Hi Guys

Just a quick note to let you know that Tein coilovers are now available at Capital Steering Fyshwick 62805243.

The new importer of Tein is Fulcrum Suspension & they are revalving & respringing them to suit Australian conditions. They are bringing in the Super Street coilover which are ride height adjustable & have 16 damper settings. They are also have available to EDFC in car shock adjuster.

Big thumbs up to Johnny at Trojan. Usually go to Integra but it's just too far away from me and hard to organise a lift from.

Got my car serviced today and got everything I wanted looked at and fixed where appropriate for a very very reasonable price and very quickly too. Also got some good advice and some niggling things sorted.

I have nothing but praise for Ben at Intune, currently based out of the Evo Motorsport workshop in Fyshwick. I have been to him about 4 times in the last month and he has been extremely helpful and does such a great job.

Firstly I got a service done by him, changing all oils, all filters, plugs, plus an overall check my car for an awesome price. He mentioned that the coilpacks may need to be changed in the near future, as they were tracking and misfiring when hot.

A couple of days later Ben serviced my master cylinder, again for a very respectable price. That night it started to misfire bad, so I rang Ben and he even organised a tow truck to pick my car up from my house in Gungahlin to tow it to Evo's workshop at no charge. He replaced a few of the worse coils, until I could get new Bosch ones in.

Today I took it to Ben and got six new Bosch coilpacks put in to replace the dodgy RB20 coils. He did an awesome job and I have got a nice little power increase too.

Sorry bout the essay, but am very happy with both his work on my car, but also the advice he happily gives to me whenever I have questions etc.

Don't bother booking yr 'line in to Integra on 25-26th Nov. Ed will be far too busy doing mine!!!!

Finally going to put all those spares I've been accumulating into the Tokyo taxi. [belts, w/pump, Power f/c, cam wheel].

Just had to add another recommendation for the guys at Trojan in Mitchell.... got a major service done yesterday and couldn't be happier! Price quoted didn't change, although belts, wiper blades and globes were done at no charge... really great guys that love thier work! Seriously, don't have second thoughts about taking your 'line to them!!!

    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )
    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
