Hey as topic says I'm unsure of where to take my R34 GT-T for general services and 100k service

I know RE customs are good but its abit of a drive for me so I was wondering between Revzone and Racepace which of the two would you recommend or your personal experiences with them.

Thank you

Pretty easy choice IMO.

Simply plug the business names into the search - i bet you Racepace comes up 100 times for every one of Revzone. That is not to say Revzone are not a good business of course.

Just that it's a pretty clear decision who to take it too based on sheer volume of happy customers

I used to take my car to RevZone - the guys there know heaps about skylines (justin has a modified gtr). Only reason why I stopped going there, was because Im now getting my car looked after DMD Tuning at pakenham (and I work near there - and soon living in paky too) and revzone was just a bit too far for me. But yeah, speak to justin or craig -they both know their stuff.

But as Ash said - Racepace is very famous for skylines - and their knowledge of the cars is second to none.

I guess it comes down to your research for price etc.

If you want to talk to Dave @ DMD Tuning re service/price etc - pm me and I will give you his contact details.

Either or wouldn't matter for a service. I go to revzone as they are just down the road plus my cousin works there. Get a quote, you might be surprised by the price difference. For something more major like an engine rebuild, i would go to racepace as they as the RB experts in my opinion.

Racepace are farkin miles from my place... I leave home at 8am, get to racepace at 9am, drop car off, talk shit for a while, walk to Boronia train station (or get driven, thanks Chris!) catch train to Richmond station, change lines and catch train to Balaclava station, walk to work... get to work about 11.30am... that's a 3.5 hour round trip if I'm lucky...

... but I don't care... nobody else touches the car! me included;) lol

    • Yeah, you want the IACV to be running at around 30 "units", variously called "steps" or "duty cycle" depending on the person. That gives it room to go lower if need be and higher ditto.
    • Ah right that makes sense.
    • The RPM is just a target, the ECU will adjust things to try and hit that target but it's by no means guaranteed. If the IACV duty cycle is 0 or something like that and it's actually closing up fully then the idle is as low as it can physically go without reducing ignition timing. The problem can be something like the cold start valve in the IACV not closing fully, worn throttle shaft seals, torn rubber diaphragm in the brake booster allowing unmetered air, etc. 
    • Apexi, though I'm not comfortable with setting the idle, knowing me I'll f**k it up lol.
    • What ECU is on your car @silviaz? You can just change the idle target table yourself and the IACV duty cycle. Noting that if you play around with the screw you'll also need to revisit the idle base duty table as you will end up offsetting the lot. Another reason why DBW is superior, there's less mucking about.
