erd at yatla - halfway between brisbane and gold coast

Use ERD at Yatala for any mechanical work, they can't do tuning however - No dyno.

I use EFI around the corner from ERD. Great guys who do phenomenal work.

EFI did a very good job on mine. Good power, Great response, Well behaved at traffic speeds and good on fuel. Most of the guys in the club use them and every one is happy.

Myself and about 10 of my friends all get our cars tuned at Matty Spry at PITS.

Never had a drama and cars always drive a lot better than they did before.

Another mate has had his RB26/30 tuned by Mark Jacobsen at Godzilla Motorsport and he did a good job also considering the car spends a lot of it's life near or on limiter and never had an issue until it spun a bearing. Going back there once it's rebuilt too for another tune. He runs a Vi-PEC which is Mark's preferred ECU as I understand.

GT Auto Garage has also been highly recommended to me by several people I know that are customers of theirs. I have a HKS F-CON V I have been thinking about running in my current car and they are the only place in QLD that can tune these and seem to have very good results with them.

They are basically the only 3 places I would consider in QLD.

Had a power fc tuned by Matt Spry at PITS a few years back for the rb25 180. It had heaps of running problems going in with a different plenum etc but ran beautifully when I got it back. Power everywhere and perfect manners around town. I could not believe the difference and how nice it was to drive.

Also had Dyson Rotary from near Harbour Town run up a Microtech tune on the same car later with bigger turbo & fuel system after the power fc got stolen :( and that went fairly well too believe it or not. It was a bit more hairy around town and at partial, but the Microtech's are more like that anyway plus it was it was in a more advanced state of tune too so not a fair comparison.

There are actually quite a few good tuners around this area which is lucky...

      There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:

      And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.

      Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.

      I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.
