I've heard through the grapevine that Jake's Performance is closing down and he's going back to working from home.... anyone know if this is true?

I thought he was meant to be doing fairly well for himself?

Best place for full body works?

Fibreglassing

Spraypainting

Im not after a straight colour either, doin a bit of fansy work..

Where do you all think is the best place for this kinda stuff, without being ripped off or a bodge job

Thanx.

last time i wasd out there, he had f**kall room in the workshop, just full of cars, figured that would mean business was good?

I'm looking at getting a PFC+Boost Controller and Fuel Pump installed, as well as getting a car tuned for it, just curious of the choices i have (maybe someone should update the original post with a list of places in Canberra to get things done at, rather than having to trapse through a 16 page thread :O

Its in Queanbeyan on Lanyon Drive (the road that runs from Monaro Highway into Queanbeyan past Jerrabomberra). Its at the Caltex service station.

ta, i just got a quote for PFC, Apexi Boost controller, Bosch 040 pump installation and Tuning (of the car) for ~870 all up.

not sure if its a good deal or not, but it means everything is done, so it would make me happy.

Just had my car detailed at Detail FX and it is looking 10x better than it did before. If your car's paint is looking a little worse for wear or you just want a new wax job drop in and have a chat Justin or Rob. They also gave me very useful information on what products to use to maintain the colour/gloss.

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
