Hyper-Tech done work on my brother in-laws MYO WRX. They were not cheap and did stuff up 2 x AFM and then charged him for each one they broke, he did come to a compromise with the manager and sorted the AFM problem by installing a MOTECH ECU (not at Hyper-Tech) after all that! I was not aware that they no longer deal with the public.

Anyway, my local garage have just quoted me for the compression test anyway ($50) I have been going to him for years (2 doors from my house) and trust him 100% - He mainly deals with Hot Rods not Hot JAP's and has said he will look at it for me and if he's not comfortable with tuning it, will advise me so. I think I will leave it at that for now until it's actually in my hands so I can see what ECU it's using ETC...

Thanks for your help.

RacePace all the way - Ben gave me plenty of advice prior to purchasing my GTR as well as ongoing, even when it did not financially benefit him. I don't even bother getting a quote from him now - i just drop my car off, pick it up and pay him.

So yeah - RacePace or Ice all the way - definitely not HyperTech, i have a million and one reasons why.

I too will recommend race pace. Ben is without doubt "The Man" and knows his stuff. He is not cheap nor expencive and charges what his expertise is worth and when you are talking about such an expensive motor as an RB26 to rebuild I wouldn't take the chance.

      My thermostat had no gasket?

      That would be interested if it's the case as seems like it would make the job a lot messier but subaru sells OEM gaskets so seems it might of had it.

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      Fuel tank is out. Looks pretty bloody good under (ie above) the fuel tank.  Amazing how good the factory e-coat holds up in the hidden areas.  No where near as much body deadener to get rid of as the front but still not looking forward to it!  Shit of a job.  I'm thinking I might grab a needle scaler and give that a go before I attack it with the angle grinder and wire wheel which is how I did the front 2/3's of the car.  Feels good to be working on the car again but who knows how long it will last!  Hopefully I can get it further forward than where it was prior to this last block of work when I decided to go back 10 steps further down the rabbit hole from where i already was! The problem is, I'm realising how hard it will be to repair and paint the bumpers, which cannot be put back on the car, and have a good paint match. There are also areas where it would be VERY hard to hide the new paint where it transitions from old paint. Like this- There is only one way to do that perfectly and I really dont want to have to do what that means I would have to do... 🤦‍♂️

      Pretty sure the factory assembly doesn't have any gasket at all, just RTV.

      Rv37 400r questions

      By elir32 · Posted

      Thought I’d post pics of the packages for those interested. The premium package is #16. Remote start, security with tilt sensor and remote and backup battery, auto fold mirrors and door illumination.    Can post up pics of all the factory options and images from the factory options brochure if people are interested. I have all the dealer books etc for all rv37 models.
