Hey Sinista32, I got the first half of my order this week & the 2nd half is on its way, which I have a tracking number for, so all should be fine with your order hopefully.

Its a shame that a company with a good reputation cant spend the time to communicate to its buyers so they can keep there good reputation.

Are you for serial?

I can only assume your new to this whole thing... a few weeks is nothing to wait for import parts.

The boys do an amazing job of servicing our niche. Imagine the sheer volume of calls and emails on a daily basis, its not reasonable to think they will actively track every aspect of every order, for each customer, every time they call/email.

Yes, I have had my own small business as well...

My experience has been nothing but exceptional service, timely communication, great prices and flexibility from Kudos.

EARTH TO XRATED

You are a typical keyboard warrior

Were you not taught to not ASS_ume anything

I wasnt expecting Kudos to track every aspect of my order (perhaps you are uneducated & cant read whats typed in a post)

All i wanted to know was Kudos still in business (hard to get money back when a business goes belly up)

FACTS:

My order was placed & payed for on 19th June (items were instock & would be shipped out within a few days, so i was told)

My 1st post asking about Kudos was on 9th July (its not a crime to be worried about money i have paid & goods not received)

I never bagged Kudos & i will BUY FROM THEM AGAIN.

If you had half a brain you could workout my order took 21 days to be shipped out from Kudos, thats clearly not a few days.

Hey Justin, perhaps you should lay off the porn & stop tugging yourself & then maybe you might grow a brain again.

FYI: I have dealt with automotive vendors from numerous countries (so i guess i must be new at this) & 95% of the time,

my orders have landed on my doorstep in less than 2weeks (now thats only 14 days, from overseas) not items instock in Australia.

Seeing how you think you know so much about me & are happy to bash me in writting,

if you are ever in South oz PM me If you want to catch up for a chat to see for yourself what i am really like.

Regards

Mark

Yes mate I am. and I'm still concerned. I received one PM 3 weeks ago that said he would contact me on the Monday. Still no contact.

I've had exceptional Service from Andrew and Ian at Kudos in the past. Could not fault it. Best in the business.

However my last purchase a new Genuine Nissan OEM PTU (Ignitor) which I waited very patiently for 6 or so weeks was faulty. In fact it doesn't work at all :(

At a cost of $560 delivered it's not something you usually let slide. I was certain the guys would remedy very quickly. To date no response.

A few hundred dollars and I wouldn't blink twice. Just put it down to bad luck.

I understand the guys were OS for a while in June and in addition their phone system had been on the blink. Stuff happens.

I'm patient, courteous and laid back. Until pushed hard.

But 5+ emails, 3 voice mails and 2 PMs without response.

All up I am just really disappointed after having been a great customer and very strong supporter of Kudos.

I keep hoping there is a good reason and continue to give the benefit of the doubt.

Yes its definitely the PTU. Put a 2nd hand one in my GTR fires up, new one doesn't, and put the old one back in and Vroom.

Sorry to hear this Sinista32, i was under the impression all was sorted out for you.

I too bought the same IGNITOR, i better hurry up & install it to see if its good or faulty.

Hope you got my PM.

Please keep us updated on your saga.

Fingers crossed it all works out for you.

    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
    • OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:
    • Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).
    • And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.
    • Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
