What problems are you actually having. We may be able to help you out and save you a lot of money. Had my motor in and out 3 times in the last 2 days. If it's a problem with your engine loom, I rewired mine just yesterday and trust me there isn't that much to them. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Hardcore Racing Components Address: 74 Moss Street (Unit 2), Slacks Creek, QLD, 4127 Phone Number: (07) 32994344 I've never had any dealings with them before, but Queenslands quickest VLT, MYT16 i think has had work done there before. I've heard good and bad stories before, but no real experience with them myself.
