My heater core started leaking about a year ago so i disconnected it and all is good. Now my wife is driving the car and would like a working heater for her and the kids. I just havent got the time or effort to have a go at this job myself so i am looking for someone to do it for me.

Does anyone want to do fo it for me (cash paid of course) or can you recommend someone who may be up for the job?

Any help appreciated.

Cheers

Yes its a crap job. Three members spent best part of a day doing it. I just paid a sparky $300 to out and in the dash (it pretty much has to come out completely).

Go onnnn do it yourself, not too hard, did my R31 in 4-5hrs on Saturday, taken it easy with a few drink stops in between.

Nissans are easy to pull apart and put back together, they're just logically built.

Just need to pay attention to the bolt/screw positions and all will be fine.

I also got quoted $300 for the job at some radiator place in Murrumbeena near the train station.

$300 is a decent price for the job to be done.

mine went a yr ago too.

havent fixed it as yet, yes $300 quoted as well at a natrad radiator place, plus second hand core system

havent been too bothered with it as yet, but one day ................

Ska did this job a while back. Have a look in DIY or PM Ska.

Ska's DYI is what convinced me to get someone else to do it. I am too impatient to do that. I can just imagine finishing up with about 20 screws left over after i had put the dash back in.

Surely someone has had this job done by a workshop in Perth?

I might have someone who is going to do the job for me but is still need to get the parts.

mkk

Does anyone know where i can buy a new heater core from? I searched but couldnt find anything yet i remember someone posted up a link to place selling them a while back.

cheers

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
