    Default *HELP* auto electrician required.

    Any one know any good auto electricians around bankstown/ the shire areas. I have been waiting for my auto electrician to get back to me to run the looms etc so i can install my
    2jz into my lux.

    I've been waiting 2 weeks now and it looks like my chances of finshing my lux this month are going out the window.

    I guess thats the price you pay when you to get stuff done cheap.

    it was a case of he had started the loom to be matched up to all my lux stuff last year, then he stopped making progress. Since he was attempting to move workshops, so i told him i'll bring it back, once i did some other stuff i wanted to do. Which was fine with him.

    Since then i made the upgrade in motors from a 1jz to the 2jz, which meant buying a few news things to fit it in.

    Seeing i'm not electrical guru, its hard to me to explain what has been done etc. All i can seeing the wiring is sitting in side my cabin.

    Sideshow where are you located?

    Yep, but it only takes a good customer with a good job to get the fire going again

    trav... i might be able to have a look at this. I'm only up the road in Padstow, and i think i remember where you live (5 mins from me).

    I might be able to get a better gauge of what's been done and what needs doing, then can help you let Bob here know what he's up against.
    ...... butt scratcher?!

    Well it looks like i am getting messed about with.

    I haven't heard a thing since my last post.

    One my mates who is helping me with the install of my motor, reckons he can do it in his spare time (thinkng this will take a while as he works most night, and sleeps nearly all day)

    I rang mick's motorsports in milperra and they don't wanna know me.

    So can anyone recommend a good place that will do a good job and won't stuff me around (Says they will do it, and follow it through rather let it sit there)

    I am always willing to pay for a good job, i haven't cut any corners so far on my build.
    I'm not expecting it to be done in a week, i am aware of time frames. So far my build has gone from a 3 months build to a 2 years and counting.LOL. So i have given up on deadlines. But i am hoping to drive this year.

    My advice, wait for sideshow to have the time. Do it once do it properly.
    Sideshow backs himself so you know it will be done properly!
    He is also a nice bloke!
    just my 2 cents!
