I've found VTNZ Thorndon fairly good, if you don't want to go to the upper hutt one. Haven't experienced a pink sticker though so cannot comment on their performance in that regard

Thorndon were dicks about my GFs car.

Personally I don't buy into the whole "they don't do repairs so they're not gonna fail you on BS" thing. They tend to be a bunch of grumpy old failed mechanics who don't give a shit and aren't far away from parking wardens when it comes to failing you on pedantic crap.

I'd rather support my local garage. At least they know I'm mechanically minded and there's about a 75% chance that anything they find wrong I'll fix myself so they're not likely to say stuff is broken either.

hahah ill just take in in and see what happens, haha i dont think i want to chance it driving it into wellington, it kinda stands out like dogs balls and i dont fancy the $1000 worth of fines if i happen to get pulled up by a doosh cop like old officer malcolm the faild mechanic tht guy gets me going every time weather im in the wrong or not.

So i phoned vtnz this morning and asked them weather the car i brought had been pinkstickerd, the woman checked up on there system and it came back as not being pink stickerd, even know my mate who owned it before me had been pinkeyd about 5 times and kept peeling off the sticker untill it blew a beb which is when i got it.. i took in in and too my suprise i only faild on 3 minor things ;D first thing rear brakes leak from caliper banjo bolts, second nail in LR tyre (pulled it out my self and was a small screw wasnt leeking, thirdly LR hand break cable rubbing on rim Bracket missing. haha went to pikapart and got what i needed cost less than a 5note and will be taking it in to get my wof and a reg 2mwro ;):D

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
