Agreed about the clutch. For an Extreme HD Organic, I was charged $650 SUPPLIED AND FITTED by boostworx!!

Even with the ceramic clutch, it should only a couple of hundred more, so say $900 at worst? $1400 is a MAJOR rip off.

Thanks for that Steve.

Do you have the number for Brad Fox?

I think that if they find anything with my car after the oil pressure check I might take it somewhere else to get it fixed if there is something wrong. I get the feeling that Mildren charge like wounded bulls.

umm, thats supplied and fitted im talking.

My clutch was $360, install $240 for labour, and $60 for flywheel machining. So if you supply your own clutch, install/flywheel machine should be about the same.

EDIT:

Just re-read your post, $490 for clutch alone, would make it $790 installed by Boostworx for 33 GTSt :(

Well got my car back today from the oil pressure test and all is fine thank god. They reckon that it is just the sender on the gauge which maybe faulty. Charged me 88 bucks for doing the test. They tested the car when it was both hot and cold. Cold tested 100 psi and hot was 80 psi.

you could have spent 90 bucks on an aftermarket oil gauge and know what your real oil pressure is ALL the time :D

Mildrens have a good name behind then, first hand though i wouldnt know. I highly reccomend Boostworx at Panorama though, Sean has a good name and i recon anyone on this forum would agree with me. Im booked in in a couple of weeks for a full dyno tune and cant wait!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.

      I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...

      Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.

      Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.
