dude, do a search in NSW section for tuners..

theres heaps of threads, it will be more informative to you than people repeating themselves

yeah, i searched and read the threads...

i especially liked the thread about the south coast tuners wanted and how he was told to goto canberra..

i know how to do a search, if i cant find the information i need i will ask the question

if you search you might get a thread from 200yrs ago saying that X tuner is good when latley he's been blowing motors (for example), what if someone has found someone new? i think its ok if a thread comes up every now and then unless we make a sticky about tuners.

Thanks duncan..

those are comments which are useful to myself and other members in the southern sydney area... none of this go and search crap

i was just trying to help, i even did the search for you. am i suppose to read your mind and know you already did a search?

no need to cry like a bitch.

Ken from Incar Motorsports Wetherill Park (that's south isn't it? or is that more west?) is pretty good. Don't know how busy he is at the moment though cause he just opened up a new car yard.

9609 1122 (speak to Ken, tell him you spoke to wil with the white skyline).

Good thing about Ken is he takes his time. I've never felt rushed. The only time I did was when I wanted him to hurry up so I could drive the f'ing thing. LOL

i personally wouldnt take it to greg to tune a fully rebuilt engine.

greg is a top bloke but his facilities are a bit outdated. [sorry greg]

if you want the best possible tune for your car, go see Jim @ CRD at silverwater.

the tune is the most important part of the running of the car, besides the engine itself. as NXTIME said, dont limit yourself. a good tune and a bad tune is the difference between a blown engine and a perfectly running one.

do yourslef a favour and go to CRD

ive got a tuner that is really really good with RB motors i use and highly reccomend jim ghelis 02 9557 4000 at TUNEHOUSE performance center in chalder st marrickville. really nice clean facility and highly skilled staff. i use these guys and my car comes out with more power evrytime i use them. if you go there tell them nick with the maroon 33 told you about the place.

greg must be half decent as he fairly blew past me on the straight at eastern creek in his white GTR the last time we were out there! and I think had fastest time of the day for that leg of the state supersprint champs.

i have my reasons why i would not get him to tune my car. mechanical work and installation all good but tuning id rather go elsewhere.

greg drives like a maniac and has great skill and has competed many times in such events, the r32 gtr was also very close to stock, so not much need to tune if any at all.

    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
