second that motion col, its an awesome shop.

Brendale has gone crazy, so many new building goin up around that estate, drive through there every morning on my way to work

looking at one inthe same complex as allstar tuning and rotary motorsport. terms are whats killing me on these though.

having to outlay $11K straight up is not easy to do. add to that I want 1+2 and most want 2+1 or 3 yrs solid. this is fun :laugh:

jesus there are some units in brendale. went for a 2 hr cruise last night and found 10 in the space of 30 min. one of which I CAN do if the lease terms are good. its on a major main road as well.. here's hoping.

I'll drop by your shop once you find a spot, I'm getting a GTR, and want to get a laser parking system installed, and possibly audio gear in the future, best of luck finding a place.

TAKE 2!

4/128 Sth Pine Road Brendale (behind JR turk next to solomons carpets across from the truss building factory). its cheaper btw! gave a letter of intent to the agent today.

I know there are a few automotive workshops in the area. I looked at 6 others in the area and those were either tucked off the main road or shells with nothing in them.

I thought this was in a good spot so I went for it.

AND WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!

(the owner of the building took my proposal!! 2yrs + optional year)

stay tuned. I have signage to sort out before I do anything further.

Edited by Chris Rogers

still have to get over the signage hurdle. no point setting this up the way I want if I can't get a sign out front. 90% of business will simply drive past..

but yes its an accomplishment I'm proud of :(

(its taken almost 8 yrs to pull off!)

let me know once your in, would love to swing by with some morning tea + a brewed coffee and catch up

+1 I would be up for that too Col. Congrats Chris it's been a long time coming. Start brainstorming for your opening specials! :(

already working on that. ( it won't be anything too dramatic - still have rent to pay.)

considering having a open day once I get things sorted.

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
