lol mw.

Something to say Eddie?

OT: MW Performance is great. Quality work, well priced, is legit, registered with MTQ, isn't dodgy and shadily run with stolen parts. He doesn't sleep in his shed. Doesn't promise to do work then bail on people when the jobs half done/too hard (not saying other real workshops would do this, just an example)

Always had work done there, Car has never missed a beat. made 330hp all day every day for 2 years, built motor, turbo stuff done, 5 stud stuff, cage, everything.

Marty is meticulous with the work he does.

Mate there are other people on the coast who know cars. you just have to know them. i knew marty also, he was good at what he does. but saying that, garage redzone is as good also, and am auto are too if you really want to go all the way to noosa. if you can do stuff yourself thats fine. but the reason people are looking for a mechanic is that fact they dont have the skills or the tools to do it, also a time thing where a mechanic can do it in a day or so might take some people 3 weeks, and some cant afford to have there cars off the road for that long.

So all you have to do is talk to these people and check out there work. im sure you will find them more then helpful in these areas.

places not to touch are kawana auto service and Totally Imports. I used to work at Toatall Imports, and the owner is very dodgey in what he gets us to do. Craig at Toruqe and Tune is very good , and so is browns performance in nambour with small things. Don't take anything to top cog. if anything take it down to brisbane to mark at godzilla motorsport or top rpm highly rated workshops with proven background, and stay away from mercury motorsport.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
