Hi,

I've been trying to book my car in at Speedworks since the start of the new year.. No-one seems to be answering the phone. Had a friend check the shop itself last week while i was at work, and he said it was closed for Xmas till the 14th of Jan.. but yesterday and today i've had no answer on the phone again.

Thought i'd double check the phone number is 9242 8888 ?

Anyone know if they have reopened?

Their website seems to be dead aswell.

damn..

Any suggestions on where to get my car fixed? .. i'm in the Wembley area.

Had a problem for a few months now where the car misfires under load when it's hot. Originally around 4000rpm.. been getting worse with time / increasing weather temp.. now happens 3000 or below :)

Replaced fuel pump and spark plugs... installed a fuel pressure regulator... tried 2 sets of standard coilpacks.. tried aralditing each set of coilpacks to insulate them better...

Car is an R32 gts-t.

Mods are: pod filter, fmic, 3" catback exhaust

For some reason i'm getting 11psi boost (though i haven't been able to use it in a couple months) without any boost controlling device. .. Only other concern i have about the car is the standard oil pressure gauge reads low, but i've heard those are really unreliable.

it did, still traded as speedworks tho

the shop has been shut AFAIK, one of the mechanics was going to run stuff from his home garage, but don't wuote me on it as im not 100% on that..

that would be right dodgey as usual...go to tenagha motosport or kansai garage both are in wangara. hyperdrive or allstar garage in malaga, take a pick :(

    • Way more than 1cm. Appreciate the advice maybe I try changing the bushing first
    • IMG_8641.mov     She doesn’t sound the best but starts with out using any gas now. I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
