He's not really near Alexandria, but I can recommend Mark out at MRC Performance at Castle Hill. Fair prices, no B.S, generally nice guy. He built/services my mates 180, it's pretty neat/tough & he is pretty fussy with who touches his car.

I just re-entered the world of Skyline ownership myself, and Mark will be looking after it too.

His site is:

http://www.mrcdyno.com.au/

search function is there to be used.

Topic covered 11ty times.

also, if you want a cheap place, you'll end up spending more as thats what it is...cheap!

unigroup in Toongabbie/7 hills is where Id take it

If i wanted a mechanic 3 hours drive i would have used the search tool. I specifically put Alexandria because i wanted some places around Alexandria. But thanks for your recommendation, ill give em a call.

theres nothing really near alexandria whos got a name for skylines so you'll have to travel if you want it done by someone who isn't learning on your car.

I recomend both Envy and Unigroup, envy is my choice if i had to choose, and nowhere in sydney is 3 hours drive away from anywhere in sydney even in peak hour lol. Took my car to unigroup and he doesn't try and sell you everything under the sun when you service with him, he gives his advice and his 2cents worth, but he doesnt pressure you if its not something that doesn't have to be done if you understand what i'm trying to say??? Basically he doesn't try to upsell you and change things "incase" they were to break in the future unless there is reason behind it.

Tunehouse in Marrickville is pretty close to you. Thats where i take my car and i highly recommend them, they definitely wont be "learning" on your car. High Performance Imports gave them "best dyno cell/workshop in australia" in their 2009 yearbook. You can be the judge.

9557-4000 or http://www.tunehouse.com.au/

actually i'm wrong, i forgot about tunehouse, they the only place within like 15km or more radius of you that is decent, but from what ive heard there are just as many positive feedback as there are negative feedback,

Brookvale and unigroup tend to have only positive feedback and ive never heard anything negative about either at all...

    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
