Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Edited: ah k cool i'll have to give em a call soon

how long does it take to re-tune/remap the ecu??

honestly, it depends on the equipment provided, the availability of the software for that particular hardware, at least a couple of hours to run the calibration and do the actual tune.... my initial tune cost something like $700-800, i honestly cant remember. it was done when i replaced faulty o2 sensors.... has been an absolute JOY to drive... hasnt got the KW numbers to impress dyno whores, but i really love this particular tune. it'll be better in 6 months when i get new cams and turbos, but i'm very happy with the tune. it gives me a perfect balance between performance and reliability... with the emphasis on reliability (as directed by yrs truly)....

I cannot recommend those guys enuff. They have leet skillz.

If you are going for a remap you would have to go to Jeff, he was one of the first in Australia to do remaps and he is definitely one of the best, and as for cost he'll be around the $500 mark but every tune is slightly different, and touch up tunes are a fifth of that

If you want proof of his work he was the one that kept this standard RB20 together when it was making 370rwkw.

EDIT!!

His number is; 0434637357

RANT #1

Just had a meeting with one of my admin staff and gave her an official warning today. Pull your socks up or walk. I been doing more drafting work for the office and need to hand over some of the bookkeeping tasks, but she's f**king it up and blaming the system not working. Its been working for the last 9 years bitch!!! And being the office manager and having built this office ground up 9 years ago, I take that as an insult from someone with no qualifications/diploma/degree. She had a whinge to the #1 boss yesterday and he spoke with me yesterday arvo. He knows there is nothing wrong with the system we use, but rather the user (her). We both agreed she needed to be warned. This is not the first time she's messed up. She's been verbally warned a few times over the last year. She's even got a bit of a rude attitude on the phone at reception. When you're dealing with lawyers and Councils and Government departments as much as we do, you can't be rude to them. (she talks to them like they're telemarketers)

I've gone and hired and started training another admin staff member in the bookkeeping side of the office. She's obviously noticed that and sees her as a threat. So what. The new trainee bookkeeper will be taking over her jobs to do with the financial side of the office and she'll be limited back to general office typing and filing. Its my job as the manager to allocate the best resources anyway, so thats what I'm doing.

Crazy John are idiots.

Vodafone are bigger idiots.

Got sick of Crazy John and sent to Vodafone because all I hear are good things about them (mostly). so I sign up and transfer my existing number over. Nothing. Phone's not working.

I've been without a working phone for a week now. They were supposed to "port" my existing number over onto the new SIM card and f**ked it up. I rang over a dozen times in the last week to get it resolved, but nearly everytime I was put thru to customer service I was put on hold then the given the 'hang up' tone as the line was disconnected about 4-5 times. The 4 or so times I did get thru I was firstly reassured the problem would be resolved in 3 hours if I turned my phone off. Nope.

Finally called yesterday and gave them a mouthful. Immediately asked for someone who's native language is English. Explained it to them again and informed them that if they hung up on me again, accidentally or otherwise, I'd take my business elsewhere. I've been without a working phone for a week and I need my number for work. I can't send/received messages or calls. Told the line again about something f**ked up during "porting" my number and the techs are trying to fix it. Said it could take a few days. I told them that was unacceptable, I want to speak with the customer service manager. Put onto their supervisor, said "no" I want their manager. Spoke to the manager and explained the situation and how unimpressed I was. Said I didn't care to be treated on the same level as pimple faced teens who desperately want to text their stupid boyfriends ... my phone is required for me to make a living, as well as social reasons. Informed I would now be treated as a priority.

Finally, my phone is working again today. Now I gotta catch up on work. :D

      Dry sump? Is that like where you don't put oil in, and leave the car parked in the garage because it's worth so much now and is like a beautiful museum piece? 😛

      [ACT] Nissan Fuga Y50 VQ35HR 2009

      By Zveruga · Posted

      Nissan Fuga Y50 2009 VQ35HR 313 hp / 230 kW RWD Also sold as Infiniti M overseas. Performance sedan built on the same chassis as Skyline V36 or Infiniti FX. Great colour with a fantastic velour interior. Very quiet and fast car (<6s 0-100), but can also be very economical for performance (long-term average consumption 11/100 km) I imported it five years ago, and it was well looked after. It has a full service history and a balance of ACT rego. There are no finance or PPSR issues with the car. Has all the features you'd expect from a luxury car. ABS brakes Stability control Traction control Dual-zone climate control Power and memory front seats and steering column Power passenger ottoman Smart key access Push button start 2 parking cameras Steering wheel audio controls Adaptive radar cruise control AFS aiming headlights Xenon HID headlights Security system Original Nissan remote start system Two original keys Dual-channel dashcam Blackvue 750 with PowerMagicPro for battery-aware parking recording Regularly serviced with a lot of major items done: Full new original Nissan suspension shocks throughout Performance CSF radiator Recent tyres, less than 10k on them New drive belt New bonnet struts Brakes recently done The car comes with a fully converted AV system with Australian GPS maps, DVD, and radio ($2k job). I really love this car, but I have too many cars and too many Nissans in the family, so unfortunately, I need to sell it. Priced at $18500 The car can be seen in Curtin. Thank you for your attention.

      JDM R35 Bought at Japanese Auction

      By 70RTY · Posted

      Here are a few photos.  The car is auction grade 4.5B and a genuine 1 owner car, as far as I can tell...  It has a full service history with only 31,000km in it.  I'd love to put a midpipe and tune on it but I am thinking that I'll retain its originality.

      JDM R35 Bought at Japanese Auction

      I can be grumpy!  After owning one of the first GTRs in the country, I was bitten by the nostalgia bug and started the hunt for a GTR again.  While I could have bought a car locally, I wanted to experience the search for a car in Japan and bidding at auction.  The above videos document my experience to date and hope forum members find them interesting and informative.  I was after a low mileage, completely stock car in the launch colour and am pretty stoked with what I got!
