I bought mine in April this year...

The reason i have not put a month figure is because i have only really had it for half that time as its in and out of workshops everywhere getting it ready for next years Jambo...

ATM my car is in a Driftking @ Aspley (has been there for 3 weeks now) NOT HAPPY JAN... I have good things to say about their work... Just that it takes so god damn long... (and he cant stick to a quote the price has risen over 1 grand)

Hey Red Sky II, I registered my Spec II Yesterday. Took me from 7:30 in the morning when they open to 4:20 in the afternoon to get it done, fantastic. I would like to say thank you very &*(@$*&% much to the boyz at east perth licencing. DONT GO THERE if the car has any mods. They ran me around all day because of an aftermarket front bar and round clear front indicators. If its stock then no worries. Good luck

Mine got knocked back yesterday afternoon at Welshpool due to a supposed hairline fracture in the front of the muffler and they wanted some disconnected, non-functioning aftermarket foglamps removed. Gotta try again on Monday now.

Stupid thing is that in the boot or hidden elsewhere were the mods that were removed for compliance and registration (eg turbo timer, Air Flow meter, strut brace, racing pedals, etc, Blitz BOV). What do they think I am going to do with them once registered - leave them in the boot !!!

thats hopeless hey, They didnt even get to the boot of mine.

He cheked everything that they normally do, like suspension etc, lighting , horn, wipers ....etc and then went underneath and looked around, nothing to report there because the car is dead stock except for the front bar, thats it. Then as he was walking in to go do my paperwork he decided maybe he should scrutinise the front bar alittle more.

I hope that they dont give you any more crap. its easier to rock up to a carline muffler centre and just get them to give you a report to say that the muffler etc is fine and not leaking and that should be kewl. it seems to me that it is all about liability. as long as someone else is willing to say it is okay and put their name to it then they are happy with that.

what a bunch of Kn*bs

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
