Can anyone in ACT/Canberra help in recomending a Auto Transmission Workshop that has experience with MAZDA 626 with 2 ltr V6 engine, Automatic, 1992 model.

The car is stranded in Belconnen and the owner, a friend is in Sydney.

She was silly enough to drive to ACT for a flower show and it died there.

Being quoted crazy money (near $4K ) to Repair or replace with a S/H unit.

A complete rebuild of my GTS4 Auto with kevlar clutches, 2800RPM Hi Stall and other work only cost me $3K in Melbourne.

Or is it just damned expensive in ACT? :confused:

Sorry I know its not a Nissan but.....

They are the most experienced transmission shop in Canberra, they are not the cheapest but they are fair and honest. Ask for Eddie and say John from Trojan Motorsport refered you.

Thanks very much for that. Appreciate the prompt rely!

I have spoken to Eddie and passed on the message to my friend in Sydney.

Its up to her now to decide which way to go.

      R34 GTT Central Locking Pains

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      My fob has never worked, I once attempted to follow the procedure to re-key it, (I have other fobs for the car alarm thing in there). I actually have three of them. Do aftermarket alarms take over the pairing mechanism for central locking? Or do they piggyback off it? I suppose it depends on the system, right? I have four sets of keys/keyfobs. One definitely works, one I think works, one definitely doesn't work, and I have the OEM one that has never worked :p. Is this fixable/workable/whatever? I mean I know it's beyond "just clean it" but how *do* they get synced up?

      It's actually a really weird comparison... the MX5 is on another level and I kinda question this comparison at all. It'd be closer to compare it to a GTI/Golf/Hatch anything that kicks around. NC MX5 with a turbo has the right to go up with and beat the FD RX7 or 180SX or any other JDM hero car. That's the comparison that would really ruffle feathers.

      @MBS206 you need more shed in your life... What sort of car is your mates race car?  Hopefully he returns the favour when you're ready to get cracking on yours! None of my mates are into cars so I don't have to worry about that as a distraction thankfully.  I have enough other distractions so I don't need that one too!  Between working 6 days a week (5 1/2 really so 55 hours or so per week), both kids have basketball almost every week night (including Friday night in Melbourne - 2 hours away), my daughter plays netball as well, my sons footy has started now and I coach his under 14's side as well as I'm on the Footy club committee this year, I ride motorbikes every spare Sunday I can find, plus trying to be some sort of a husband.  Life is a busy little exercise at the moment!  I wish there were 8 or 9 days in a week sometimes!

      Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
