Hi there guys and gals,

If you're in need of tyres for your beloved beast please give Charlie a call @ Bob Jane in Belco, he is a close friend of mine and is now the new manager there.

Just tell him that you're from the SkylinesAustralia forums and that I(Brad) sent you.

Cheers,

Brad

As long as they don't scratch my wheels this time.....or take 4 times longer than they quoted......

Hopefully these problems resolved under the new mgmt.

Charlie took over the role of manager the week before last, so I'm sure he'll be pulling his staff into line pretty quickly.....

Is there any kind of discount or "mates rates" involved with this recomendation or is it purely an advertisment?  

I ask because I need new 19 inch rubber and I'm looking for a good price.

Hey there Stevie,

Definately not purely advertisment :-)

PM me to get my mob number when you're ready to go in and I'll give him a buzz and let him know you're coming....

I spoke to him today and he'll said that he'll do his best to look after us.

Being the new manager is hard for him because he's already starting off with a bad rep which he's trying to fix, so I told him that we'd try to support him as best we could..

Hey Brad, do you know if they stock semi-slicks? Alternately anyone selling some second hand?

Hey there Camma,

If you can get size, preffered brand and other relevant details in regards to what you want I can give him a call or alternatively you can call him on 62532642(ask for Charlie), just tell him the I told you to call. If he doesn't have them, he'll definately try and source them for you.

Or you can try Northwest Tyres in Fyshwick for second handies.

Cheers,

Brad

Excellent. Size would be 205 to 225's in 16". Preferred brand not too concerned but would prefer something in Bridgestone RE55's, Dunlop DO2G's or even some Falken Azenis.

Thanks.

Hey there Glenn,

I've just spoken to Charlie and he said that he's got a Falken in stock, and when you get a chance if you can go in and they can fit it up for you to see if you like them.

Otherwise they can probably order in what you're after.

He didn't have a definate price(for the Falkens) but he said it'll probably be a bit over $200

When you go in make sure that you ask for Charlie and tell him that I sent you.

Cheers,

Brad

    • 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.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • 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?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
