no probs there I would say.

He actually has alot of suspension bits coming in this container, including hicas lock bars (one has my name on it) and coilovers, which arrives on friday. Best you give him a call or pay him a visit.

He's pretty helpful guy, doesnt mind offering free advice and spending the time to go through what you need.

Probably best not try on Friday or Sat though as I would say he will be really busy getting stuff from the warf to the shop:)

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
