^^^^agree, but he doesnt have to make it public that he doesnt like them as much as some.

a simple different recommendation would have been sufficiant.

Funny thing is, I knew all the Keen brothers and Brett West when they were just kids working for their fathers but I haven't caught up with any of them since getting my GTR so I can't really recommend anyone from personal experience yet........must make a point of catching up with them though.

I can definitely tell you who not to see though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :unsure:

It would be good to post up who not to go to cos we all work hard, we care about our cars, and i dont think no one wants to keep throwing money away for someone else stuffing their car up

P.S Guys if you crash you cars (hopefully not) do notttttt go to SA CRASH very very dodgeyyy careless (a bit out of topic sorry)

:(:):wub:>_<>_<>_<>_<>_< Carefull bud, you're on the verge of slagging someone there (ie. dodgey & careless).....bit different to someone saying they prefer monkeys working on their car than someone else.

prob keep your negative comments to yourself ay?

this is someones business your talking about here.

i use simon, i have not had any probs with him, or the workshop.

if you feel the need to slag off a workshop in this manner, try using PRIVATE message.

LOL - that time of the month again?

All workshops have horror stories and people who wouldn't use them (and most of them can be backed up)

I have used simon without any problems (and hence why i recommended him along with Martin at Willall) but I cant see that the comments were defamatory in the context of this thread.

i say go into the workshop and talk to the guys that run the joint.....if you come out with more confusion then go somewhere else.....but if you come out with all the answers then obiviously they know what they are talking about and if they do a crap job then go somewhere else

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
