Hi guys,

just thought i would shear with you my exsperance with a High performance work shop i just used to get some work done to my R31.

shop was RE customs in springvale vic.

i had a manual convertion and dyno tune done. (118.6 rwkw now.)

now all went fine apart from the following points.

car was recived in a very dirty state, had greasy finger prints all over it and even scratched.

indicators in all capacity (inc hazards) are now not working. ray spent 1.5h on the prob with a few of the boys and

couldn't figure it out so its off to the auto elec when i get home.

im not bagging them out im just saying that thier were a few points that required a little look at.

If you are not bagging them and Ray by all accounts has tried to address the problem, why post it up on here? You may not be satisfied but that is an issue you should be raising with R.e not airing on a public forum to people who don't know the full story.

This will no doubt be locked shortly anyway.

The car was booked in for a transmission change over and dyno tune. Your car came to us on a tow truck covered in scratches and not exactly looking the cleanest. RE complete the required work on your vehicle (transmission change over and dyno tune.). Your indicators not working was not something that you booked your vehicle in for nor was it something that was required to be checked over whilst it was with us.

I'm sorry you weren't happy with the service that was provided to you.

This is a public forum so people should be allow to express/voice their concerns, interest.......but i guess to a certain extend. Some choose to not speak out, others want to araise the issues so other members can be aware which i guess is also a good thing.

Its up to you whether you want to believe what Brenton said or not.

So basically your happy with the work done on the car that was requested. The box install and tune. But unhappy that RE didn't wash your car and fix your electrical issues that weren't part of the work?

I think this would have been something to discuss with RE Customs BEFORE posting up on the forums.

Fear Ash's admin powahs........

    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
    • Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up
    • Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.
