Hey guys, Wanting to get my car alarm installed, im on the gold coast, i dont really have the time to take the car to a workshop at the moment nor do i really trust them.

there was a user on here that had his own business and that was based in brisbane, i cant remember his name nor any threads he has posted in... but he came out to you...

would like to try and find this user again OR do any of you suggest someone that i can talk to about installing this?

Thanks

CJ

Yeh i was in touch with him last night, looks like ill have to try and take the car up to him though. :D

It's a ball ache but it will be worth it ;) when some ghetto rat tries to take it and fails it will make it all worth it:)

yeh its acually working out alright, big day for the car tho lol.

6am - guy comming to do gaurd rolling

7.45am - wheel alignment and full setup

10am - powertune and connecting up some extra goodies now that iv run the motor in

4pm - over to chris's to stay there the night

lol. problem is im now stuck in brissy without a way home haha

There's this thing called a train, apparently you can catch it and it'll take you from Brisbane to the Gold Coast and other various locations. Crazy I know, exactly what I thought.

haha anyway on a serious note, I was chattin to Chris not long ago and I'd have to do the same thing and drop it up there, can't wait till i finish uni so I can go full time and have enough money! When's the car going up, and how much?

Also how much to get the guards rolled? my fronts need it bad!

well.... he quoted me 400-600 for the install. but the car didnt make it to him tongiht.

My new clutch was slipping so i couldnt even get the car power tuned....

so in my frustration i ordered a new twin plate clutch and bought a new car! :@

wondered what happened today. I gto the phone call mid arvo and folllowed most of it. now it makes more sense.

to those asking for costs : best not to. I work on a car by car basis and as EVLWOG (hi laurie!) will tell you with his I seriously DID NOT FK around with it when I did it.

hehe!!

anyone else will take too long to get into it let alone find things in that car.. see ya late thurs.

thanks for the compliment. (the R33 will be done the same way.)

I realise this thread is a bit old now, but I still wanted to add my 2c.

I just had an alarm installed in my R32 GTST by Chris at Audio Express, I can't express how happy I am with the job done.

Not only did he install my alarm PROPERLY, he also managed to fix the reception on my stereo, ripped out the "baby turbo timer" that came with the car, since the alarm now handles this, tidied up the god-awful install job that was done on my e-Boost 2 controller, removed a bunch of wiring that went to nothing (last owner must have decided to remove whatever it was, but left the switches/wiring behind), he re-used some existing components from a previous alarm after testing them to be sure they worked fine (saving me money) and even tightened up the after market shifter nob that I had been too lazy to fix.

On top of all of that, each time I called him with some random question about the system, etc, he was always happy to provide answers.

So a big +1 to Chris at Audio Express, I can't recommend him highly enough.

    • (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.
    • Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things 
    • Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..
    • I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
