cheap compliance places in sydney


Recommended Posts

hey guys, im looking for a place to do the compliance work on my 89 sil80.

A mate said there is a place in hornsby that does it for $1k, but I cant get thru to get the info off him.

Anyone know off a cheap place around the sydney area, everyone keeps telling me sspi but kirawee is pretty damn far for me (im on the northern beaches)

i don't know how cheap they are compared to other places, but I can't fault Grey Imports for service and quality. 2 things that mean more to me than outright price. FTR I thought their prices were reasonable too. They are in Annandale.

Call Nathan on 9519 5150 tell him Richard sent you. :cheers:

yeah i posted on ns, last time I went to the rta they didnt understand about imported cars and insisted the closest blue slip place would do it...

It ended with 3 middle-aged ladies ganging up and telling me im wrong and yelling at me, followed by me swearing alot and walking out, waiting 45min sucks.

SSPI will do a really good deal, speak to chris or emanuel.

SSPI will probably have your car done within a couple of days depending if it simple compliance and no hassle with it, but there reputation is excellent.

They will have a website up and running soon

www.sspi.com.au check it out in a week or so

i understand that there are plenty of things i could do myself, specially after lots of chats with others on this forum (thanks DAN00H!). I did entertain the idea for a while.

while i trust myself with a bandsaw and a setsquare, I don't trust my handiwork with fitting car safety stuff. I realise I'll only need side intrusion bars in certain unlikely circumstances, but in those circumstances i will want them to work like nothing else and i'm not prepared to negotiate my passenger's wellbeing on it.

i prefer to get Nathan to do it - he sounds like a great bloke and I have no problems going with Grey Imports. at the end of the day, i'd rather just pay the fees and know it's done right. my time is valuable (and this is something that shows like auction squad and the like don't emphasize - sure, you can do a lot yourself, but do you have time?). :P

    • And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.
    • Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.
    • I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.
    • Deeve, I don't suppose that you've made any progress on this? My Stagea has the exact same problem, and just like you, I've read through as much as I can online, with no real progress. My car isn't throwing any codes at all, which is a little frustrating. I've changed plugs, checked the wiring and harness. A new MAF gets here next week, but I'm not hopeful it will solve the issue.
    • I installed it all myself,  It was really easy to install.  I got a professional to do the degas/gas.
