Should have a petrol resistant foam rubber sleeve and hose clamp/s to mount it. I've not seen ANY shop including autosparkies that wire things up neat. Kindergarten kids could usually do better!!

They usually use the biggest soldering iron they can find, two rolls of dodgey insulation tape per job, have five twist joins in a 500mm length of wire, and crimp all connectors with a hammer or sidecutters.

LOL f*kn hacks!

What they figure is... if you don't see it.. it wont hurt you...

WRONG MUDAf*kRS!!!

They should take a crash course in how to unf**kthemselves.

OK OK, XXX did it. I spose its not bad to say it because i am sharing information that could be useful, as someone said if they cant see it it wont hurt them (the customer) or something along those lines. thats why i was so eager to get back in the tank and see what they really done.

First and last time to go there, wasnt happy with the service from the start.... i made an appointment at 10am and didnt leave until about 2.45.... but i spose workshops can be like that

i payed $120 for the install only... the pump was supplied by myself.

mods if u think this thread is not within guidelines than feel free to edit.

on a good note i got my FMIC installed today, happy with that and the guy who installed it

**edited by mods - please don't mention names**

I have a similar problem last workshop I left my car to gave me the car with

1 dint in the front passenger panel..denied by them.

1 window seal badly notched "drivers side"

1 side skirt chipped"drivers side"

I need to install cams/afms and retune.

I am not giving it back to these guys.

There work was good but are rough as guts on your car.

PM ME IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO THEY ARE IN MELBOURNE.

Probably best course of action if it hasnt been too long would be to sit down and consult with them, and maybe work out some appropriate resolution. but then again its upto how you would proceed in this circumstance. There are many and many dodgey work places, and very few that actually know what the hell they are doing with our cars and even less that will take the time, effort and care with out cars on anything mechanical. Hence why so many people do things themselves. Well one of the many things why anyway.

Noo good even still atleast you got to it sooner than later

it has been over a month since i done it, for the matter of 120 dollars i cant be bothered going back especially since they cant see it while it was installed. they will most porbably make excuses etc etc and highly doubt i will get my money back and i dont think there is anything else they can do for me.. i will just not go back there again

how much diff is the GTR pump over the stock? i would think the GTR would be easier to install than a walbro (aftermarket), I would think the GTR would use the stock mounting brackets etc. pm me the reply with the name of the workshop too. please thanks :)

walbro comes in a kit form and is so easy to install, it has a new hose with clamps, rubber mount down the bottom and pickup filter thing. also has a wiring harness with it. The hardest part is cutting the + and - and crimping/soldering them to the new harness LOL.

GTR pump uses everything the same so u dont need new hoses etc but it is slightly different on the bottom and wont sit in the cradle with the GTST rubber mount so this is where it gets ugly. If u a suitable piece of rubber and half a brain u could make a similar mount but yeah it help to have everything there when ur tank is opened up and u have no car to get bits and pieces lol

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
