I'm sorry to announce the demise of JLM. There has been an internal split.

Over the years, since the two Japanese technicians have gone home, JLM has been thin on the ground with expertise.

There is much angst I'm afraid since the staff split quite a few weeks ago. Both sides have approached me in friendship but I told them that I don't partake in 'domestics'.

Tis sad that we haven't heard the last of this either. And I've moved on...

So over the past decade we've witnessed for one reason or another, the closure of import houses like... Big Boyz Toyz, Tokyo Imports, Powerplay Imports, Nagoya Imports, M&R, All Imports, Northshore Prestige, Xtreme Motorsport, Master Cars, Dream Cars, Bens Imports > Sports Autogroup, JapLink Motors > JLM...

And that's just in Sydney. Protect your appreciating assets kiddies and give them an extra hug tonight!

While I've got some sympathy for any people working there who didn't know about any issues, I'd be more worried about the 73 people who bought illegal cars.

 

What was done and have they all been compensated by the business? Have the cars been made legal somehow?

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.

      Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
