Actually, I would like to point out that I have only ever blamed the guy who installed the alarm in my car (useless prick), and to a very limited degree Phantom Motors/Jack for a few dodgy things on roadworthy and going against what I was told originally. I have no problems with any of the work Tas did on my car or the help he has given me.

Not trying to turn this into a pissing contest, but as my name was mentioned I just wanted to clear that up from my end bro :D

Also... did Adam ever get any work done there apart from a minor service?

So shouldnt you be rushing back to him to do some more work?? as apposed to hitting up Marto/Dan for help??

I'm leaving this issue before it turns into a shit fight.

also - as for Adam, I just know he too went elsewhere - I havn't kept in touch with him.

disclaimer:

I know I am dealing with John here - so I know that regardless of what I've said, I know I'll get some smart remark/pay out/thats waht she said/excuse/blah blah blah - but I dont really care.

how would 18*7.5 +38 fill my front guards? better or worse than present?

and the rears that im looking at would be 18*9.5 +38. Some staggered as wheels but, meh.

A penny for your thoughts?

F off. Im broke! =P

dont be a clown - they all bullshit sizes

take tristan's advice;

fronts: 19*9.5 +2, 255/30

rears: 19*10.5 -7, 275/30

Well since my name was mentioned here is my two cents,

I wasn't happy originally with the service Tas did on my car but after talking to him about it and the follow up service I received I was happy. I was also happy with the repair to my accelerator as well. I wasn't happy with the avcr simply because the intermitent noise I was hearing was faulsly reported as a bearing in the turbo due to over boost. It wasn't it is the throw out bearing in the gearbox. I adressed this with Tas. I accepted part responsibility and we moved on. Personally I think that Tas has done his best and my hat is off to him for going out on a limb and trying to start a business.

I ask him for advice about certain things and if he did have a shop I would take my car back there.

The End.

Lets build a bridge and move on.

John : apologies for the other week. Was a bit of a head f_ck on the weekend as my son (who I haven't seen in 7 years) was at my mums. So you'll forgive me if I was a bit out of form and not contactable for a while.

Martin : Presently I do not think I will be there on thursday. I will endeavour to get your parts to you somehow... possibly by swallow.

Does anyone know the airspeed of a un-burdened swallow ?

Tony I have some wheels sitting at my place that are my mates from Melb. Been at my place for a while.......... 12 months to be exact. Pretty sure he's happy for me to sell them. 17 x 8 and 17 x 9 with + 35 offsets. Have tyres too. Feel free to come and try them on.

So shouldnt you be rushing back to him to do some more work?? as apposed to hitting up Marto/Dan for help??

I'm leaving this issue before it turns into a shit fight.

Like I said man, not turning it into a fight or anything. I just wanted to speak up as my name was mentioned. Tas was actually busy dealing with his own cars when I was wanting more work done on my car, and Dan and Martin offered to help me. I'm on the fence for the whole thing and staying objective and have no problem staying friends with both parties who've done no wrong by me.

Phantom Motors however, can eat a dick.

I actually didn't think my other post sounded all that confrontational :whistling:

Those wheel doesnt look like GTC Tristan. GTC has fatter spokes. Anyway you going drifting next Friday? I'll probably come have a look if you are.

John: Hahaha... I havent been there for ages. Just thought of going there and get a couple of shots for the car. Afterall, I dont have a good camera nor is my camera skill any good.

Colin: You running pod filters?

See if you can coax the GABNR out of hiding. It'd save you getting aids from Harry's.

Can you afford those? I sure as hell know I cant.... how can Tony-I-has-no-job afford such luxuries?

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
