We had little control over that as we aren't the ones doing the machining.

Myself, working in an industry that subcontracts jobs to other parites, I see this kind of delay all the time. Your business is only as good as your weakest link (so to speak) perhaps it's time to think about what other parties your business associates with and possibly find more reliable ones.

It's sad that it comes to stuff like this, but when a customer is paying for service and not getting it, they get upset.

There's 934893489 shops out there, all of them have bad stories, and all of them have good stories (which far outweigh the bad)

Pro tip: Take every story with a pinch of salt and make up your own mind. :D

... you spend too much time on the internet and get too many different opinions which  makes it hard to then have a clear view of what you wish to achieve.

how can this be a thread without my two cents?!

ken, having dealt with your workshop, I can honestly say that you guys run a top notch organisation and that it's obviously just keyboard warriors who get their periods and don't understand how the world works who then decide to do something stupid like post some ignorant blubberish crap like we've seen at the beginning of this thread. I think Ken's quote above sums it up. Too much time on the internet (probably whinging that Jabba the Hut is the wrong shade of green since the digital edit of Ep5).

if you have a problem with a workshop, resolve it with them, don't try to ruin their reputation.

on an interesting side note, it's not too often people dish out complements, but it's far too regular that they dish out complaints.

Well from ur sig you used to go to SST - so really you didnt set the bar to high. :)

Ken is a champ - I'm not commenting on his shop or their work because i have never used them. My post was my opinion and had nothing to do with Ken.

I only went to SST for dyno comps and Hyperdrive for actual work :)

My comments were based on my opinion of Ken as a person and as the manager of a workshop :)

Don't make me come and slap you Dan ;) hahaha

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
