Cold calling isn't bad as long as you have a premise for doing it, here is an example of a cold call that I have done. I heard from a customer in Umart that St Hildas was going to put a tender out for businesses to supply computer hardware for the school, so knowing that premise I rang the admin part of the school and found out the who the person was who was in charge of the tender process. I then rang that person and had a quick chat, made an appointment to see him to see what it was they were looking for and how I could be the one who could provide what he was looking for. It isn't that bad when it is like that, because generally they want to take the easiest route to solving their problem.

Someone plonking a phone book down in front of you and saying start with "A. Aaronson" and try to sell something to someone who has no need for your product is the lowest form of sales and is why sales people have a bad name.

I used to generally get roof restoration mobs... or vacumm sales or carpet cleaning.....

Its always when i sit down for dinner too.... I hate that....

But my phone never rings as my gf works for the goverment and we now have a protected number... (not silent... protected)

Having a partner that works in a silent part of the goverment is great cause you get lots of perks. We are on a Pri 1 when ringing 000, so if my car were to be stolen they would be here in minutes.... Or..... if an axe murderer were beating down my door they would be here in seconds.... GOTTALOVEIT....

My old dogs got put down due to a house to house salesman...

I had a sign on the gate.... Beware of dangerous dog....

One dog bit him.... he kicked it and it was all on.... Council took them away... Legally i had no rights... Cause they said it could have been the elecrticity guy or it could have been the police or it could have been a child.... Well ill tell you rust never bit someone unless they provoked him first....

I hate door to door salesman....

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
