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

    • 4 to 5 is fine. It will be slow, but that's better than blowing turbos. I don't have a PS pump idle up solenoid on my car, because... I think when we put the Neo in we retained my R32 lines. But.... From inspecton of the R34 vacuum hose diagram, you can see that the solenoid needs to be connected to the turbo inlet as source of clean air) and the plenum (as source of vacuum - which is the place for the air to flow to to cause the idle to increase). So 3 to 1 is VERY WRONG. 3 should go to either the turbo inlet, or the plenum. Follow the other hose from the PS solenoid and if it goes to the plenum, then your 3 goes to 2 2 would also serve as a bleed port for a boost solenoid.
    • Pull them out and pull more apart. You can't do shit with them still bolted to the floor of the car.
    • Yes it is. ZD1 is on the other side of the board. Where ZD1 is marked is clearly opposite a 2 pin device. Our 3 pin device here is not a ZD.
    • Alright, a little update on this... I called Fulcrum, who used to be the distributor in Australia. No Bueno, they don't service them anymore.  Called shock works, who don't service them but offered to dyno the shocks for performance, and suggested DNA in Sydney might service them.  Called DNA, who also do not service them and basically said they try to steer customers away from tein for this exact reason these days- there is just no support for them anymore apparently.  Both SW and DNA said they are a not necessarily a bad product, but they just don't service the brand or know anyone who does service the brand anymore.  So... I could keep calling around but at this point I think I'll probably just spring for the shockworks product, unless anyone here knows anything.  Cheers 🍻 
    • That's not a transistor --- it's marked ZD1 which makes it a zener diode. As to what the breakdown voltage is, not enough there to divine.
