Woudn't need an AVO to keep me away from you in fishnets.

you know how to hurt a girl :P

With the cold weather the car does not like to start, well it starts and you have to keep on it for a minute or it will konk out.

warm, no probs. But over took a slow bloke in the 100 zone in 5th and with load and the motor just died/stopped for a split second as you accelerate , drop off and it kick off again. Revs OK in lower gears up to 6000 rpm ish

Busting to have it sorted :(

Do some work Paul :)

What a joke.

If you portray yourself as someone with no knowledge then it seems you get taken advantage of. As per this case.

Not a very good look from a workshop that is/was reputable on here.

Yeah , I have been pissing myself laughing for a few months now, when will it stop , my tummy hurts from laughing :)

I had NO knowledge at all about modifying a car. That is why I used a shop with a pretty good reputation.

But I do not consider myself totally stupid, 2 jobs before were fine,price as quoted and on time.

I put it down to shit happens and it can be fixed, so no probs in the long run :)

You say what a joke,

But it's been the same issue from day dot. No matter how many posts or examples have been given over multiple weeks, its still the one issue, not multiple new problems arising.

Yes you are right, probably my fault bringing it up, but it is difficult when blokes ask what is happening not to vent a little frustration. I think it all goes back from day one and the way the job was handled from the getgo and then it all went tits up after the build was completed.

But it goes in next Monday , so it will be interesting to see how it comes back, these blokes are good mechanics and I believe they will sort it out .

Back to, shit happens :)

Jangles, do you have your build specs anywhere on SAU ?

Nah I've never done one

only because there used to be a zero tolerance on slander

I have no control over what someone else writes . That would mean anyone can go on a thread, crap on some company and the thread gets closed. Edit the post, not close a thread.

I mention what is wrong with my car, but always say I have no problem with my "builder" ( no name) , I say shit happens and they will be fixing the problems,

I never mention anyone's name and purposely do not put shit my on anyone but I can be unhappy about my situation , it is farking frustrating when you spend a shit load of $s and it is not right to drive after 8 months..

Goes in next week and hopefully that will be the end of this, well except I will be finishing the build at some stage and like to post the results

tell them it should be as good as this one, lol https://youtu.be/vfa7dn-N4F4

should do as good as a dirty VL :ph34r:

Yeah , hate to be sitting in the boot if it broke away :)

Someone could do that with my motor now, well after the dump/cat and fuel is upgraded, change the Turbo, cams and a new tune and it would be pretty strong, but maybe not where I want it "/

Off topic here.....so the car goes in next week?

How long will it be in for? I would be looking to get costs back on travel or push for something.

400+ KW on 98 or give it back :P

Yeah Brent/ Joey, next Monday and looking forward to get it back in A1 condition.

400+ I doubt it. I am not getting the new work done yet, I just want the problems fixed ASAP and move on.

As to when when it will be finished, guess it depends if they start straight away or not and if they are willing to give it the attention the job deserves. They should be able to have it done within a week or they are not trying , so time will tell :)

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
