didn't get a chance to show my mate that picture but he said @ least nails and or screws should of been put in also

and said dust on the joist before applying glue could cause something like that

The sheets were screwed in place but due to the lack of adhesive down she came. The glue that they applied stuck quite well to the timbers but not so good to the gyp-rock. Maybe like you said "dust on the joists" but more so, dust on the sheets of gyp-rock.

But I'll be contacting them again on Monday. See how I go.

Believe it or not the screw are just there to hold the sheet up while the adhesive is setting. Screws by themselves through gyprock do f**k all....gyprock is quite heavy, paper outer layers and gypson inside isn't really strong. If you want to be guaranteed it wont happen again then get it redone with Fibre Cement sheets or blueboard, alot stronger indeed.

    • Both Coils and Loom are OEM from the dealer.  I have not tried the Chinesium AFM. I Might today. Will get a timing gun to check this, to be honest I been meaning to check the timing because everything timing related is as the car came from Japan, being set by whatever shop did the timing 1.5k miles ago. I believe it is running rich all the time actually, as the pops and bangs feels like unburnt mixture in the exhaust. But I will check the pump and regulator. PS also new OEM fuel filter is in during the maintenance before these slew of misfires started. Cas been placed on the same position as it was before removed, same markings that were left by the shop that did the timing before I bought and imported the car. Thank you all for the responses so far by the way. Seems like I need to pay more attention to CAS condition and timing. Will check on that and report back here.
