Looks like I'll be getting my car back Monday. None too worried tho. Prettysure I put a spanner in the works, and threw their workload off balance for the week. -- Re: Mechanics being dirty etc... Um, thats kind of a given. Don't expect everywhere to be a Mercedes dealer I guess Kat makes good points too. Constructive critisism is always good tho, I tend to just bag on shit I don't like. Most of the time, if you go to a tuner with good staff, who are good people, there is a relative amount of respect for you and your belongings (with practicality put in place, people make mistakes)

R33 Series 1 Floormats (full Set)
Sonuku replied to Al-R33's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
My guess would be around $25 standard aus post. -
So! Went down to Autotech on Wednesday to get a Power FC + Boost Controller installed, and get it run on the dyno. Due to certain family situations, Ed was unable to get it done by 5:30 that night, but said he would get it done. So I got a lift down to Hume after work, and waited around till about 6pm. I'm not going to go into details about his situation, but basically he sacrificed family time to help me out, so I could get home that night. (I live in Hall, and the 6 hour walk home wasn't a nice prospect) So we're sitting in the car, doing the dyno tune... Notice that the clutch is acting odd. Slipping a little then regripping... After a bit of tuning, we up the boost to 12psi, and the engine starts detonating. Turns out the spark plugs installed by Fast and Furious were gapped at 1.1.... fail. So we re-gap to 0.8, and give it another try. Engine ramps up, then *sniff sniff* clutch melts. By this time, its 8pm. Long story short. Ed drives me to his house, gives me the keys to his car, and I'm now driving around a tiny red Alpha Romeo until Friday/Monday when the new clutch gets put in. I have nothing but good things to say about what happened that night. I semi expected the clutch to give, and well, Ed is a bloody champ. Extreamly, uh, comforted that my car is in good hands. If you ever get the chance to meet ed at Autotune, you'll know what I'm talking about. A really nice guy. Very knowledgeable about everything he does. Looking forward to getting my GTS-T back! -Alistair

Sonuku replied to a20089's topic in Australian Capital Territory

Where to get Skyline Serviced
Sonuku replied to r33skylinegtst's topic in Australian Capital Territory
I'm still a bit 50/50 with Parvis at Fast and Furious. He's done me some favours, but I always get the "and i had to do this and this and this", and simple tasks like installing an exhaust cost me $280. He's a nice old guy, and I'm prettysure hes honest, but I just cant help but feel shafted sometimes. I'll keep going to him for general servicing, because its close to work, but I think I'm in love with autotech now. -
Keep seeing a grey R33 at Gunghalin car wash Good to know someone out there is as mad as me, washing their car at 7pm in -1°c.
