Hi All,

To cut a long story short, my car has decided to continuously blow the same fuse on multiple occassions of late ( SEE HERE for a more detailed explanation), so I think I need to pay a auto-electrician a visit to try and rectify the problem.

Can anyone recommend a good, trustworthy auto-electrician, preferably in the Parramatta or Hills areas?

(I've done a quick search, but couldn't really find many recommendations).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks :rofl:

the closest one to parramatta that i know of is Annandale Automotive (aka grey imports). Good auto-electrician. 9519 5150, albion st annandale (just off paramatta road near stanmore maccas). tell Nathan I sent you down. wont do anything for you, but it'll make me look like a good friend for plugging his business! lol.

Whoever you go with make sure you know what they are doing. After my car was broken into and needed some work went to one guy who was clueless and did half assed work. Its not like skylines are hugely diff from normal cars but some car elecs are clueless. Wasted 700 at the first guy second guy cost me 800 but did an awesome job and went through the car completely and fixed up a lot of stuff.

Hes out Penrith way if you want his details let me know. I can also tell you who to stay away from out this way.

Thanks for the recommendations - much appreciated.

Richard,

Would you know if Grey Imports are open on Saturday's (unfortunately I don't have an easy way of getting back to work if I drop the car to him during the week). I've only heard good stuff about Nathan, just didn't realise he did auto electrical work as well - so I'd be keen to get him to have a look at it if possible.

Raz0r$harP,

I know exactly what you mean, I've also been screwed around previously which is the main reason why I'm looking for reputable recommendations. If you don't mind, could you please PM me the details of the auto electrician you used? If I can't get to Grey Imports, I should be able to organise to get the car to Penrith as my brother works out that way.

Cheers,

Brenden

nathan is open probably 3 out of 4 saturdays till midday. best to give him a ring and try and figure out a good time to drop off the car. and yes he also does pretty much all auto-electrical work.

    • Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.
    • I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.
    • I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.    
    • I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet
    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
