Have you thought about recording the conversation with them? Not sure bout the legality of doing this but I reckon it might just make em listen as well. Just go back and say you wanna have a final shot at settling things, keep a recorder in your pocket (I know a lot of people that do this when gettin pulled ova by cops) and ofcourse keep calm and let him dig his own hole.

When thats all done, let him know that ACA may have a special interest in your recording. Meanwhile, I hope that MVIRA is able to help ya out.

Good Luck

Nah, I have to say... Dempo's car is my favourite falcon 'cause everything (so far) has been done properly and with a lot of time and consideration...

Only problem is if he keeps on going i'll HAVE to juice up the line to keep infront of him... :)

Not all bad when you think about it though... :)

Ok guys,

I need to have the car diagnosed and a quote to fix... where should I go? (mechanics)...

I live in Hornsby so it has to be close to home, has to operate on weekends too...

Also, while im at it... any good air-con places?... same as above...

cheers.

  • 4 weeks later...

Ok guys... thought i'd keep updating this (cause i said i would)...

Am having different tyres put on the car by the dealer because the ones on it don't match the placard... took a lil arguing but it's being done so no major dramas there...

I'll be sending in forms to DOFT and MVRIA soon so i'll be eagerly waiting a response and will keep you posted...

YEP!!! Damn snow tyres!!!!!!!! lol

they're getting swapped with different ones... How do i know you blitz/how do you know the car?

The dealer is in concord (not sure what area of sydney that is - not the best geographically)...

Yeah, i know eh man... I wasn't having a go at you either... just trying to say something without saying it if you know what i mean.... (:))

And yeah, I've found the guy who runs the place is EXTREMELY bodgy.... he's failed to meet his OWN WRITTEN CONTRACT on a number of instances so it's off the DOFT and MVRIA i go.... :(

Thanks heaps man,

Dave.

    • ...just a note of warning, you shouldn't drive it about with the TCU in limp mode with only 3rd gear available ~ apart from the fact you end up sheering the ATF at the torque converter interface, the high clutch in these isn't especially the strongest, particularly bolted to the RB25DE mill...which is likely a 4AX01 box with lighter duty high clutch (the RB25DET got the bigger high clutch)...be careful out there...
    • Hoping to do similar mods to my RB20 once I get it running and reliable again
    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
