Hi Guys,

I am looking for a good quality/reliable workshop for my GTR. Honesty & decent customer service & communication skills would be great.

Been dicked around by one shop & looking at either Sabbadin or OTR as being closer to home.

Anyone know any other workshops or had experiences with either of these?

Thanks in advance

Yeh, car is at Racepace as we speak! Bit further away than I want but service I have gotten from Chris is spot on. Might just keep going there ;)

      Throws on the FS5R30A in most Nissans of this era are actually quite short and direct compared to any remotely modern BMW with the S6-53 transmission. Those things have throws a mile long with rubbery vague everything. Synchro issues combined with a short shifter is just going to break everything even faster.

      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.

      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
