Hi All

My name is Ron

Im new to this GTR thing and have a few questions to ask.

Firstly i have recently purchased a 93 R32 GTR and a PFC D-Jetro (thanks to Slide)

I was just wondering what would the costs be for -

1: to install and tune the PFC

2: to do a full service just to make sure everything is ok (as in change all fluids, belts, pumps?? )

and any other things that i should have looked at while its in the shop.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks

Hey Ron!

and welcome to SAU and SAUWA :P

i can only help with my question;

1: to install and tune the PFC

-im not sure about the cost of installing the PFC. But tuning should be between $400-$600 for your 1st tune.

Best to give some of the workshops around perth and call and they will be able to quote you up.

Check out the The Consolidated Workshop thread

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=141454

for a list of workshops NOR and SOR.

My personal recommendation for NOR is Hyperdrive (for tuning/services etc)

For a simple oil change in a workshop (eg XSpeed) you're looking at $180-$217 depending on the quality of oil used.

GT-R, go for the $217 one. They will also give you a report on what work may need to be done and the general overall condition of your car.

May sound like a lot, but it costs me $100 minimum to do my own oil changes, ~$90 for Mobil1 and $10 for a genuine Nissan Oil filter.

I live south of the river in beckenham.

I was thinking about goin to Top Racing but havn't heard much about them.

Xspeed seems to be the most recommend workshop so i might pay them a visit

top racing provide good service and treat customers with respect unlike some other known shops.

plenty of people will recomend them on here

$217 oil change is a big big rip off, surely pulling a filter off and undoing a sump plug isnt worth $130, its about a 15-20 min job max. i suppose its good value if u got a 15L sump :P

Top racing really know their work.

Every workshop has their pros and cons. But put it this way I'm yet to find a performance shop that stand behind their tune an ensure their work. The only other place I feel can do this would be Top racing after having dealt with 2 very well known performace shops when it comes to tuning the power FC D-Jettro, both their service and tune were very very poor indeed espically after "paying for what I got".

Hi all again

I think i will go to Top Racing. I gave them a call and were really helpfull.

Just have to wait till i get PFC and then im booking it in.

I will ask about a leakdown test to see what condition the engine is in to.

Once again thanks for all of the advice and recommendations.

    • AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.
    • Heys guys I got a r32 gtst speedo is out by 10kph seems the faster I go the more it be out  just seeing if anyone else had to problem and knows how to fix it 
    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
