Here is a link to a video of the machine at work.

5 Axis Headport Video

It is interesting (for a non industry person) to see the bit being held still while the whole head is rotated. From memory there was a thread about this going back 2 or so years ago but nothing came out of it.

So i haven't seen any local information on who offers this in Australia. However, if the gossip is correct then Trick and Mansweto in Sydney may be the people to speak to about this.

Kostecki engine centre in Perth do cnc porting - unfortunately no programs for jap stuff so I am told.

I got quoted $3,300 for my sr20 head through someone my tuner knows on the eastern states. He mentioned they do the v8 supercar stuff. However, it took months to get the quote by which time I had the head hand ported.

Performance Wholesale has 3 x 5-Axis Deckel Maho CNC machines along with 2 x Newen Epoc Contour Machines for bowl/seat work and also Renishaw Digitizing Machine. Not to mention Flow Bench, Cam Doctor, Digital Valve Spring Tester, Spintron machine etc etc. I'm pretty sure they are booked months in advance for work.
