Hey guys,

just wondering where Gavin Wood Autotech is...I know it's in Labrador, but I haven't found it when i was over there. He tuned my S-AFC a while back using Craig Dyson's dyno, n I never got the chance to thank him. Wanted to go see him about a number of future mods. I believe his shop is somewhere on captain cook drive, but if someone can point me in the right direction, that would be great.

thanks,

Zak

He's at 1/23 Gibbs Street, Labrador.

It's off Brisbane Road. I normally turn right into Captain Cook Drive and then first left into Kendor Street, follow that up to Gibbs street (turn left into gibbs street... it's just past the boat shed on the right.. I dont think it's signed too well) and he's about half way down that street!

Phone number is 5529 2313.

aaah great! thanks nismogirl...was slightly confused there, but i remember gibbs street somewhere in the area. WIll check it out soon.

I've been hearing alot of good things about gavin as far as tuning and fitting apexi products go.

the price on that fit for warrick sounds very cheap though...but i got an s-afc and a evc3 tuned for 450, not fitted tho

    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
    • What air filter are you running? Is it a panel filter in the stock air box, or a pod filter? Is the air filter the type that is oiled?   If you unplug the IACV, what rpm does the engine idle at?
    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
