I trust

LeMans Automotive

in Templestowe, Shane does a great job.

He does all Mechanical, electrical and even new tyre fittings / wheel alignments.

Plus I gota family friend at TGS Performance but I take it to his place cuz his workshop is a bit far out.

Shame you don't know the full story, there is always two sides to every story.

- The "rebuilt engine" was purchased off e-bay.

- EAS were only paid to remove, and fit the other engine.

- They came across ALOT of issues with the engine.

- Fixed some, but customer did not have the money for them to strip the head completely and see what was going on.

- Upon pick-up, last night before Xmas closure (myself and a few other customers had already started the Xmas party), the customer was warned his "rebuilt" engine was not running right and should be looked at ASAP.

- He obviously didn't listen, and decided to boot it.

How is a w/shop responsible for another persons fark up?

If EAS was only paid to install a dodgey engine, why should EAS bare the cost of rebuilding the head, when they had nothing to do with the build?

The person was warned (i was there) and he obviously didn't listen.

service my own car.. as i am a mechanic.. i fix my own things.. whateva i cant do i send to CREATD.. cant speak highly enough of them.. Handling, the car goes to Centreline.. Very good setups and workmanship.

I know how alot of mechanics and workshops are.. know the ins and outs.. so the only people i would really trust is the guys at CREATD..

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
