Just wondering if anyone has had dealings with classic performance dyno centre in hackam? Saw a lightening yellow c34 with sign writing. As im a stagea owner and looking at getting some work done in the near future (coupled with the whole bright yellow thing) caught my eye.. I usually only use places that are recommended to me and im pretty new to the Nissan (or any modern car really) scene and new to adelaide, im not in the know.. any feedback appreciated :)

Cheers

I haven't used them so i cannot comment but i too am looking for someone in the coming months to do a heap of work on my M35 Stagea.

At this stage i am very tempted to drive interstate as there are tried and tested workshops who have worked on M35's.

R&D Mechanical in Seaford is another option to check out tho mate. I have not used them either but i believe their tow car was a C34 Stagea...

A few mates have used him for tunes with great results and were very happy with his work. Even with dialogistics over the phone with nistune issues he was able to help out.

Speak to elir32 he uses him and would recommend his work to anyone.

My car will need to be tuned sometime during the end of the year and im looking at giving the keys to him,

Some handy info. I liked they had a 4wd dyno at least.. I have a squeaky something under the bonnet, maybe the waterpump..some sort of bearing noise at least.. may as well put a new timing belt on too. These adelaide roads will make certain a suspension replacement sooner than usual..jeeze :P

      Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!

      Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.

      Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.

      Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...

      Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
