Hi Guys,

Needing my timing belt done - my water pump has been making a hell of a noise for a couple of years so might as well get all of it done.

Heard Alan at K G McLeod in Waverley is the guy - round $1200 sound right?
Cheers.

Hey @sjase,

 

Not sure if you've sorted this out yet but if not my advice would be to get a quote from them for sure.

Alan won't actually be doing the work as he's on the Auto Electrical side of things but their mechanics are still good and they will use genuine parts too. 

 

But yeah, definitely get a quote.

I got quite severely shafted by them when they did my cambelt.

I didn't even consider getting a quote as they had always done my work.

Even though the bill included a set of rear pads and 1 rear wheel bearing it came to $2400. That one hurt haha

 

Anyway, good luck!

Had a quote from them for 1600 + GST...Southern court gave me quote for 1200 +GST...then happen chance went to Discount tyres to get my wheel balanced - they quoted 990 + GST for Subaru parts or 800 + GST for Gates kit...
Read up on the Gates kit - apparently were good until 2016 when they started replacing Japanese parts with Chinese...
Apparently the Aisin kit TKF-010 is the one with all japanese parts - haven't been able to find any in NZ - anyone know? 
Cheers

Just go OEM Subaru parts not worth the risk for $100. And make sure that $900 quote includes tensioners and idlers as well

      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
