Default Another happy customer!

I just thought I would say how happy I am to be a Northern Diffs / Bluepower customer! Bill and Chris are the nicest guys I have ever dealt with when it comes to my car. I am already over the moon with the new LSD Bill installed for me, with much better response thanks to the 3.73 gears, and i am even getting better fuel economy! I cant thank the guys enough for their fantastic service and willingness to help out. I look forward to a few more mods soon, and I am now convinced my car will be in safe hands! Cheers guys.

Thanks Krissy. I was a bit scared at first, but as with Bill's fantastic advice, its actually better to drive around town now! i dont have to push the go button as hard now to get it going, its just feeling better and better as it wears in! Cant wait to see the difference it has made at Heathcote!

I think Heathcote went down pretty well. Chris stared in the black beast, such an awesome car to watch! awesome effort mate, well done! As for me, i was pretty happy with my taxi :P The new diff worked a treat, although someone needs to teach me how to launch the thing properly. I can feel the bug nipping at me, time to check out the power i think!

Don't fight it. Do what the bug says :Up_to_som

And CONGRATS on scoring a 16.1 at Heathcote. That's well done for your first time out!

Thanks Krissy, i was pretty happy with how it all went.

I cant help the bug, it wants to take over!!! But i dont think i want to go all out track weapon style. i am thinking just extractors and a good exhaust, and after the magic touch from Chris i think i'll be more than happy with it!

Just thought i would report that the car has settled in great! I got bored while Chris was away, so i wasted some money on a stereo system, which has most likely just undone any time advantage the new diff gears had given me! : So it looks like any mechanical work will have to wait till next year, but i'm sure i can at least fit an edit in there for now! Will have to get onto Chris in the next couple of weeks to set it up.

G'day Chris
Just want to say thanks for the tune you have done on my XR8 a couple of weeks ago. Very happy with the results the car feels great, I was suprised to see it reach 240kw, just need to replace the cats and induction some time and come and see you again. On another note the mrs hasn't popped out the twins yet, still waiting.

Thanks mate
Greg

We are so short on numbers at work they cannot give me Sunday off, so I must miss out. Not happy Jan. I could take a sickie but due to current aspirations would not be wise. I will have to postpone for two weeks..............
