Hi,

I've been trying to book my car in at Speedworks since the start of the new year.. No-one seems to be answering the phone. Had a friend check the shop itself last week while i was at work, and he said it was closed for Xmas till the 14th of Jan.. but yesterday and today i've had no answer on the phone again.

Thought i'd double check the phone number is 9242 8888 ?

Anyone know if they have reopened?

Their website seems to be dead aswell.

damn..

Any suggestions on where to get my car fixed? .. i'm in the Wembley area.

Had a problem for a few months now where the car misfires under load when it's hot. Originally around 4000rpm.. been getting worse with time / increasing weather temp.. now happens 3000 or below :)

Replaced fuel pump and spark plugs... installed a fuel pressure regulator... tried 2 sets of standard coilpacks.. tried aralditing each set of coilpacks to insulate them better...

Car is an R32 gts-t.

Mods are: pod filter, fmic, 3" catback exhaust

For some reason i'm getting 11psi boost (though i haven't been able to use it in a couple months) without any boost controlling device. .. Only other concern i have about the car is the standard oil pressure gauge reads low, but i've heard those are really unreliable.

it did, still traded as speedworks tho

the shop has been shut AFAIK, one of the mechanics was going to run stuff from his home garage, but don't wuote me on it as im not 100% on that..

that would be right dodgey as usual...go to tenagha motosport or kansai garage both are in wangara. hyperdrive or allstar garage in malaga, take a pick :(

    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, much easier to work with it now it's free!
