Workshop/person Recomendation Needed

[rinmak]

Hi Everyone

I have an RB25 sitting here on an engine stand at the moment waiting to be put into an S13. Originally I wasnt going to have any work done to the head besides a set of cams but in the process of removing the turbo I had two studs snap off in the end. Long story but because of this im now considering taking the head off and getting some work done to it.

What I will want done:

- Surface decked

- Intake & exhaust ports ported

- The holes where the two snapped studs were need to be filled, drilled and tapped again.

- Poncams installed

- More than likely some new springs

- Head cleaned (i think they acid dip it right?)

Now ive never had much luck getting quality work done by anyone other than myself and my friends so im a little skeptical about the whole thing. Can anyone here recommend a workshop or even a person in Perth who they know is reliable and does quality work?

Thanks

Those studs can be repaired whilst head is on motor. Personally i wouldn't bother opening a 25 as they are proving themselves reliable stock. At most drop the cams in.

drill the stud, spray with loctite freeze an release, install easy out, remove broken stud, worked for me on the 6 studs that were broken in my 20
