they said they're going to need another day with the car, I asked then if they could give me a progress report on the car, and they told me They've Replaced the Tint on the Rear window, and replace the springs in the front (it was too low at the front). I'm not an expert and I have no idea how busy these guys are, but they've had the car since Midday Tuesday and all they've done is put a layer of tint on the rear window and swap the springs. They told me they are currently working on the tachometer now, but the car won't be ready until end of day tomorrow.

Doesn't look like I'm bringing it to the cruise.

Hi do you guys know what process is to register a interstate vehicle in WA, have any of you done it ? Is it hard ?

I did search registering interstate but only found eastern state stuff.

Think you need to go pits , and get a road worthy Certificate , haven't done it my self tho [emoji28]

Sad. They get pretty busy most days with engine rebuilds, mods and usual services. But pretty annoying they promised two days but took longer.

Being in similar environment, everyone wants to know when it will be ready

Go short and your a flaming mongrel if it blows out.

Go long and you miss out

Best guess is still only a guess

Right, Under promise, Over Deliver, retail 101.

I'm not upset that it's taking a bit longer, I'm disappointed because we discussed a time-frame, and they couldn't keep it, and they didn't ring me to tell me it was going to take longer.

Also, it took more than 24hours, just to apply tint to 1 window, I know they out-source the tint... but it doesn't take 24 hours to tint 1 window.

also, they charge by the hour, so the longer they take, the more I pay.

Ring around on places that tint c what the going rate is this way you know you wont be over charged, also you are paying for something to be done/service if you dont get said service then negotiate

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
