Can anyone recommend a good place to get a FMIC installed in Canberra?

It will probably be a HKS kit using the stock pipework so the main criteria is for someone who won't butcher the front bar any more than necessary.

Also, some idea of what it would be likely to cost would be handy so I don't get screwed......

I would normally have a crack at doing it myself, but kind of out of action at the moment.

Thanks!

what about a sau day and we come somewhere u can watch and we all try put it in haha??? :(

in all seriousness, i have seen numerous front mounts kits be put in by ed at integra, so give him a call and he should be able to sort you out. price, i have no idea so ask him i guess!

Umm, I think I like plan B better. Thanks Gus, I'll give Ed a call.

yea i saw ewen's job on his fmic and i am pretty sure he said ed did it. looked like he did a really good job with it. i did mine myself it really isnt that hard especially if you are using the stock pipework its just time consuming to do it properly.

Ed did Ewens which is a HKS kit and its beautiful... mounts perfectly up, pipework fits without scrubbing on everything and how it should. Doesnt cost too much either... take him a Hybrid kit and he will swear at you for days though :) jokes

Yep, that was mine. Chris was fitting some of the Whiteline/Bilstein gear from Sydneykid's group buy.

    • Ok gotcha, so one post to fpr  another to bov  and I have the mishimoto boost controller and a link g4+ so I’d just have the tuner set it up properly. For the last two from plenum post throttle to  ecu/ boost controller, I know that I have a hose coming from the ecu that I was confused about so I assume that’s what connect to the boost controller from the ecu? And then the last is just from plenum to boost controller then to wastegate?
    • From there, it was just a quick electrical check, prime the oil and start her up Which, is not what happened. 1. Bloody seppo Aeropro battery holder. Not only was it too tall for the battery (which I'll forgive them for, I have another battery the same nominal size that is taller than Neil's one, but the bracket is a fixed height so the battery was spaced up) But the thing that really shits me is the hardware to hold it on requires a 7/32 Hex key. WTF. No-one will ever be able to remove or install the damn thing without a hex key they don't own 2. Kill switch no longer worked once the console was installed. Neil mentioned above he had to adjust the length but it no longer cleared the console once installed. Sorted. 3. Suspiciously, the brake light holders were hanging in the boot with no globes. Sure enough the stopper on the brake pedal was missing so they are always on unless the kill switch is activated. Will pick one up tomorrow (turns out 32 and 33 don't use the same stopper) 4. All that sorted, I turned on the kill switch, turned the key to ACC. Nothing. Turned it to IGN. Nothing. Checked some fuses and found the main IGN in the boot was missing which improved things once it was replaced. Now ECU and dash lights turn on with IGN but still no fuel pump. 5. Turned it to Start....ECU on, no fuel pump, no starter. Plus the voltage dropped straight to 9v.  I suspect the starter is f**ked but am going to have to work through it all and see what is happening, really looks like more than one issue. Does anyone have the R33 fuse box key with the circuit it sources from (eg BAT, ACC, IGN, SRT etc) and supplies? I can find a translated list showing Amps and circuit without supply circuit, and I can find supply circuit without Amps and target circuit.
    • 3rd time lucky, the AAC is now all plumbed up after getting some final fittings All set up under the plenum of maximum access
    • OK, so the weight has been bugging because it was really low. I did it again today and got a more believable answer at 1246 without driver And with a 93kg driver I'm pretty sure the car was still slightly on the quickjack last time meaning the full weight was not on the scales
