Someone must have taken the UAS Major service package up, and was the extra $700 thing worth it?

www.uniqueautosprts.com then click "service centre" then "major service".

Has a whole list of things, engine (elf semmi synthetic), check sensors and fault codes, injection cleaner, iridium sparks, compression test, water pump, timing belt, diff, transmission oils ect.... anyway the list is on their.

also is the N1 waterpump worth the extra $$$$, well i'm assuming it will cost extra

To me the initial package doesn't seem too unreasonable, I don't think I would spend the extra $700 though... that's all stuff I'm pretty confident doing myself :rolleyes:

From what I read the N1 water pump has larger but less blade inside it to prevent cavitation at high RPM. The trade off is worse flow at low RPM. If you spend most of your time on the track or driving at a moderate speed it should be OK. If you are in bumper to bumper traffic everyday... I wouldn't recommend it unless you have some masochistic urge to cook your engine :thumbsup:

I'd give the n1 pump a miss (costs more and not really right for a road car). But Ben (head mechanic at UAS) is excellent and very careful and thorough in his work. He built the last race engine in my car and it is going strong

"UAS Professional in-house guard rolling now available for $75.00 per guard."

it was on their website, what does that mean?

When you get wheels that are 11ty" wide and have an offset of -11ty, the tyres will tend to scrub on body work. This can be fixed by rolling your guards.

Rolling guards can be done either professionally to get a good result, or with a breaker bar on your driveway for the ghetto look :D

11ty

well i seem to be getting alot of PM's of NEGATIVE feed back instead of positive feed back about UAS, everything from refusing to fix an oil leak that was aparrently due to not doing a sump bolt up properly to cracking a head gasket that was induced by a tune with Safc2 and the timing wasn't adjusted acordingly... That coupled with my own bad experience with them a while back...

Who else has done a decent 100k log book service and timing belt change, and who was it with? I keep hearing good things about Yavus's team, anyone had it done their?

And yes its just a service, but i want everything done properly on it seeing as the car hasn't been looked after as much as it should have, and that 100k is a pretty important service that can make or break the car.

And i don't mind paying alittle more for a perfect job

Peter Hopkins at ADVAN Performance does a great job. He uses nothing but the best parts and has been tuning skylines for years now, both here and in NZ.

He charges a little bit more than most but after taking my skylines to other places that are cheap and almost destroyed them...

ei: Mercury Motorsport in Queensland thought it would be a great idea to put low impedence injectors in my R33 GTST and then dyno it for 6 hours. (Any of you who know anything about injectors and RB's, will already be shaking your heads).

Nearly fried the comp and the car ran like sh*t until I took it to Peter at ADVAN, he replaced the injectors and tuned the car beautifully.

Highly recommended!

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
