  1. i have just got off the phone with richard at all star performance tuning at geebung and i will be taking my car there next week. thanks for every ones help. and if any one else has any more ideas i am listening p.s. if anyone needs my stock series 1 r33 gts25t computer just gimmie a p.m.
  2. after i picked it up the second time he just said go and have some fun it is very responsive and fun but the problems i asked him about were still there
  3. I will start with my mods. my car is a r33 series 1 gtst -fmic -apexi pod filter -hks bov they lost the screw in the top of it -front strut bar -haltech e11v2 computer (still have my old one if any one wants it). -ngk spark plugs -larger dump pipe -no resonator (my choice). -hi flow cat -3 and half inch exhaust -twin 5 inch tip rage muffler -12 pounds of boost -hi and low boost setting one set at 8 pounds the other at 12 pounds -walboro feul pump 500 hp -power is 195 kw at the wheels after tune from 145 kw at the wheels before tuning -my car idles at 1000 revs I recently came to all star performance tuning at geebung a couple of months ago after a truly horrific time of having my car serviced at ultra tune at strathpine (not going into that hear) i met richard and his crew and my problems were solved, all the crap that ultra tune did was undone and the car ran perfectly. After speaking with him i decided to replace my stock computer with a haltech e11v2 very nice very pretty, but now the car doesnt run very well at the moment. in the morning when i cold start the car i now have to wait for the feul pump to finish making noise and pump the accelerator before i turn the turn the key to start, immediatly following this if it has been cold the night before the car will stall and i will have to start the car again, it will then either rev between 0 revs and 400 revs and struggle like buggery for a few seconds (the worst was about 15 seconds) until something (i am assuming the haltech computer) takes over and the revs go straight up to 1500 revs and start its warm up, which is very nice (briefly) until the revs then decide to drop down between 600 revs and 1100 revs and bounce around (which is not fun at all and quite embarising). the car does this for some minutes until the car is warm enough for me to think about moving, when i move my clutch into position the revs then drop low enogh for the car to stall (which it does so i have to rev the car to between 1500 revs to 2000 revs to avoid that from happening). After all that has occured i am off to my destination with out a care in the world, until i slow down and come to a stop that is. Gearing down is fine from 5th to 4th to 3rd to 2nd..., then i put the clutch in again to stop and go to 1st then the car stalls (which was terrifying especially coming off a highway or crossing traffic to come off the road into a car park.) i have clutch started the car if i am still moving or i will simply just restart the car like normal and all is well. I have talked to richard about this and he says he has not worked out all the little things yet and that he was not even aware of the car stalling and offered no resoning as to why at start up the car does what i have described earlier. what i have not had the chance to tell him as well is that my feul economy has gone from 500 kms easily to a bad 350 km if i am lucky (this is at low boost and driving like an old lady with an old lady back seat driver). Now richard says that it could take up to a week to get the car tuned to were richard and myself would be satisfactory in the job (having the car for 5 working days already this seemed a bit odd as i assumed he was quite familier with tuning skylines). As for the rest of the drive i could not be happier it revs right at speed it handles a hell of alot better than it did before i came to all star performance tuning and sounds bloody amazing from idle to full blast on and off boost. smiles alround my car for its performance and the work richard at all star did and this is not to bag or put richard down in any way because he is cool and i do respect him BUT i do not have money to through around and i use my car every day and we all now how expensive tuning is. i will still be going to all star performance tuning at geebung for all my skyline needs but i would just like to know if he is the right person for the job. To finish the tune with him or find some one else that has the same quality tune or better to get it done. ANY IDEAS OR SUGGESTIONS? sorry for writing so much but i didnt want to miss anything and i really want to sought this out. p.s. i am not on this site all day every day so if you could p.m. me with your replies that would be great hope to see every one soon at a dinner or cruise or if your ever in strathpine look us up thanks.
  4. i have the same problem with my r33 gtst i asked around for some one to clean it and they wanted $100 bucks to clean each headlight i told him to take a jump. i also asked autobarn and they suggested some headlight cleaner for about $20 didnt really see a result.
  5. early on in my p's i went from a hyundai excel to a r33 gtst and then got my first red light ticket after that i have been real carefull where and when i put my foot down. its quite a challange being in this kind of car with only one point left but i still wont sell my car just because some fat bald guy in a suite thinks i am a hazard to his tax payers funded existence. i get my opens in august and i plan on keeping my car its my choice. cheers.
  6. hey all i have a r33gts25t with a few mods and i am about to place a haltech e11v2 into the car and was wondering if i should also place a feul pump in there while i am at it any ideas on a safe and reliable pump rated at 500 to 750 hp? price wise it doesnt really matter but please let me know if you can. thanks. p.s. is there anyone in the brisbane pine rivers area in the sau because i have not had the chance to meet anyone else with a skyline around my area.
  7. hi yall i have a r33 s1 gtst skyline and for a while now my car has been acting strange. when i start the car up in the morning or after a considerable amount of time the car really struggles to bring its revs up, the car never stalls but it concerns me greatly has any one had this same experience or can anyone help me?
  8. nope i dont park on a hill
  9. when i start my r33 gts25t the revs suddenly go way down and the car struggles for a while until it brings the revs up. does anyone know what is going on? and is there a way to fix my problem?
  10. i was pulled over 2 seconds from getting to my drive way doing about five kays an hour i was breath tested and had my licence closely studied, he said he would catch me later so to speak, i dont know what for (maybe for a kiss and a cuddle). the police do a great job with there coffee and donuts but we are just an easy target for those morons just make sure you have your licence and any other documentation your car needs and all you have to do is smile and say yes sir no sir three bags full sir take there name rank and there cars licence plate number and complain to your local mp or who ever else will listen about our embarresing police force and go on your way for another night of partying. later!
  11. mtx all the way even out of the car in the store they rock your world. thats my opinion after checking out all the stores around brisbane but its all about taste, but unless your just going to sit around and look at it all day dont go for looks tell them exactly what you want ask questions if the person helping you is an idiot ask for the manager and if at any point your not happy say see you later and leave, the customer is always right not the other way round.
