im after a good install for a decent price in the Sydney area, anyone reputable around or should i just head down to strathfield audio ect.?

I wouldnt but maybe Chris Rodgers on here or one of the local Sydney people can enlighten you to a better place to go ?

Jim from Sideshow Performance wiring did an awesome job on my old R33.. bit pricey but worth every cent. Had two break-in and i've still had the car.. only had to replace busted ignition barrel.

tony,

since you are out west (and I hope you haev not moved.) go see crankin car audio in condell pak. hakki is quite good at what he does and will have no issue doing what you are asking.

Hi Chris,

I've just recently purchased a 2001 stagea and i'm on the northern beaches of sydney. I've got to get an "approved" immobilizer to be insured for theft under justcars.

I've searched around a bit and got all sorts of conflicting opinions.

I think what i should do is get a mongoose m80g, and get someone in to install it..

But with everybody saying they're the best installer and then hearing all these stories of bad installs, i'm really hesitant. Is the mongoose a good option, and do you have any recommendations for install?

Many many thanks.

Andy

autowatch 446 RLI or 446P.

if you want try to hold off till mid Jan as I'm doing a run down that way and I can do it.

let me know as it will take a day to do properly.

nah I'll do that. I'm a dealer for autowatch anyway. thats the good thing about the brand - its a specialist brand that is not available to everyone on the block.

give me a call on monday.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
