Steve Posted April 5, 2004 Author Share Posted April 5, 2004 and what about a bad batch of fuel, or a fouled spark plug? also, at the end of the day, how do you prove you didnt thrash it. Once you start modifying a car, all bets are off - would be nice if one day they could build and engine that was indistructable and could make as much power as you want - then again, I would like to win lotto too. I wonder which will happen first:) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/37704-eoi-signals-top-tuner-to-tune-here-in-adeliade/page/4/#findComment-761450 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris32 Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Been interesting to read everyone's thoughts on this subjects Personally, I believe you get what you pay for - that goes for anything It would be very interesting to see the guy from Signal have a go at tuning some of the cars on the forum. I am sure that there are things to learn from him, but lets not forget, he is only trying to achieve the same thing anyone who tunes a programmable computer - a safe and powerful tune So it will be very interesting to see the results, as they say, results speak louder than words At the end of the day, you have to trust the person put in charge of tuning YOUR car. Like all of us here, everyone has done there research, and we all know (or should know) the good and the not so good tuners out there. I trusted my car with Tilbrooks when Martin was there, he did my tune on my car - it has been running at 200rwkw on a 100,000+km old engine for almost 18 months, not a problem So I reckon it will be great to see what the guy from Signal can do, and hopefully he produces a good result. There is no reason why he won't, as he has had much experience with these type of cars Will be interesting to see the results Chris Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/37704-eoi-signals-top-tuner-to-tune-here-in-adeliade/page/4/#findComment-761706 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Donnon Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 There are some good Club PSi people. Ben that bought GTs old car is a nice fella, as is that Tein bloke.

autObarn Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 This post is getting around. Pls see attached..http://www.clubpsi.org/forum/forum_posts.a...p?TID=1092&PN=1 I was seriously considering becoming a major sponsor of PSI events and the club but i have had enough of immature slanderous people with no thought for the ongoing repercussions of such posts, not just on the people involved but the whole scene in general. i speak for many business owners and people involved in promoting the import scene when i say that some of these keyboard warriors will **** the scene for everyone, there is already a shortage of people willing or able to competently work on, supply and help import owner drivers. (D1*GARAGE is bringing SIGNAL over for your/our benefit not their own they dont make shit out of it trust me i know) i fight with suppliers locally and nationally to include south australia in events and to help promote our scene to peolpe overseas (that supply local business) so that we can gurantee its growth, but this continued bickering on forums has resulted in a stigma, where all import owners are branded tightarse whinging jerks who have nothing better to do than bad mouth each other behind their backs. if it continues less and less business will cater for us import drivers and in turn less importers will bring in parts new and used and prices for everything will skyrocket, people will be stuck buying second hand shit from dodgy backyard holes offering driveway warranties, none of which benefits anyone. I feel sorry for people such as Ben, TN and various others who genuinely support and promote the PSI club and get it involved in important events and then to have members/people from the inside continually drag it back down with jealous pre-school behaviour. Remeber if it was not for many of those (wheteher you like them or not) slagged off in the PSI post there probally would be much less of a import scene.

skipppy Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Most shops who sell used jap parts are a rip of with changing prices depending on who you are and who you know. Expecting top prices for bits that are like 5-10 yrs old with no warranty, with the usual you broke it doing this or installed it wrong. Well shit sorry i didnt get a box or instructions. for %^$ sake!!!!!! Autobarn - Id be carefull with wot say since most of these whinging jerks are your customers. And ya its great to see these shops sponsering events for people to pretty well trash there cars, why wouldnt you its a good money spinner. I would just watch who you support cause it could have bad effects on your business. Where is tuning school aswell? Regency Tafe??

N/A® Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Trent, You mentioned the tuning will be at D1 Garage using dynojet from Willall Racing. Will Signal be tuning Keirs Drag GTR too? Wonder what they would redo on the current tuning by Mike. I know Mike would love to see what changes if any they would do a map... With mike, im sure there isnt much changes to be made.

Erin Skippy, where else are you gonna gets parts from? second hand shops are all about supply and demand and price is set accordingly, for sure some place ask to much but if its the only place that has it that the price that its worth. i did not call you or my customers whinging jerks, my statement simply portrayed an opinion of import owners (owners,which includes myself having owned a soarer, series six and a 180sx and daily driver of a GTR) in general by the majority of other genres and major motorsport sponsors. we have been trying to lift the profile of the scene and portray a more professional enthusiastic image we can all benefit from. hence our ties with TOYO, EXEDY JAPAN, SIGNAL, BLITZ, HKS and soon TRUST japan. This is for your and my benefit, those who see fit to belittle those heavily involved in promoting imports such as Martin Donnon (HPI MAG, ZOOM, SPEED and drift judge etc etc) and other SA business's will see them leave and the scene will slip back into obscurity.
