Its the OLNY ONE I GOT I AM GONNA FRAME IT BUDDY!!!

So what is wrong with your BOV?

nothing....I just don't like to attract attention, and I have been reading that they actually hinder performance unless you have a highly modified engine

Sup?

Just got back from yet another Venture to Brisbane..

I wanna take back everything I said about Aresspeed, If ound out they wernt at fault .. it turns out it was soem little ****ing shit that works there that was ripping off the business. I belive he owns 'onboost' or something .. he was scared he was going to loose his job and i susesed out he was rippping off Aresspeed.

Oh well such shit if you loose your job kid.. should think twice before attempting to **** around me and the ocmpany you work for.

On the topic of shit businesses.. i have a bone to pic with Gavin woods, I have addressed this problem and he keeps thrrowing excusese at me as if im some dumb****.. let me tell you about it, and look from a nuetral position and tell me what you think...

U booked my car to be seviced by Gavin, he did so and told me he check all the tyres and the headlights bla bla ... 2 days later I find a near flat tyre and one headlight not working, I put the flat tyre down to my rough driving.. and gave him the benefit of the doubt..

I then took the car back about 2 weeks later saying, something is up with my headlight, you said it was fine but 2 days later it wasnt working and i cant figure out why, can you look at it

he then proceeded to charge me when i came back and informs me my hi/low beam needs to be replaced and i should by a brand new one ($200) .. i made sure it was the hi/lo stalk and right or wrong he said hes checked everying its the hi/lo beam .. thats exactly what it is..

I chose to get back to him on buying a brand new part as $200 was a bit rich, and he told me not to goto a wreckes as i need a brand new part, i think came across one of these switches for $50 so i thaught i would try it out to see if it was the hi/lo switch like he said .. i puleld apart my steerign column and installed the new one .. and guess what .. no difference. after a few hours of thinking i decided i couldnt find the problem.

i then decided to check the headlights ..a nd after all this team i discover it was a blown globe.

no my beef is, Gavin is 'apparently' the god of skyline mechanics as you will have all read the thread abotu how good his work shop is.

Yet such a professional guy that knows everythign about skylines gave me false information..

he told me he had checked everythign and the problem was the hi/lo switch .. nothing else THAT was the exact problem...

yet after all that money and shit it turns out it was a simple blown globe.

my question is .. if he is so good, how can he not tell the difference between a perfectly working switch and a blown globe.

got me puzzeled?

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
