Id just d a search in the yellow pages under "car mechanic"

99% of workshops have their licience to issue road worthys, its like their bread and butter.

Then just narrow down your seqarch and start calling round to find whos cheap or who can get the job done in a reasonable amount of time.

Yeah, I was hoping someone did RWC at a cheap price for SAU members.

sorry bud theres no such thing queensland transport set the minium pricing of around $58.60 so it wont go any cheaper than that

id issue u with a rwc (if it passed of course) but queensland transport r slack pricks and are a bit slow in sending me out my rwc licence (as its been 1 mth and im still waiting for it to turn up at my work )

Wierd, I though Mercury Motorsport were your sponsors?

Mercury used to be a sponcer of the "club" years ago, but even then you would need to be a club member to take advantage of any of those discounts anyway.

After watching every consumer story on ACA or TT we all know to get the best deal you must "SHOP AROUND"... I hate those retail stories :rofl:

Hey mate, there was a thread started in the classifieds section (i think) by J-Boy asking the same question, he got a tonne of responses, one of which i'll be using next week. Just do a quick search for threads he's started, it'll be there :rofl:

And for the love of jeff, Col it's 'sponsor' :rofl:

      Ticking Sound On Idle - Rb25

      Have you put an aftermarket oil pressure gauge on and verified your oil pressure?   Noise being on the block, on exhaust side, how high up the block does it seem to be? It could be the VCT system getting cranky, especially if it's mainly at idle, and when warm, as that'll be your lowest point for oil pressure. Could be showing that oil passages / VCT solenoid are blocking.

      Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!

      Ticking Sound On Idle - Rb25

      Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers

      This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?
