Xtreme Motorsports' lease is being terminated...

yet the company is still trading; for how long I don't yet know.

No sign of closing or relocation in this; http://www.xtrememotorsports.com.au/

2)

Powerplay Imports Sydney

Shopfront is displaying "For Lease"

Google "powerplayimports sydney" and then click on "Is this accurate?" > a box will appear "Report a problem" with 5 options

So I'd settle affairs with either of the above right now, before it's too late.

I don't know about #1 on that list, but #2, Powerplay Imports have stopped trading some months ago. Anyone who was owed money (and it seems many were) is probably out of luck there.

yeah very curious about Powerplay, they were quite supportive of the scene and even brought a Z-tune GTR over once.

used them a couple of times, nice lady manning the desk but impossible to get on the phone usually, kinda not surprised that ended up where they have.

This is the second time you mention something inaccurate about Extreme motorsports, And no they are not closing down, moving and no their lease is not up.

So the Baptist Church is lying? Well-well, wonders never cease!

Charlie, right or wrong it's always a good idea to give people a good heads up about these kind of things. A simple observation can go a long way for current customers investing their time and hard earned money.

Joanne always knew how to charge for her parts and it was rare to see the shop change much each time you went in there.

I am surprised that any shop in Sydney that doesnt have a huge customer base of drag racers or circuits racers is still around.

LOL... Again we get hammered with nonsense and false bullshit. :rofl2:

We are not getting our lease terminated but I will advise publicly since we have just signed the documents that we have just purchased the property that we are currently located in and the property next door as well. So we will be located at 428 and 430 Parramatta Road. Burwood. Also we will have a big open day once we have settled in.

:cheers: and EVERYONE IS WELCOME to come down. We will advise everyone soon.

So the Baptist Church is lying? Well-well, wonders never cease!

The baptist church owns the massive yard 2 doors up and I am pretty sure thats number 424 and thats between Ginza and us. Thats one big place and I wish they would have sold that to us. :thumbsup:

They actually use it as staff car park every now and again.

Many thanks for complete clarification Joe and to quash misinformation received at my end through a Baptist church of all things!

Sorry for any inconvenience caused as it's good to see high quality cars continuing to come out of dealerships who are willing to take the risk of filling a niche that large commercial operations won't venture into.

We look forward to Matthew Everingham's work at your site too!

You've had lots dealings with them Paul and much more recent than I. I trust your judgement and feedback. It'll be good if they're just relocating. Otherwise, it's a darn waste of a brilliant technician like Alistair!

Powerplay are just closing down their retail shop. They will still have the back garage. Jo still should be taking email enquiries.

+1 (after finally getting a call back from Jo).

They are renovating however, so if you need something urgently... be patient I guess. :/

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
