Excellent, parts are on there way...

$100 frieght is pretty cheap for big items i think!! Bonus!

and basically if i have air turned on so it shoots at the feet - its fine

if i have the air shooting at the face and feet - its fine

however if i have the air shooting just at the face it makes a clicking noise?

whats the deal there?

There is a vent in the heater box.. which is below the entire dash. Have a look at my "how to pull entire dash apart" and "how to replace heater core" to see how to fix it and how it all works. Your actuator for the vent down the bottom inside the box is broken. Thats what the clicking is. I got them off my old box if you like sitting around - $30 and yours.

Zoix: same problem.. just replace the little black actuator (motor) adn you're fine.. its just getting to the bitch which is the problem..

Hey Matty.. you got a place lined up for your paintwork? Do they want to do a skyline group discount?? I want mine done in next 2-3 weeks.

[predator]

oh mindflux: you got a 32.. scratch what i said..but sounds like same problem.

I just need to pick up my 400R skirts (next few days), then its ready to go to a paint shop.

[SmoothLine]

[SmoothLine]

[predator]

[MJ]

Hey look another new page

[Ska]

New page? where? where?

Well I just peddled my a$$ to GE finance and got $2k more to play with to get the car fixed. Talked to Gav's and he said be very very wary of buying secondhand lower control arms because the brushes are usually stuffed, but new ones he said cost ~$400 from Japan. But I also know Gav does not like to do things half assed, and likes to have everything done properly with good parts, but I dunno, I'd rather have it fixed at gav's but know it will cost a huge amount of mula, but I will have the piece of mind that it is done right.

Plus the bit that comes out of the rack, (tie rod I think??) is bent to the buggery and dont know if the castor rod is bent either, also there is a bit that i am sure looks bent, little thingy bobby, (gotta love my technical talk, hope you get the idea that i really dont know what i am talking about )

So here is the delma, do I:

1. Try to go the cheap option, try to get all the parts i _think_ are broken and replace them using the time generously offered by other SAU members, or

2. Take is to Gav's have him replace everything that is broke, plus everything that probably doesnt need immediate replacing, but will in the near future?

What would you do?

[NismoGirl]

Uhm... How much is it going to cost to replace all the parts that were broken if Gav does it? Including labour and parts costs?

Against, how much it's going to cost you in beer and bbq sausages and bread to feed the sau people that come to help

[strutto]

I think if the steering is busted it might be best to get someone with some experience to do the work....

[Ska]

Yeah but what happens if we missed something that needs fixing and it ends up breaking and having to go to gav's because i didnt take it there in the first place?

Might just take it there, I'd rather know she's all good rather than wondering if we missed something, or who knows.

[strutto]

Should we maybe go Here and talk all this crap?

I think your right Erin...

[Ska]

Just need to get it there, so anyone have a car trailer handy?

[NA_R33]

hey mate did u end up finding nething else wrong with it?? mechanics charge an arm and a leg for ne kind of repairs, my offer is still open if u have someway of getting it there?

[NismoGirl]

I suppose the good thing about gavin is he also knows about suspension parts and the like. So you won't be taking it to a mechanic that just "thinks" he knows what he's doing.

he's told me numerous times that if there's anything with suspension that needs doing to take it to him.
