I dont do air con "fixing" but whatever parts you need I can get pretty cheap.

If you need to go to someone who does aircon, I would recommend Tuggeranong Auto Electrics, the guys there are really cluey and good with Jap cars... If hes there you should try to speak to Stuart. :D

Oh, I would need to know exactly what the pipe looks like and what side it is on the air con system, then I would need to know what kind of fittings it has on either end (beadlocks, o'ring, pad or flange) then once you had the new pipe on it would need to be regassed anyway, and if its not R134a gas then its R12 gas and will have to be changed so you might need a new reciever drier aswell.... Complicated enough for you?

Heh heh :D Sorry I just like to prove how car smart I am sometimes... If you go to Tuggeraning Auto Elec they'll know exactly what pipe you need, then they'll call me and order it... So ill be getting it that way anyway :(

Well, its been nice being able to log on here all day recently but I wont be able to from tomorrow as the user of this computer will be returning to work and I will be forced to use the other computer again (which has no internet) so I will only be checking in after work... Just thought Id let you know :D

I thought so, I see your car everytime I go round to rinse off my car ( I park under a tree at work)...

I havent seen you do anything stupid yet :)

I work at Ingrams on Townsville street, pretty much straight across from the post office.

Yeah mate i've had this problem. what happens is the button has a hinge that attaches it from the top allowing it to be pressed in. this has broken. oyu just need to either glue it back together, or what i did, was glue a bit of plastic behind it to stop it rotating. if you pull it off you'll see what i mean.

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
