GAZZUZZ:
you don't always have to start from the bottom.

Fill the tank and stop filling at first click.

Drive to Aja and come back. Fill the tank again and stop at first click. Measure the amount of fuel bought.
Awesome logic

Car Talk › Re: Extensive Undercarriage Rust - Frame Swap Or Rust Fix? (Pics) by dicksonadams(m):
I have been delaying on dealing with this issue of rust in my Xterra, so I want to throw this question out here. I've got extensive undercarriage rust on my truck, and I want to know whether I should just swap the frame out, or if it can still be redeemed with a fix for the rusted parts. I have no intention of parting with the car because of it's sentimental value.

Auto tech experts, your view would be highly appreciated. Pictures are here:

Hello. The problem with the car.will either be,1) is like there have done some electrical conversion on it
2) Or the brain box (ECU) Programer doesn't get the programe perfectly well
3) Or the car has been using a wrong brain box due to the conversion. But when the previous brain box now get spoilt. Your engineers now go and get the correct one which may cause that
4) And also may they can found the right brainbox to that car. That us why the get something more similar to that which may lead them to do a conversion on the car electrical system.
But what so ever.my advice is that the engineer/s working on the car should try to get exactly like the previous ecu that is on the car before and he should do a programing with a good programer machine

Well, I maintain my corolla with grade a tokunbo parts.

Alternator you listed is 10k tokunbo, to change the kitting less than 1500, it's the kitting that normally spoil

Front shock is 4k each without spring, the spring will be there forever hardly spoil.

Back shock 3500 each without spring.

Some stuff I buy tokunbo some new one.

Brake pad corolla wholesale in trade fair is 1800, retail outlet some sell 2500/3000

Stabilizer leakage the 2pcs is 1200 whole sale price in trade fair. Retail sale for 1800/2000

This are common things that spoils in corolla.

The spare parts are very cheap forget mechanic quotation. Forget this one na original this one na fake all parts comes from China, some repackage to sell it expensive.
Guy give me link to your grade A shock absorber seller, ladipo Boyz don show me shey ge

radautoworks:
Again I understand but there are some caveats.

1) we do not set our prices. Carquest does.


2) let's do some math here. Shipping and taxes by container usually costs us about 25-35% depending how bad clearing is. Then we have about 5% utilities like diesel since we are in Nigeria which is not cheap. Then we have another 12% salaries, maintenance and inventory costs. So... What's a fair markup in your opinion. And let's not even talk about when we bring them in by air which costs $3.38-4.50 per pound (which by the way we do not pass on to the customer and often barely break even on just to get it to those that need it).

3) when things go wrong during shipping from the states, headquarters doesn't eat the costs, we do.

4) we carry cheaper alternatives for your car- they just aren't in stock in Nigeria (see third picture)

It doesn't work for everyone which is why I offered alternative methods to get what you want, which you have. It was possible because coils are not too heavy. Try the same thing with brake pads or an ac compressor and you'll see things more our way.

I seriously would like to know based on the percentages I gave you above for the specific ignition coil I quoted, what would you sell it at? Assume your cost is about 30% off the price in the first picture. Second picture "cost" is the selling price I quoted you. And yes, that's the same E789 coil.
But madam Radu, your price dey always weak me, any time I see your quote I dey sad, good quality but not just affordable at the naija Hustle guy present condition.

Keep it up ma, you Boyz Sha get there some day embarassed
