Just wanted to say a public thankyou to none other than Chris Rogers :)

I had my Skyline booked in with him today to have some work done after reading everyones recommendations on the forum, and whaddya know - Im travelling down the Gateway and and and... flat tyre. Pulled over, went to get the spare and its a 5 stud instead of a 4 stud. Only had the car 2 weeks, didnt think to check the spare. Der me *insert eye roll*

SO...I ring Chris to say I will be late, whilst mentally figuring out what to do to get back on the road and Chris ( the legend he is, and to my shock ) offers to go to a wrecker and get me a tyre AND brought it to me! I was sitting there thinking "Huh? This guy doesnt even know me!!"

I cannot express how grateful I am for his kindness and generosity. I had only messaged him a few times arranging my work done today, so to do this for a random person, Im just blown away.

Added to that, the perfect job he did of my immobiliser, keyless entry and boot release, to say Im stoked is an understatement. He also did a few other things for me like plug the clock in while the dash was out, the lighter light now works and he also removed a stupid switch that did nothing ( and bugged me LOL ) and replaced it with a cover.

I just cant thankyou enough Chris, what a pleasure to meet you and I hope one day I can return the favour if youre ever stranded down my way !!

Manda :rolleyes:

P.S Thanks to Col-GTSX for your suggestion - I shall be doing just that :blink: I know thats vague but he knows what Im on about LOL

Yes he is a champion, he's the only person who has touched the electrics in my cars for the last, I dunno, 8 or 9 years, and why myself and others will continually recommend his services!

I'm sure he'll appreciate you taking the time to post this up, thankyou's do make a difference :wave:

Can I just add, Chris has been more than helpful to me in the past. He flew out all the way from Brissy to Adelaide to help APS with a complicated alarm install on my car - taking a break from his busy schedule at Adelaide Autosalon. Great bloke all round and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone out there!

Got to agree with this sentiment. Chris has always been willing to help however possible.

really appreaciated and certainly the first person I would refer any business to.

The best business ethics I have ever found. Wish he was in Sydney! But then he would just be corrupted by the Sydney hussle and bussle like all of us.

Cheers and thanks

Andy

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
