heck I didn't find J.B. Hifi any good at all, they did the worst job on amplifier install I've ever seen. They made every promise and did absolutely shit. If you do get what you want you will have wasted your time because they'll keep telling you to come back later even before they start and have you booked in. Did it to me threee times before they started and I gave up after I saw their shitty install and decided to go elsewhere and pay again to get it installed right. Their guarantee is guarantee to waste your time!

didn't know allan was still around. he does decent work. ( used to work with him in sydney years ago before he did his own thing.)

also make sure they have a security licence.

Chris: Yeah, he is the head installer in NSW for Brant. However, as Allan himself would admit, its far better to approach him through his own business rather than Brant (that's if you want a Brant installed: he does other installs too) as Brant push him to do jobs quickly, while he can take the time to do a better install if you do it privately through him.

He took a good 3-odd hours installing the alarm in my system (without a break: I was watching him). I was very impressed with his attention to detail and his upfront manner.

By the way Edge I am part owner in the business that does all the installs for J.B Hifi. If you had a problem I would of heard of it. I dont recall any problems like that and the first thing that comes to my mind is that you say that you gave up and went elsewhere and then you say that you had to pay again to get it installed right. I thought we didnt install it in the first place so how did you get it installed right? Anyway if this bullshit story is somewhat true I would be more than happy to refund your money to the last cent. Bring your receipt and prove to me what you have said. Dont go making comments that arent true and false. I am more than happy to refund any money that you have spent. Also let me know which workshop/shop you had the work done at and approximate date. Maybe it was a while ago before I took over as their were other installers. I am interested to know.

2hypo,

you ar based in newcastle correct?

if so then you also do the work for repco on a national basis.

( NIS I think you are.)

LW.

I watched him do a antitheft on 20min flat several years back ( this was in his Precison Installations days.)

Well apart from 2Hypo being unbiased, he sure is a gentleman.

So it wasn't just a private message I replied to.

Anyhow, I would like to thank JB Hi Fi for contacting me and offering to go the extra mile to fix things up to my (the customer) satisfaction.

Since you also posted publicy, I will simply say that what I posted was genuine personal experience as a balance to what turns out was your free advertising statement.

(of course they would look after you, you own them).

I am actually based in the Sydney. I currently run workshops in the following locations Parramatta, Leichardt, Bondi Junction and Bankstown. I am part owner as my brother is the other partner and he is more involved than myself. I control the books the out goings, wages, invoices etc....I run 3 businesses at the moment and never have a dull moment.

Thanks for your comments Edge. Also thanks for your PM. Customer satisfaction is our guarantee. As my PM states if there is anything I could do to help you please let me know.

Cheers

Hey Guys,

I got a system installed yesterday & I would highly recommend the guys who did it to ANYONE...The system is awesome, the customer service couldn't have been any nicer & this guy went out of his way to do the best job...

I was also involved every step of the way & allowed to ask any stoopid question I could think of (which was alot!!!)...I even ended up learning heaps about the whole process surprisingly enough...

If you're interested just PM me & I'll pass on the details...

Good luck

Hey,

For those looking for a custom-audio installer/supplier I just wanted to let you know I have found an awesome one...

I have just had a system installed in a week & I couldn't be happier with the results...Now I'm ready to 'doof' with the best of y'all...

You couldn't get better customer service & professionalism, you're involved in everything & they don't mind you butting in & asking stoopid questions (which I am really good at!!)...

If anyone is looking for a quality sound system PM & I'll pass on the details...

P.S. I have no ties to this guy I was just overly impressed with his work & thought I'd share it with y'all...

    • Bit of a late reply here as me and my wife have been really busy with new born twins. I finally got these issues fixed and it was something really stupid that caused all of this 🤦‍♂️... After alot of mucking around with trying to figure out what is causing these issues, I back probed one of the R35 coils on the power 12v supply, with the engine running it got 25v! And I thought, hang on..., this isn't normal. Measured my battery with the engine running to check for over charge from the alternator and it wasn't that. So then I dissconnected the R35 PRP coil harness and backprobed the power supply on the engine loom where the ignition coil harness connects, with the key on ignition (engine off) it measured 30v! So then I had to trace where that high voltage was coming from and it lead me to the brown relay "ECM & IGN coil relay" inside the cabin next to the ECU on the passanger wall. This relay feeds power to the ECM and ignition coils. Tried swapping it with another same relay. nah still 30v.. coming from the 2 green/white wires in the brown relay. So then I set my multi meter to the beep continuity mode and probed every fuse on the fuse box inside the cabin to try and find this high voltage power source. Wasn't any of the fuses inside the cabin. Then probed all the fuses in the engine bay and BAM, got my power source that was a 10AMP fuse called "ENG CONT". Pulled the fuse out, and what do you know... it was blown. 🤦‍♂️  So then I quickly replaced it with a new 10AMP fuse, started the car and yeah haha [insert extreme face palm]... The RPM blimping thing went away, car idles smoothly now like what it was before. I swear! I checked all my fuses with my test light twice before I created this forum thread. I think, maybe because one side of that faulty 10A fuse lit up on my test light, I must have thought it was still ok and not blown. But now I know to have both sides light up on the test light when checking fuses... I hate diagnosing electricals.... I'd take mechanical problems over electrical problems any day🤣. Drove the car around my suburb with the engine up to operating temp and it runs fine like before. However, I notice that my fuel pressure is still at 49psi. So I'm thinking this must be normal for my system as I've upgraded the stock fuel pump to a Walbro 255L/h with a constant 12v mod.  But anyway, I'm just glad to have my daily back on the road! Thanks everyone for the replies on this thread, all sorted now! One thing I want to ask you tuner guys, my base fuel pressure on the haltech main settings are set to 43.5psi from default (my tuner must have not checked the fuel pressure maybe when tuning my car?). Do I set it to what it actually is idling on at 49psi? Or just leave it ("if it aint broke, don't fix it/leave it")?  
    • The max they would go for me is 50.
    • That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.
    • I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.
