Anyone tried using Tokyo Motorsport in Welshpool for a tune.

Please let me know what you thought of their service

Any news on how your tune went ?

im interested to know...

Jamie, Brett, Phil and Justin all do a killer job as ive worked with all of them and I can back what they do as i used to work there !

the quality of the tunes is top notch and if you think they are expensive then whats your engine worth at the end of the day ?

Id say it would be a bit more then $1700.

And if it wasnt just a basic retune then half of the posts in this thread are useless as the hours that go into dailing in cams (CORRECTLY) and tuning for early boost delivery are more then just a couple of hours labour !!

1700 for retune?

For the 34 to get it's PFC installed and a good tune i'm looking at 500-600 or so...

I think the 34 atm get's like... 400km or so to a tank?

Don't be surprised if it comes back a couple of hundred more than they quoted you though.

Yeah.. but that STILL doesn't add up to 1700 :P

Haha, my $600 install and tune of my Link G4 came back to $1650... Miiiiiiiiiiiight have required the lower intake manifold to be changed at the same time though :P

Back to the original thread

I ended up getting Allstar do my tune like some of you guys recommended

$450 and seems good tune (only picked up today)

I got 250kw at the wheels with standard injectors and AFM

Seems nice and smooth all the way thru the rev range

They said with injectors should get 300kw + but at the moment am happy with a 400HP motor!

I am sure Tokyo M would have done a great job as they seem very professional,

and pretty sur it would not have come to $1700.

I think they were covering themselves for the worst possible outcome.

      R34 Diff oil

      By Duncan · Posted

      Only thing I'd add...is on recommendation from a good diff shop, I've used mineral oil in my diff including the race car for years. The synthetics can be too slippery and glaze the gears

      75W90 GL5 is fine. If you aren't sure about the type get one with LSD additive.

      Short shifter r34

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Because you're effectively rushing the shift and forcing it to go in - with greater leverage against parts that don't _want_ to go together. Short shift = forcing the gear in harder. Also Redline Heavy Shockproof actively says not to use it in anything with Synchros. Well, it says "not recommended" which is basically as far as anyone will ever say in a product statement to "Do not use" Generally the Redline makes the gearbox feel great... until it fails faster. https://www.redlineoil.com/heavy-shockproof

      R34 Diff oil

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      99.9% of them are viscous diffs. The 0.01% are helicals. They were only option-able in the series 2, as well. I have redline heavy shockproof in my helical. It seems... fine? I don't think anyone is ever going to know until something really breaks and at that point I'm not sure anyone will blame the oil. I just chose it because it's extremely heavy duty and my car will see not-road-legal duty for it. I've also had sadness with various diff oils in the past sweating out everywhere and/or other 'fun' things, with clutch diffs. Given you have a 1.5 way on the shelf, I'd not even bother with the diff in the car and just get to tinkering with it. I would spend the $90 on oil toward the labor of someone else putting the diff in if time poor even lol.

      R34 Diff oil

      By drifter17a · Posted

      I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones
