did you have impressive resaults?

Nothing super impressive. Improvement though nevertheless. Standard RB26DETT except pods and exhaust, with powerfc now getting just under 220 kw at all 4 wheels.

Main reason for getting it done was to sort out the engine cutting out under boost which it was doing after coming back from another workshop where it had the factory ECU tuned........ :rolleyes:

But yeah, good experience with it, the only drama was waiting a bit longer than expected for the pfc to arrive, but saying that due to their rareness etc. waiting 5 days in the end wasn't so bad. :(

I have to say that all the above mentioned workshops are all pretty good, however in saying that you will always find one bad experience for every good one. Every workshop gets equal amounts of praise and bagging. I have to say tho, all these guys mentioned are all pretty good in my eyes.
I have heard of a few really bad experiences with Allstar and as a result i wouldnt let them tune my moped (not that i have one)

My point exactlly... (Not flaming you in any way 'Series 5' just saying thats my point)

My 2 cents, Allstar give great value and quality for price... I have used Richard to tun my pfc and for the money I could not be happier, that said Matt Spry has also had a crack at my pfc and he is equally impressive... Horses for courses... Richard is 5km down the road for me as where Matt is over 150km's...

Once again, like I said for every good experience you hear you will find a bad one... Its important to realise to make your own mind up about people and their attitudes and or services offered... Go and see a workshop with yoru own eyes and talk to the owner or managers and see for yourself how helpful they are and have a good look around the shop at the type of cars they are working on and that should give you a good idea of what they can do...

IE. You would not take you Moped to a performance dealer, you would go to a performance shop like the ones mentioned in this thread.

    • From experience, it will come back to bite you haha.
    • Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
    • I said "Matlab clone". I could throw one onto one of my linux VMs. Probably only take 10 or 20 hours to sort out the dependencies, relearn how to use it, etc etc.
    • Hi all, got myself a 400R end of last year. Few tasteful mods done so far. Love the thing. Has anyone got any suggestions for sourcing bodykit parts for them over here???
    • Unplug the thermofans and let it idle... Watch the temp gauge as it all goes up... Record the values. And done.
