phone LCD screen replacements

anyone know who/where does this and can be trusted ?

I have 2 HTC Mobile phones where I have cracked the screen

These are worth $450 and $650 bucks so I'd like to see if I can repair them

all help appreciated :)

I've done it before on HTC depends which model it is I can probably do it for you. Sometimes you have to get the LCD plus the digitizer because it's nearly impossible to seperate them.

You can try the phone shop vendors in tuggers mall or Woden infront of Vodafone

Soda blasting was used on my GTR bonnet. Very gently but still managed to rip a whole in the alloy bonnet.

I think in the hands of an experienced operator it has it's benefits.

I expect rubber and sills need to be covered correctly or avoided.

Ive always done my cars prep by hand. The whole lot. Takes a long time but you get better results. Hope damage was not too bad Mik.

The rubbers can be fixed, they are old and hard and can be sanded back, maybe thats why the soda did that.

The plastic bit in the back window seal is fked anyway, i might cut it out and do a bead of sealant in the gap.

So in hindsight, you can sand just as close or closer than you can blast, and blasting lifts the rubber and leaves crud under there.

Im glad i only did a couple of spots, ill have to clean behind the rubber to get it sitting flush again.

Its good for getting paint out of the tight corners, and probly good for cleaning small metal parts

Its not working properly, the guy sent a bag of the wrong soda, so it clogs up. It works with constant shaking, but thats kinda hard to do while your trying to use it.

I cant get blasting soda in canberra that i know of, and the car will be primed before the right stuff turns up....... :/

Maybe ill do the old wheels or something.

Caught up with a few mates and went for a quick cruise - they met up with the Braddon guys... left there not wanting to be around kidz doing fatty skiddiez. So went up to Mt Ansilie and chatted about Initial D with a m8 who tagged along then went home. So good taking Rosie out for a long nip :)

Spotted a R33 GTR and a white R34 GTT and about 50 SS's haha

    • Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?
    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
    • You have no idea how many goddamn boxes I received these past three months haha Most have been put to use by now though, luckily
    • Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
