hey guys...my mate has an evo7...he did some mods at home and they are -

Fuel pump

PFC

high flow turbo

Injectors (he will buy and get the tuner to put it in)

high flow exhaust

After all these mods he will want the car tuned properly...i told him about Techsport the evo guy but he said when he called him, they dont tune cars. They send them away to a tuner. That tuner qouted him $1000. He wasnt happy about the price so he was thinking of taking it to RE for $500 with that fitted injectors in the price too. But both of us havn't really heard much good stuff about RE so really would appreciate any other recomendations of where he is better off to give his car for tuning...THANKS!!

Give Rob at CREATD MOTORSPORTS a call, he has the quickest 1.8 litre lancer in Australia, it ran 10.18. He tunes Evo's WRX's GTR's all day long. He knows what he is talking about and he's a great tuner. He has around half a dozen Evo's down there at the moment.

There number is 9357 7663

Call RE Customs and see if Matt Lowth (close mate of mine) is still tuning via them - If he is, he is the guy you want :ermm: Otherwise RE also do tune as well i believe.

Uses the factory ECU and so on so nice and affordable, no drivebility problems.

His own car was making 280awkw before he sold it, one of the fastest street cars i have ever been in :P

just spoke to my mate after he had a word with Rob...he really liked the way Rob spoke and his rates...he is highly thinking of going to that place now..but if there are other good evo tuners please let us know so he can choose his machanic/tuner wisely...THANKS A LOT FOR YOU HELP JOSH!!!

Are they aftermarket or factory ECU tuning?

The factory ECU is 100% tuneable in basically every area. Better than Nistune :P

NAH with a PFC....like mention in the mods he done to the car....the did it all at home so he hasnt seen a machanic yet to work on the car...like me he plans to stick to one guy and before going to anyone, i wanted to get some reconmendations...

The guy at RE must be a great tuner but no offence to him, i personally havnt heard much great things about that place...it might be the other people other than his job causing that...not sure...or we might just know people who had bad experience with them...

All we know is that evo is only going there as the last resort...so please dont feel offended...especially his your mate...sorry :P

Ask Nick his the evo fan boi now

ya i know his got an evo so i am hoping he comments here...but spoke to a lot of evo guys and all say techsport...but they send cars off to get tune unfortunately...and that guy is asking for big money...well if it was me i will be ready to pay that since they are the best but he wasnt happy spending all that with them...you know him...the guy with the black evo...came to nandos with us where we first met....

The guy i mentioned does not work for RE.

He only tunes on their dyno, one of my best mates :P

Personally I'd go with the stock ECU, cheaper cause its free. The EVO factory ECU's are phenominal. You can even setup anti lag.

HAHAHA!!! too late...my mate already bought all the stuff...he got the Apexi PFC...for dirt price....so he might as well get it tuned with it on...

to talk to your best mate, do we call RE and ask for him and ask him if he can tune the car? But doesnt Ray tune the cars there? :P

haha yea i know the guy that evo is sexy:D

It is going to be an animal very soon...just waiting on his new CAT...will take about 4 weeks to come for some reason...than just tune and the car is going to be blowing mine away...lol...

Sell it for a profit then :woot:

Call RE and discuss with them direct, im not sure what the arrangement is at the moment and im not about to give my mates details out etc cause of that.

RE do tune as well. Give em a ring either way if you are interested in it. If not then don't haha :P

^^ I was going to say Techsport, but I saw on an EVO forum saying they are not that good... Kinda mix responses really.

You'd be safe at RE Customs.

they missed that it was in a crash, and it had a bent control arm...............

saying that, my mate loves RE.

    • 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
