Hi there, my name is James I was priviously one of two mechanics at ATS Australian Turbo Sales (Tullamarine) owner:- Max Haywood & Theo papadopolis the second mechanic is Garry Morrison. Well, I'm currently working as the mechanic at JSA Imports (Bell st Preston). I've been working there as of the 1st of feb 2011 (which is not long I know) BUT!! I thought I might post this comment to give my view on the situation at JSA. Prior to my arrival at JSA. There was a mechanic by name of SAM who I know personally. (unfortunatly) Who was incharge of repairing all the vehicles there. Anyway....., I know some of the vehicles that he worked on and to tell you the truth, I don't know how he got away with it??? and if your one of those unlucky ppl, than I'm truly sorry. So..... this what I propose. For first 10 ppl who priviously brought a vehicle from JSA (reciept of sale required) and who had problems it. I will repair it with no labour cost's. I will perform all the necessary mechanical repairs to your vehicle with YOU! supplying ALL! the required parts to repair it. Thus, proving it to be labour free. For these 10 lucky ppl after I repair your vehicle, I only ask for you to post a comment on here & for you to leave me your contact details. That way the next customer can verify that I repaired you car. That way ppl will know that this is no joke! Why am I doing this you ask???? The reason is simple! It's to rid JSA'S reputation of being doggy. Oh! & just to let you know, we've now moved to number 20 Cope St Preston (about 1km away)

Tell me you saw this on this site to recieve this discount. Thank you all for reading and I hope to see you at the work shop.

JSA is a joke.

-Prices are a joke,

-Cars are an even bigger joke.

Alot of dodgey stuff going on there. Had a friend who brought a Supra from them about 1 year ago, car played up and he went back under warranty and in for a service. Timing belt snapped as it wasnt even changed and they didnt even change the oil and put a $900 bill on top. His mistake and he learnt the hard way. Plenty of other places with a good reputation. Try SSV or J-Spec. Cheaper and higher quality.

I would stay away.

1) Probably wasn't the wisest move bumping a three-year old thread...

2) The best way to improve JSA's reputation would be to change their name to something else...

Two good points but I think the reputation will always follow them..

How many forums is he going to bump old threads on and I actually noticed a few business who have changed there names recently especially in VIC.

      RB25DET Solid lifter conversion

      By Yeetus · Posted

      Gday, Due to not finding much up to date info on this topic I thought I'd make a thread to get peoples latest opinions/recommendations. Background info -  I've got a S1.5 R33 GTST as a fun project car, mainly for street use and occasional drag strip, apart from all the cosmetic things I'll be doing a full rebuild of the engine with forged internals. Since it'll be getting new cams (kelford) and springs to match I thought I might as well get new lifters and valves while I'm at it, the dash says 160k KMs but the engine seems pretty tired, compression measures about 130psi across all cylinders so I'd like to freshen everything up. This is where I'm tempted to just fork out the extra and go solid lifters while it's all apart, aiming for 400-450kw atw with a flex tune. Assuming all supporting mods (oiling, fuel and all bolt ons) with a lightly ported head and turbo to match (yet to make a decision possibly gtx3582r or similar from Hypergear) I've seen the Tomei kits with just the buckets getting around, Supertech sells most things - Supertech High Performance Cam Followers | Trusted Racing Cam Followers Questions -  Has anyone found the Hydraulic lifters to limit them at this power level? Is it usually found that you can just clean the stock lifters and find they work fine?  Does going solid lifters save any headaches/issues with hydraulic lifters in the future? Any recommendations on other things that will need to be replaced, I know I'll need to get the solid profile cams but can you use the same type of valves and springs/retainers and is it recommended to change the guides and stem seals?    Summary -  Basically looking for pros/cons and wanna know if I'll actually need the extra RPMs from solid lifters or it'll just be bragging rights to say it ReVs OvEr 8000 Cheers

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      Ha ha ha, this stuff they had was installing Toshiba PLCs that were made some time in the 1990s, and they were replacing GEM80 PLCs. To let those two talk (staged upgrade along a ~1.2km long building that was split into 4 sections), was a bunch of WinXP machines running Java gateways... There was no way to put something like ProfiSafe in... Most of the HMI machines were WinXP, with Java program, with a custom button board emulating a keyboard... About the only buttons in the operator stations that went direct to the PLCs was the eStop. There was some interesting design stuff in that place...

      Stock bypass valves are good for plenty of boost.

      r34 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check for fuel flow out of the outlet end of the rail. Check for spark. Try to start with aerostart (or pressure can brake cleaner or similar solvent in a car) prayed in through TB. If you have fuel and you have spark and it will fire on substitute fuel, then seriously suspect that E85 sitting for ages in your fuel system has destroyed something and put it in your injectors.
