some people really know how to hold a grudge around here huh

Personally, I have no opinion on the quality of their work. From what I hear it is good. But that said, I would not take my car to them. Why? On the two occasions I have had anything to do with them, they have behaved in a manner which makes me not want to deal with them. Is that a grudge? I don't think so. Its just a choice - they are not the kind of people I want touching my car. I know where John is coming from, and I agree with him.

yeh its pretty shit, mines chilled in my garage since september

You get used to it breh . + you will love that day you get it back on the road

I'd rather convert it to a horse drawn cart than take it to EFI.

LOL

isnt that what it already has been converted into?

Harsh, but LOL

[Isola]

EFI bashing is based on???

Word of mouth, their other customers, their 'meet' behaviour, the broken down cars on two meets with EFI stamps all over them, and their general attitude towards dickhead street behaviour. The others (as in people in the thread, not the others from LOST) would know what I mean with the quote "Let's settle this on the M1".

[Isola]

I thought EFI slaggin was over now that Redbum is gone due to his epic fail attempt of taking over the performance car industry ?

I'm not slagging them. I'm simply saying that I'd rather let a blind man work on my car. or someone with palsy...

Yeah grudge probably isn't the right word. It's more of a boycott.

Some of thier clients behaved in an ordinary manner.... the people that actually worked there didnt (this is in the Baskins instance when i was there)

In my personal dealings with them they have been nothing but professional and the job that did on Annas car was absolutely perfect Besided Dan they are by far and away the best workshop i have dealt with!

But like you say thats your choice, differing opinions make the world go round!

[Isola]

you will love that day you get it back on the road

and then he can use his tractor to pull my plow around!

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

forgot christmas party was today and drove to work

Solution: Not going to christmas party, and going home early instead

christmas party will be sh1t anyway, they've gone all tightarse this year

P.S. John, theres a spare RB20 in teh ute if u want to borrow bits for diagnostic purposes.

[Bunta]

speaking of RB20s....any one know of a rb20de lying around somwhere? I need one to fix a cefiro i broke

[Isola]

ahhhh that's right... out of all 15ish cars that were there, only 14 limiter bashed and skidded their way out of there! I forgot! Wonder if that had something to do with that ute not being able to start, let alone skid or hit limiter...

But yes, differing opinions indeed. You, Anna and Dan have been happy with them. But that's not enough to make me trust them. I don't give second chances easily (if at all), so they'd have to cup overtime to get me to even consider it.

Sounds tasty! If it's still acting like a finicky little bitch after I swap the pump over I'll steal the turbo out of it and check that

I let very few people touch my car. Dan @ ERD is in with a chance (based on reccomendations from people I trust), when I eventually get sick of my b*stard noisy lifter

Some dude in the for sales has an rb20e, but it's got rooted injectors i think... can't remember the post exactly, but it should still be there

Have fun with that (it's a c*nt of a job), and you'll have to put it back together for whenever I have to haul it over to Petrie

[Bunta]

I think only one person who actually works EFI was the driver of a car that night....and the 'skids' have been well blown out of proportion especially re the numbers of them.

From the SAU club you can count Warwick, Noel, Big Dave, Chris and a few random others as very happy clients

I know you guys have opinions and i have no interest in changing them but i dont want some one to come along and only see one side of the story

[astrotristan]

sr20 in ceffies ftw!

i know of someone who is taking an sr out of their 180 next weekend

an sr to suit a rebuild..

ill let him know if you are keen

[Bunta]

Dan is very good, especially with that type of mechanical fault, also builds a mean engine!

[Bunta]

its not my ceffie so i want to do as little screwing around as possible! But thanks Tristan.

I have found a RB25DE neo, loom and computer for very cheap but i have no idea what wiring troubles it will throw up, and after 18 months of the headf*ck on Annas car im not that keen to experience it again!

[Bunta]

also tristan if you find yorself needing any parts or a hand getting engines in and out let us know! We are very experienced now ha ha

[Isola]

Have fun with that (it's a c*nt of a job), and you'll have to put it back together for whenever I have to haul it over to Petrie

I can promise it will be put back together.

I cannot promise it will ever work again

Where shall I leave the spare bolts?

+1. Hahaha

Anyway EFI's alright. All these bashing is really over the top. M1? Lets just say its illegal but hey AT LEAST they're doing it on a 4 lane straight road. I believe a lot here has done stuff that are even worse.

Baskin skid? Yes I agree its bad but who knows who was the actual guy who did it? You get people like this all the time.

I think if they're good at doing it and at a good price, I dont see why not. Its not like you're after a sponsorship etc that you wanna have a relationship what blah blah blah workshop (like SOMEBUM used to tell me). Just bring it to someone good and problem solved. If you've rather dick around waste money looking for someone who MAY fix the problem because of pride and ego, by all means but I'd rather spend the money doing some decent mods.
