No body take any notice to kellie's post. ( no offence mate)

Steve is a very trustworthy mechanic, so is Nick and benny just rocks my jocks off.

for those playing at home Smooth garage is becoming one of the most busiest workshops in the Adelaide Area.

For a place that has only been onpen for not near a full Yr they are becoming a very well known workshop.

They have worked on my R32 sedan when i had that and have worked on alot of very well known cars in SA.

Do not assume anything untill you meet the owners and get your own opinion of there workmanship.

I foot know if you were with SAU last christmas but we had a massive cruise about 30 cars and all he wanted to do was play with my phone but he is one year older now and on his L's so hopefully cars will interest him more than guilds and WOW

Kellie your a friend of mine, just keep your opinion to yourself because no one else is complaining doesnt mean you have to :D

Why is it you're only allowed to say good things about any particular workshop, but you can't give negative feedback? I for one would like to be warned on where not to take my car. Rather than find out the hard way.

Its as if workshops in Adelaide are a protected species :down:

Yeah i was talking about else, but spoke to Kellie and figured it all out!

WOW 2 AND A HALF HOURS TO GO PEOPLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

woooooo 2 more HOURS but the weather seem to be raining abit

Hey Kien I'm Tom, the guy that was in the passenger seat of the black 34 taking a few photos. Cruise was a bit of a flop hey. Everyone was too busy doing stupid crap at Smooth, was funny as though.

Did you see them tie that mattress to the Lancer as we left :D

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
