My mate on fb today


CENTRELINE SUSPENSION: MY STORY
Just a heads up for anyone here with their pride and joy wanting to go Centreline Suspension, im not the first to be lied to or overcharged by this "premium" suspension company.
I ordered Hard Race camber arms (front and rear) and a wheel alignment.
i got quoted by Typre power North Melbourne at parts + $260 labour
I called Centreline and they explained the difference in their service compared to Tyre Power and always use the excuse "we cant give you a price it depends on whats involved but we are premium and can trust us with your car" ... so i got slugged $520 labour
When i went to pick up the car they said "the front is hardrace, rear is ZZS, same factory" i was a little annoyed at this as a courtesy call would have been nice. I like to keep things uniform and would of been nice to see same brand front and rear.
When i jacked the car up at home i find that the front is SRI and the rear is ZZS, nothing what he mentioned, and charged me prices more than what SRI is, thinking i wasnt going to notice.
I went back to him and explained how you cant just choose what you want for my car if i asked for Hardrace and you havent even called me to ask me if i wanted these brands. More the fact he lied about what he installed and overcharged me.
After arguing, his best resolution was to reinstall my stock arms and not reinburse my $520 on labour. How the f*ck is that any good to me?
Not impressed with the "premium" service they claim themselves to be, ive been overcharged on labour, lied to on parts, and overcharged on parts thinking i wasnt going to check.
Theyve made a name for themselves, and now think they can do what they please.
Just a heads up for anyone needing to get work done to there car

It is becoming more apparent by the day that Labor are simply choosing not to contest this election... will be interesting to see their financials post election and see if they even made it to $100 in campaigning expenses

They are probably keeping him there to ditch after the election rather than burn whoever they have in mind in an election they are likely to lose anyway.

They probably also don't want to inherit the budget in it's present state and further propagate the myth that Labor can't manage a budget.

It's actually probably a better long term strategy to lose thus one

you don't actually think its a myth do you? like seriously its documented concrete evidence factual information that labor are hopeless with the budget.

given the resounding failure of the PUP party i think people may be more likely to shy away from independents..

greens will always be there cos ya know people like ham are allowed to vote..

You know there are political positions other than extremes right?

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
