they said they're going to need another day with the car, I asked then if they could give me a progress report on the car, and they told me They've Replaced the Tint on the Rear window, and replace the springs in the front (it was too low at the front). I'm not an expert and I have no idea how busy these guys are, but they've had the car since Midday Tuesday and all they've done is put a layer of tint on the rear window and swap the springs. They told me they are currently working on the tachometer now, but the car won't be ready until end of day tomorrow.

Doesn't look like I'm bringing it to the cruise.

Hi do you guys know what process is to register a interstate vehicle in WA, have any of you done it ? Is it hard ?

I did search registering interstate but only found eastern state stuff.

Think you need to go pits , and get a road worthy Certificate , haven't done it my self tho [emoji28]

Sad. They get pretty busy most days with engine rebuilds, mods and usual services. But pretty annoying they promised two days but took longer.

Being in similar environment, everyone wants to know when it will be ready

Go short and your a flaming mongrel if it blows out.

Go long and you miss out

Best guess is still only a guess

Right, Under promise, Over Deliver, retail 101.

I'm not upset that it's taking a bit longer, I'm disappointed because we discussed a time-frame, and they couldn't keep it, and they didn't ring me to tell me it was going to take longer.

Also, it took more than 24hours, just to apply tint to 1 window, I know they out-source the tint... but it doesn't take 24 hours to tint 1 window.

also, they charge by the hour, so the longer they take, the more I pay.

Ring around on places that tint c what the going rate is this way you know you wont be over charged, also you are paying for something to be done/service if you dont get said service then negotiate

    • I don't run the spring but it means you need to set your own belt tension.  I put tensioners on both sides too.
    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
