No call from c-red so no info yet. Asked if i coyld be there for the dyno run but the guys said sorry :(. Mate of mine said usually reason they dont like people there watching as usually have issues or probs and they just wana get the job done, which is understandable

Some other mechanics do the same. Sometimes I wonder if they don't want people around cause they aren't actually doing anything :glare:

Customers become a liability standing around, if something were to happen they'd get in trouble.

And also customers get in the way, ask a million questions, pull you away from the job etc. Happens a lot here and then they get all shitty cos the job has overrun

Nothing against customers wanting info on their cars, i don't mind it at all. Just makes progress on the cars slow

Totally get that, would rather them tell me that than making an excuse of space and noise and not safe >.> I used to ask customers to go away when I was working at the workshop.

And just like that i jinxed myself. Customer came in guns blazing because we have gone over time

Push the car onto the street and tell him to GTFO!

Fkn MA61 Poopra giving me dramas. Customer supplied brake pads - WRONG! So I ordered some from Veales - WRONG! Ugh, can't take a trick.

In my defence though, the customer supplied EBC pads and I looked at their online catalogue and his part numbers weren't even similar to what was listed. I triple checked my Bendix part with Veales, but nope it was wrong when it got here.

Honestly bro only 18 bucks for 4 stickers, support trev who went thru the effort of making said stickers. Now im not saying your being cheap but dude your being cheap ;)

(I just feel that trev will offer his fyp in this)

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
