Hi all,

I installed my own mechanical center over a year ago and it has shitted me ever since with whining and backlash.

Seeing as the car is now permanently off the road and i have a waiting nugget requiring a transplant i figure i should get it done properly.

so who's had one done, by whom, and what am i looking at price wise?

I don't have a heap of time with work atm and i am based south of campbelltown for work so trips much further north than liverpool are a bit of a stretch, maybe as far as homebush if i can slip it in on a visit to the office.

thanks,

Dave

Had mine installed by Bosnjaks Engineering, David is the diff guy.

8 Blackfriar Pl Wetherill Park NSW 2164

ph: (02) 9757 2133

These guys set up cars for motorsport and really know their stuff. They preload the diff based on the torque of your car.

They are busy and I had to wait 6 weeks for them to fit me in, the install cost $900 - it was all worth it!

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
