Yes Jennay ( aka Mike ).

We can fit the stock springs Saturday and ring us Thursday if you want it done.

We can even have a quick look for your fuel smell thing .

back around end of feb

i was just looking for jeff's gtsr haha, so if i find one, ill bring one back. But its pretty hard here, the only performance parts available are evo parts

Yea , Glenn got back from doing some tuning in KL recently and said the majority was evo look alikes or 2wd ones converted to 4wd using wrecked evo's.

Did say there was the odd GTR around though.

Also said he sweated buckets and hated the squat overs with the hose... :thumbdwn:

KL is a bit different from my city which is Kuching, its alot more damp here so its not so bad.

my mechanic quoted be 6000 malaysian money for halfcut and installation for a mitsubishi turbo engine swap so its pretty normal to do that.My colt weighs around 1100kg so it would be a rocket heh heh.

4wd eh, havent tought of that haha.

ken, can you requirment a good place to get an alarm system from and install...?

I was thinking about getting a Viper system (it has built in TT which is helpfuly and also a pager)

You also missed the post where I said we have one of the best alarm installers in Perth on tap.

Used to work for action alarms and did all the Subaru STI factory fit keypad alarms and has also done quite a few high end sound system installs.

Tell us the model numbers and will get a quote.

btw , alarms don't have turbo timers...

Cheers

umm viper alarm system has built in TT,

Ken is it possable 2 get a keypad system like the ones in a STI install onto a skyline?

Ken, im not sure if this is the model number but this is wat it is called

Clifford AvantGuard 5 (that is one i was looking at)

    • 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.
