Does anyone have anything to say about GAS Motorsports?

Am thinking of going and having a chat to Joe about looking after the car as the workshop we go to now has become ridiculously busy and almost impossible to get into or talk to unless you drive down there which for me is a major issue.

Having seen most of GAS or Rotormasters cars at the drag strip it appears their cars are pretty reliable and given his previous dyno records and drag strip times they know how to make reliable power with most engines and ECU's.

As with all workshops there is always the good, the bad and the ugly so i am interested to hear peoples thoughts on them

One of my mates previously worked there, very well set up place and the cars that were in the shop all of the work on the cars looked to be of hi standards as well.

I haven't actually dealt with them tho so I can't comment on what that side of the business is like

Who is the old/current shop

Would prefer not to name the shop we currently use as they dont really deserve to be hated on what so ever. They know their stuff but i just hate having to make bookings a month in advance and not being able to speak to them over the phone etc I am just a difficult customer, i will never deny that.

I know the quality of their work should be priority, but growing up in customer service i also think spending some time with your customers and returning calls is quite important as well and given Joe rang me at 8pm to chat about turbo's i am curious to know more about them.

Joe is also very very very switched on when it comes to drag racing and thats something that is quite good to have given we want to drag race the car more than we have previously

Thanks for the comments so far, keep them coming

Spoke to Joe today and its not good :( Joe doesnt tune Links, not that he doesnt like them, he just prefers to stick to what he does best which kinda sucks,

Charlie, as above its a Link G4 we have. Its been a long time since the cars been on the road and has a few tiny things to sort but it wont be long and we will hopefully need a roll cage and a parachute ;)

      He made that comment in my thread - In my case the vents ARE to lower engine heat, when the car is not moving, which is the only scenario I have heat problems with the aircon on, sitting in traffic, on 40C+ days. I can't imagine a scenario that this NC needs any at this point in time. I do not know if it will actually make my cooling when the car is MOVING worse, and I sincerely hope that won't be the case. If it does, well, um, f**k.

      Nice, thanks. Thats why I was asking, there'd been a fair bit of discussion in the E90 world about vents and where it makes sense to put one (ie, over the filters is not great as that is inline or slightly behind the struts and in higher pressure area). I struggle with air flow and pressures. It sill weirds me out that a radiator in the boot can work.

      Neither really Vents, when located in the right place, will lower the engine bay "pressure", as air has a path to escape, thus lowering the engine bay pressure, thus.....improving the efficiency on the coolant stack (read: IC, condenser, radiator) This is why the Blits vented bonnet on my 33 worked so well, the vent was in the front 1/3 of the bonnet, which put it right after the radiator  If the vents are to far back toward the windscreen, which is a high pressure zone, it can actually force air into the engine bay, causing higher pressure and effectively loosing efficiency on the cooling stack, like the fab of raising the rear of the bonnet, which does allow heat to escape, but only when the car isn't moving  There's heaps of cool "fluid dynamics" info out there, but, I'll attach a video of a 'Merican joint that focuses on "Miatas" as I found it when looking into vents for mine, they explain it way better than me

      Poor bleeding. That stupid damping loop in the plumbing that should be completely replaced with a braided hose. Just the first 2 that come to mind.

      Forgive the potentially silly question but are the vents for bay temps? I've been toying with how to reduce my bay temps because man, it gets HOT in there and a small subtle vent somewhere I think might help. Or, maybe they're to assist with just the intake temps?
