I second that! Unique Autosport's are great. They managed to quickly diagnose a timing problem when I put my car up on their dyno after I installed an FMIC. They fixed it, and boom lots more power.

John was great too, he came out to have a squiz and a chat. Provided great helpful hints and tips.

They aren't too far away! Castle Hill, it's like 10-15mins from my place :rolleyes:, or about 20 or so from the Windsor road M2 exit if you're coming from far away.

If they are such great guys then why am I still waiting on my credit card to be refunded on an order that they stuffed up over three months ago.

To cut a long story short, I puchased a product but they sent me the wrong one (wasn't for my model). They told me to send it back because they would order the right one. After a month of hearing nothing I contacted them and they said you can no longer get them (which I found out is BS after doing my own invesitgations). They agreed to refund me a month ago but I am still waiting......no money and no response to my emails.

Maybe they are good if you own a skyline and you go there in person, but I could NEVER recommend buying something from them via mail order.

RRR - I think you are feeling the pain of what I call - "Miscommunication when buying car parts remotely"

Unfortunately it happens.

What I do know is that UAS would not try to deliberately rip you off.

I have delt with John and his team for quite a while know and they are all good , honest, import enthusiasts.

What tends to happen is that because they are good at what they do, they are busy. When you get busy other stuff happens that distracts them.

My suggestion to you would be to ring them up and explain the situation - I'm sure you will work it out if you communicate with them and they communicate with you.

Cheers,

According to my last phone conversation the money was going to be refunded. That has not happened. I must have gone back and forth with these guys at least 6-7 times. There is no communication problem, it is just a simple fact that I am just a small customer so they couldn't be bothered giving me proper service.

Being too busy to deal with your customers just doesn't cut it with me I am affraid. If you are too busy then hire more staff.

Anyway, enough said. They have one more week before I will be taking further action.

I would like to know about this one as I certainly know what you are talking about. I can assure you we do not hide, in fact the opposite often happens where customers sometimes take advantage of us. Please call me or email me your phone number so I can sort it out. My staff are very good but also handle many orders and this may have slipped through the cracks. Who did you speak to by the way? What was the product and do you still have it or?

Actually I PM you my mobile number.

Also RRR I can understand your frustraion. Tim has explained bad boy and all sorted.

Even though it was only a gear knob it still should not happen but these days very rare for us and we handle $5 to $6k of tackle and service each day. With this volume and lots of gear knobs etc and orders and it is a masterpeice of co ordination but sometimes the wheels fall off. Our supplier told us could not get this gear knob so maybe it was not right info. Tim is very good but not perfect I certainly am not and this is why I have Tim and Shane. Also need to clarify it was not three months but a bit over 2 months and not so many emails I think two or three and none to me. If you or anyone if you or anyone ever has a prob and not getting sorted ASK for ME. If a company does not do the right thing and not resolved then yes tell others. Especially if the boss says jam it or ignores.

My R33 is going in to UAS for a tune with HKS2835 turbo this Friday.

 

UAS now have the FC logit software for RB25DET Power FCs so I am very keen to see how that goes.

 

Cheers,

The FC software goes very well when used on mine last week :wassup:

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
