Sorry, cant beat their deal, but since im the one who decides what goes on special I can try to stick some more automotive kits in there for everyones benefit :D

Thats the AF meter, works quite well, alot better than the old one which was just a bar graph that went nuts all the time. This one actually gives you a readout.

The Voltmeter, Ammeter, Thermometer, Turbo Timer and Battery Protector ARE however on special :D

Ive been trying to get work to remake the kits into a guage style thing, something thats mountable into a round hole, but they seem to think customers wont think its worth the extra cost.

Yeah Jaycar has better audio gear. Altronics retail is a small part of the overall operation tho, its mostly wholesale. Jaycar dont do professional public address systems, we do.

We dont supply much to Jaycar, they source all of their own stuff. Only time they buy off us is when they run out of stock of a common part that we also stock. Their catalogue is alot bigger, but then again Altronics doesnt stock heaps of tacky stuff nobody wants.

We pride ourselves on nerdy retail staff. Luckily i work upstairs and as such am not counted as a nerd :D

hmm almost sparked up a price war

umm yeah you know me zanda, eloquence is the key to business and a few favours here and there (**taps nose**)

nah seriously the deals get good when we decide to group buy stuff

like say for example SOUND DEADening LOL

they have that "brown bread" deadener which is pretty good and their amps are really worth the money no BOSS style crapola here

so yeah anyways at the moment they have these woofers 6" ones with kevlar cones you might have heard about. they have about a 1cm if that part where the glue has come away and the cone is separated from the surround. they even sell you the glue to repair it and they are like $20 for these speakers

now i dunno about you guys but I wanna grab a bunch and build a bit of a home speaker setup for the ol PC

or you can use them for ditching at the geeks at Jaycar/Alotronics (those that work downstairs)

but yeah anyways email me if you need prices on shite and I will check

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
