so when you know a car is going to be stuck a hoist for a few days, instead of rolling it off you just cancel all your other jobs and say can't do your job mate theres a car on the hoist :/

For me it's hard push a car out as i have very little room to stash a car outside. With the one stuck on there last week as the box and half the front of the car was off it would have been a pain to push around anyways. The job i pushed back was a clutch for a guy who was happy to wait the extra couple of days cos i gave him the notice.

I try and not do jobs that take ages to do, g/box building wise i try and stick to manuals as they are easier than autos. Same as diffs they are nice and easy. Anything major i try and stay away from unless the customer is happy waiting the month wait. As i only do the mechanical stuff on the side of my other full-timeish job i tend to stick away from anything major and only do day stuff or g/box diff work

Hi All,

In response to the original post I went down to Xspeed today to discuss the situation today with Hanson. Hanson was extremely forthcoming and showed me evidence of all the invoices in regard to the goods purchased, and then sent to the UK as was requested. So it certainly appears that Xspeed held up to all there side of the agreement.

This is not to say that the OP is incorrect in saying he hasn't recieved his goods, but they certainly the goods were sent a long time ago. I believe that there may be some misunderstanding here which is best resolved between the OP and the workshop, and not on an open forum where alegations may have negative impact.

If the OP has any issues with getting correspondance to the workshop then please feel free to CC me at [email protected] and I will ensure that the workshop responds.

Regards

Paul

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
