well if yu have heap of competition i reckon if yu start out cheap and raise it when yu start getting good buisiness your name will certainly be getting around ...

its the same thing with spray painters aswell but thats jus imo

jon,

ta.

Chris,

they want 18,700 for it and thats probably where it will stay( IE no neg.). I have yet to look inside but it does see some street traffic and its plain enough for me.size is 220m2 if I wanted the lot (and $33k!) or 120m2 if I take the front. routing traffic from the south will be fun but doable. northside stuff and referrals I do not see being an issue.

as fro changes - yep! not a lot of riff raff there now. figured this would be easier than trying to route work to further north and losing it.

we'll see as its all open for discussion currently.

Sara,

been doing this for 21 yrs the last 11 have been here in brisbane. most of these guys know me /my work quite well. do a bit of a search on this site/boostcruising/nissan silvia and quite a few others for the business name. (or toss it into google for australia only.) I also sponsor the Qld skyline club. google by itself should yield a few things.

you get what you pay for chris is worth all the money he charges speciallly us v35 owners wouldnt know where to start without him saying that other audio mobs wont come close to his work..

Chris, have u moved house?

this would be handy to yr place at WH

with the upgrades/development of the airport area, I'm told this will spill over to surrounding areas, incl Nundah - prices will only go up! good luck mate!

this thing is huge!

looked at it today and there is a retail area off to the right side of the door and plenty of room to hold 2-3 cars easily in there.

I can see this working. I'm doing numbers on it now and so far looks good.

nundah is a no go. solar company got it. (I'll wait for the gov't to can the rebate scheme. I want that spot.) so the search continues. brendale anyone ??

    • I think the concept is highlighting the various scenarios where thicker oil helps, and thicker oil potentially doesn't help and only generates heat and costs power, in turn for safety which isn't actually any safer (unless you're going real hot). If anything this does highlight why throwing Castrol 10w-60 for your track days is always a solid, safe bet. 
    • Jason should have shown a real viscosity vs temp chart. All the grades have very little viscosity difference at full operating temperature.
    • Oops... I meant to include the connector  view... BR/W - power from fuse L/W - motor negative to fan control amp (and off to HVAC pin19) OR/B - PWM signal (from HVAC pin20) B --  ground  
    • Yep, if you are applying filler it sounds like there is something wrong with the body lol. Safe to assume there is going to be a lot of sanding going on if your still applying fillers.  Picture a perfect bare metal panel, smooth as glass. You lay down your primer, it's perfect. (why are you going to sand it?) You lay down the colour and clear, it's perfect. No sanding at all took place and you've got a perfectly finished panel.  You won't be chasing your tail, sounds like you were prepping to start laying filler. If your happy with the body after the sanding, there is some bare metal exposed and some areas with primer, no issues at all, start laying the filler. You are safe to lay filler on bare metal or primer (of course check your technical data sheet as usual for what your filler is happy to adhere to).  This isn't a 100% correct statement. There is primer that is happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. There are fillers that are happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. Just make sure you're using the right materials for the job.  Typically if you are using filler, you would go primer, colour and clear. I've never seen any instances before where someone has laid colour over body filler (maybe this happens, but I haven't seen it before). So your plan sounds pretty normal to me. 
    • I don't think there's any way someone is push starting this car.. I honestly can barely move it, and moving it and steering it is just flat out not possible. I'm sure it is, but needs a bigger man than me. I have a refurbished starter now. The starter man was quite clear and consise showing me how nothing inside a starter really should contribute to slow cranking, and turned out that for the most part... my starter was entirely fine. Still, some of the wear items were replaced and luckily it didn't show any signs of getting too hot, being unfit for use, etc. Which is 'good'. I also noticed the starter definitely sounded different, which is a bit odd considering nothing should have really changed there.... Removed and refit, and we'll pretend one of the manifold bolts didn't fully tighten up and is only "pretty" tight. GM only wants 18ft/lb anyway. I also found a way to properly get my analog wideband reading very slightly leaner than the serial wideband. There's Greg related reasons for this. The serial output is the absolute source of truth, but it is a total asshole to actually stay connected and needs a laptop. The analog input does not, and works with standalone datalogging. Previously the analog input read slightly richer, but if I am aiming at 12.7 I do not want one of the widebands to be saying 12.7 when the source of truth is 13.0. Now the source of truth will be 12.65 and the Analog Wideband will read 12.7. So when I tune to 12.7 it'll be ever so slightly safer. While messing with all of this and idling extensively I can confirm my car seems to restart better while hot now. I did add an old Skyline battery cable between the head and the body though, though now I really realise I should have chosen the frame. Maybe that's a future job. The internet would have you believe that this is caused by bad grounds. In finding out where my grounds actually were I found out the engine bay battery post actually goes to the engine, as well as a seperate one (from the post) to the body of the car. So now there's a third one making the Grounding Triangle which is now a thing. I also from extensive idling have this graph. Temperature (°C) Voltage (V) 85 1.59 80 1.74 75 1.94 70 2.1 65 2.33 60 2.56 55 2.78 50 2.98 45 3.23 40 3.51 35 3.75 30 4.00   Plotted it looks like this. Which is actually... pretty linear? I have not actually put the formula into HPTuners. I will have to re-engage brain and/or re-engage the people who wanted more data to magically do it for me. Tune should be good for the 30th!
