I do get all of my work done at PERFORMANCE GARAGE in phillip by danny he knows his cars thats for sure no job too big or too small, servicing to engine conversions.

have to agree, Danny has done a fair bit of work on my 200 and he's always helpful, honest and very competively priced.

Highly recomend: 0437603885

While I'm replacing my Turbo and putting my Clutch & Brake pedal in I decided to do a bit of maintenance work on the old RB25. While pulling the intake piping apart, I've managed to split quite a few hoses both for oil and intake. Who knows a good place to go to get replacement pipes & so on? I know autobarn have some silicon hoses for the intake, but I was thinking more for the oil lines. Otherwise I'll just go to Nissan and get the factory ones.

do you know the address at all? can't seem to find them online or in the yellow pages..

I know I sound like a broken record at times on here - But i can't recommend Marc, Stewie and the boys down at Belconnen Discount Tyre Service enough. Sure my car isn't on time - but they get things done properly and keep me informed all the way.

Seriously.

I'd recommend them for anything upto performance tuning/turbo work - even then, i'd probably give them a go.

I concur, they're doing my gearbox conversion for me. It's a bit of a tricky swap but they're still willing to give it a go. It helps that Marc has a manual Stagea already to compare with.

Thx for the tip about Goodyear tyres in Belco, have taken the car there before, but didn't know they specialised in servicing imports to. Very happy with their other work, so may book in the car to get servicing done, as im on the northside as well.

Well the owner has had 2 Stageas now and also an ATESSA Bluebird. I don't know if they specialise in them, but they're certainly getting to know them.

The boys are starting to know them, quite a few skylines are going through there.

I've been looking for a good deal on Turbos for my GTR, so I called COOMA DIESEL and unfortunately had to talk to a very rude, sarcastic woman who not only wouldn't give me even a $50 discount on 2 X $1,500 turbos, but wouldn't even TELL ME WHAT THE PART WAS!!!! unless I agreed to purchase them. I would definately recommend that everyone on this forum stay away from this place.

If anyone knows where to get a good deal on turbos I would love to know. I'm looking for ones around the 300-350 hp mark.

Sadly over the weekend i put a nice big scratch and took a chunk of paint off my front bar and decided it was time to get it resprayed (paint is crackling at the top of it etc... needs some TLC.) i'm not looking to do the whole car, just the bar. Anyone know of a good place to take it?

whatever your decision is DO NOT go to a place in Fyshwick that starts with N, contains a part of it's name that you put in your hair and is 6 letters long... I only just realised that in certain sunlight the bit's I had re-sprayed didn’t even look black almost a grey :dry:

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
