Well Riceboy, when I bought the car the boost connections had been plugged up (disconnected) . She was running on 5bars... now its alot more :(

They reconnected the boost, tuned it, and minor service minus an oil change.. (did it not long ago) and gave it a once over to see if anything needs attention...Have I missed anything out?

ETA: I don't think I've missed anything out, the list is in the car and its too cold to go and get it :sick:

Price is irrelevant. What matters is a job well done and a happy customer! :P

I have to agree that paying a little more to get fantastic service is priceless. Why pay less for a dodgy job and get urself all fussed up about it? For me, if i can't afford it, don't buy it/do it/own it.

Anyway, 5psi u mean. 5bar boost = .... bye bye engine? =)

aren't Hyperdrive one of SAUWA sponsors? What sort of discounts do they give? I was looking at their FC D Jetro pack installed and tunned for the GTR...mmm... I know you can't put a price on experience and a good job, but when you can buy a D Jetro on eBay for $1000 and then plug in the module yourself = $1200 just to tune...mmm... still pricey. Maybe the member discount would make it hurt the hip ocket less? Anyone know?

If you can get a DJetro off Ebay , brand new , with the harness pack and MAP sensors then I will have 4 of them please.

You are looking at a std Power FC or maybe the DJetro minus the essential MAP kit.

For STD power FC's we charge $1700 supplied , fitted and tuned with an Australian warranty or $450 to fit and tune if you supply the power FC ( but not the DJetro).

Please get your facts right .

Cheers

Ken

GODTHRILA, on nengun, to get the Power FC DJetro delivered with neccessary nipples MAP sensors etc will cost you around $1400 delivered so for Hyperdrive to supply, fit, tune and provide knowledge and advice for just over $2K is a good deal i reckon.....

Ken,

hows my head taste!?! next time you try to bite it off I suggest you chew first!!!

sorry mate didn't mean to offend or say your prices were too high, ive always believed in payin for experience and a good job... for the record everyone, I thought it was a D Jetro, but it was a std FC...my mistake... all hail Ken :O

I think a thread on pwr FC would be a great idea... such a cool peice of gear maybe Ken can arrange a group buy with a group discount on install and tune as well???

haha... bites my head off and then gets a free plug for his troubles

There is a huge thread on SAU somewhere about Power FC.

I didn't think I bit your head off but see it from our point of view. The internet is a powerful tool and your post , without checking the true facts , puts us in a bad light by suggesting that we are very expensive when in fact when it comes to power FC tuning in Perth , we are actually the cheapest of the known shops.

There are group buys on Power FC's ( also on here ) for $950 from Japan direct which is a killer deal and we are happy to fit and tune them for you at $450.

Apology accepted :(:) :)

hehehe

Cheers

Ken

    • These are small points I should actually add to my original post. GKtech makes an extended slave line for this conversion. It's what I use, and it works well. You'll also need a CD009 slave cylinder.  S/R Chassis Z33/Z34 Conversion braided clutch line As for transmission sensors, you'll need to both extend the wiring and replace the connectors. I can't recall which is which, but one is your neutral switch and the other the reverse switch. As they are just switches, just test for continuity with your transmission in neutral or reverse to figure out which is which. Connectors:  VQ35 neutral Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties VQ35 Reverse Switch Connector | Wiring Specialties 
    • I’ll try and see it could be the release bearing. As for the 4th gear grind maybe clutch doesn’t disengage properly cause it is slightly like very slightly hard to go into first could be due to the slab cylinder pin being short uni clutch is a twin plate.   Ive attached some assembly photos hopefully you can open the link and see maybe detect what’s wrong https://share.icloud.com/photos/0dc2YvW__Hl6jl-l2_0jejjpg https://share.icloud.com/photos/09e0jkWOK-vP48c1cfY6u3ViA https://share.icloud.com/photos/0b4rDmh5R7pK7fb1VtND73a3g https://share.icloud.com/photos/05eeUi_6dC4DVi80jOUYDgb0g https://share.icloud.com/photos/06335TgY1XxyIJal_wkdQLhzw
    • Yeah for sure that is peddle adjustment 
    • What are your thoughts on this after having it for a while, worth getting?
    • Downshifts are harder on transmissions than upshifts, the input shaft naturally slows down once disconnected from the engine so the synchros aren't doing all the work. There's no "natural" tendency for an input shaft to increase RPM. Something is not right there, I don't have a great answer on what. You can try a dedicated GL4 75W90, I plan to switch to Motorcraft XT-M5-QS which is supposedly a very good 75W90 for NB Miatas which have a weirdly sensitive transmission from the factory. I would chase down why your clutch is making a hissing noise, that's not normal. It might be no big deal but in the absence of anything else to investigate I would look at that.
