I'm a new car detailer, but I don't charge any less than $200 to buff and deswirl an entire car.. I've found most people that drive imports think that's rediculous, but it takes me at least a whole day - especially on black.

I can service your car for you, if your after a general Oil, oil filter, coolant, plugs, timing check and whatever else you want doing and i wont say shit about anything else about regency if it makes you happy hehe. Use all genuine parts.

Ryan, I'd like to have my timing checked if you can do that. I have my own timing light, but obviously there are no leads to clip it to. Damn RB motors :D Might also change my plugs too ... I have a set of iridiums ready to go.

Kev,

The SP23 is out of lease soon, and I want a full detail to prepare it for sale (buff, interior detail including condition the leather, and engine bay cleanup) How much to do that? Yes I realise it may be a few hundred but can make the difference when it comes to sale ;)

Cheers

Lee

^^ theres a loop on the coilpack ignitor you get your signal from to check timing :)

That doesn't give a correct reading as it's intented for the Timing lights that Nissan use. You need to take no1 coilpack out and run a lead (any normal lead) between the coil and the spark plug, then you will get a true reading.

Righto, that was my next option. But I don't have anything with a lead to donate for the timing check :D

yeah as ryan said dont use that loop at the back it doesnt give an acurate reading (gives me exactly a double reading)

Their is an image of the loop to use in SydneyKids timing belt how to some where.

You can actually just slide the coilpack cover back a bit and get the light onto number 1 coil pack somehow and move it around slighlty and youll eventually pick it up with an inductive timing light ruby. Give me a yell some time if you want i did my own timing belt and managed to get a reading from it this way to make sure all was sweet once it was back together (checked timing prior and after belt change)
