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!

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.

      Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
