Hey mate, I'm not too sure on the whole "where are we now" as its the weekend, and I'm still in singapore but will be back in sydney late monday night.... back to the pump issues, I have it on very good authority from both paul and stace, and also SK that all that is needed is it to be mounted in the factory cradle after slight massaging of the mounts, then a relay added to the system... I have given them paul's contact as he is more than happy to talk to them about it.. and to quote him " its a 1 hour job easy " as for the only other drama I think they are having problems with the AFMS? I cant see why? as they should squeeze over with the stock rubber being streched, and then the new apexi filters bolted to the front.... as SK said to me " 2 90 deg brakets to the stock holes and you are done!" good to see you were there to see how it was going..... I hope to have it all sorted by mid week and tuned ...... I am 100% sure the pump and AFMS are a simple job, it is as they say "simple when you know how" ... I just dont want to end up with the bill for the learning experience.... as you could understand naturally....

my thoughts precisely..... seems to be a "bolt on boys" place... however they do a very good tune job just need to learn the aussie way of engineering things to work well, and not just off the shelf :) no real grumbles, they are top guys! just need to give them the right info so they will know how to do it.... I think 1 hour is all that is needed....

Im basically of the opinion that they both do a great job, but the facts remain that CRD are the top dog, but BEL are snapping at the heals with a "willing to improve" attitude... both will turn out a good product, and I am sure anyone using either will be most happy with there GTR.... a bit like tyre choice, mostly personal....

BUMP help

thanks mate! tuner is having dramas... so I will pass on the good oil on it!

ok as this states I have some RB20 AFMS going on the GTR, however it has hit a snag with the mounting up of these.... I am going to be using the RB20/25 apexi filters (dry cone type) so no dramas that side... what about the mounting on the turbo side? is it just a case of forcing the larger 80mm pipe in the rubber connector to the turbos? or is an adaptor needed? and if so what do people use? and where to source in sydney... thanks!!!!

G'day all! I have searched and searched for detailed instructions on here..... but alas, nothing with any detail to help out the guys fitting it! I am currently not in australia, so it makes it hard communicating to the people charged with fitting my pump anyhow, if anyone has fitted an 044 in tank, with no dramas and can post a detailed fitment instructions I will be most greatful!!!! basically my car isnt going anywhere till I can get this pump in, and my next thread involving the AFMS! cheers....

If my car is back I will be there.....

great to hear they are working on it already!!! it will be great to come back and drive it for a change!

main motivation was to be able to have someone that will listen to what you want, and that they would have care for the equipment.... also they responded fast with any questions asked with quality info.... oh and Jerry said they are guns! hope they sort out the little quirks you always have when adding so many new things to a car! for one the boost comp (blitz SBC R) I have no idea how to work as yet..... but they do! value and quality..... I felt CRD are great! but may lack in care factor....

G'day Marko, good to see you liked the wheels! should have the RE55's on there in July!!!! I think the guys at BEL are taking a big step up in the tuning world by having the in house dyno, and should be a force to be reconned with once the workshop is fully set up! how was my car looking? Im away (in HK right now) and back on the 7th so they have plenty of time to get it working perfect! I think they have a great balance in price and in quality of workmanship....

Hey Marko, as you know my car is at BEL right now.... and with their new workshop I am sure they will be doing a good job! they were even so kind as to open up at 7pm on a sunday night so I could drop the car off prior to going away for work.... I think you would be more than happy with the personal service you will get...

tyres are Hercules 4000 225 50 16 and they are 16" rims...

I had my trust dumps GTSS and tomei cams fitted at my engine builder, DART automotive on Belmore Rd Punchbowl.... fitted the rest myself, and now the car is going to be tuned by BEL (virgin dyno ) hope for about 450hp - 500 hp... will post all details once tuned! highly recommend the TRUST pipes!!! oh and I have a set of pipes for sale lucien

I have the trust/greddy split dumps and pipes mated to GT-SS turbos....all fitted up and finished last week, and will be off for a tune on monday with a whole range of crapla being fitted too.... shall be interesting for my money the trust ones are good value at $1100 I looked at all the options, and they came out ahead....

ok looks like I will have to do that soon before there is serious damage... Im hoping it is an easy job... does it loose much PS fluid? and as you describe, it just slides out, and bolt the rest back up? was expensive enough to get this far.... as here I was thinking it was a small job, but it took the guys a fair bit of time while they were fitting all the other gear....

ok looks like I am going the 245 RE55 initially... then once they are finished I might step up to the 265 if there is the need....
