I'm thinking of getting some work done on my car.

I'm buying a garrett GT3040 and need custom intake, and split dump front pipe in stainless steel.

I would like some advice on who can transport the car, and who would be best to do the work.

I was thinking that [since I was going to buy the turbo off him] Slide could do the work - if I'm going to load the car whether I transport it to Sydney or GCoast is a flip of the coin. If I could get the turbo at a similar price elsewhere and then pipework - I'd listen.

I can't drive it anywhere, I've sold my turbo!!!

Another alternative is if somebody is already doing this work and I piggyback and have two systems made. But thats a long shot.

Help needed.

southern NSW is a long way from the gold coast. any money you are saving on the turbo will be well and truly blown on transport, also (and not having a go here) I was also under the impression that Slide wasn't a licenced mechanic? but I could be wrong. something worth checking none the less.

there are plenty of competent sydney workshops. why not get the turbo sent to you, then have it fitted locally somewhere in southern NSW?

as for car transport I've never been 100% happy with any of the people i've used. but search for car carrier in google, or yellow pages and see what you come up with.

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
