Hi people, I would like to get some feedback from Brisbane locals on wether it's a good idea to open up a wrecking business in Coopers Plains or anywhere else in Brisbane for that matter.

I will be specialising in Japanese spares (GTR/GTiR/GTS) / Lexus parts (IS200/LS400).

I get told mostly that Brisbane is a very slow city, but I have faith in it, I'm from Sydney but fell in love with Brisbane when I visited it for the 20th time.

Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Zak

sir31.... as a qualified auto elec and a nice person myself... I will NEVER go to all jap again in my life. They made me want to sell my old car and buy an aussie car. I was very upset with the service and threats they said. I will never promote or even think of mentioning their name to anyone.

They looked at meas a little fish who could not affect their business by taking them to court. So ill make it my purpose in life to bag the crap out of them and tell people not to go there. As i am no longer in this industry they cant touch me for bagging them out to others.

I now drive to Cresta on the southside for all my part needs. As as least these guys treat their customers with respect. Thats all i want, parts and if something goes wrong they will offer another one or an exchange or refund. Not a parts they sell are FIRM sale type system.

The fact that the guy took cash and didnt give me a recipt is dodgy. TAX MAN...... OVER HERE...

Then i take it back that afternoon to the same guy.,... "Ive never seen you before in my life"

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      By Hendasto · Posted

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!

      Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.

      https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
