yes i have searched, workshops mentioned were:

hills motosport - alot of negative feedback

hitman - rung him and he said he 'only really deals with high end ecu's (which i found very confusing as microtech is one of the ecu's displayed on his website)

J.E.M - seem to have a good rep, anyone have contact info?

croydon - had a bad exp with them

looking to get a microtech LT12 installed/tuned in a r33 gtst. preferrably around northern beaches/central coast area, but not essential. would just prefer not to travel to a place where it takes 2-3 hours in public transport to get back to crows nest :domokun:

finally, does anyone nkow if i'll have to purchase the microtech coils or will my splitfires be ok?

cheers :thanks:

Hi Mate

Try Adam at TM Autosports Tuggerah if your willing to go Central Coast, he just tuned my GTR in the last few weeks and I was very happy with it. He has a fair bit of experience with Microtech as well as Skylines. I find him to be very honest and straight forward. They close this Friday, and reopen on the 7th January though.. They also have a loan car option i think if ya need to leave your car there.

link doesn't work :laugh:

Blue_GTR - cheers for that. i'm heading up there on friday anyway, so might pop in and speak to them :)

anyone else? :cheers:

thanks for everyone's input, much appreciated :cheers:

talked my regular mechanic today (northern beaches performance) and he recommmended mick's motorsport, who trent has been dealing with for years. and he could install the parts needed (high flow turbo/440cc injectors/gtr fuel pump/LT12 etc) and get a decent price. but i can't find any real feedback on sau about them.

all the other workshops mentioned seem up to par. i'll get on the blower, do some more research and then make a decision.

i'll be sure to post up the results in this thread and the rb25 dyno thread :)

cheers :laugh:

does the microtech have closed loop running yet? If not don't use it on a road car it will have poor fuel economy

agree, microtech is a WOT rotary ECU.

use the right tool for the right job, ive seen R33 GTS-t's on microtech's before...its not pretty!

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
