Chasers Tuning

[rs73]

Hi,

Been a while since i jump on this forum, quite busy lately with

work... now that I'm shopping around for PFC tuning cost

around Melb... got a question...

Has anyone here got their PFC tuned by Chasers before?

Either by Benny or whoever else who works there...

Preferrably input from those RB owners.... but any other

car PFC result is welcome...

Thank.s

Ok, everyone has their favourite tuner. ... and lol everyones tuner is the best:)

The past 2 months, my car on its current tune, with between 15psi and 18psi on a completely std internal engine has done Sprints at Phillip Island, Sandown and Winton, its done a night at the drags, a day at the drifts at Calder and the engine, tune hasnt missed a beat. And its done a hell of a lot of driving with work since they now know its back on the road proper:(

And Sandown was a 36 degree morning where i was running 18psi and 234rwkws...no pinging, car ran STRONG:) Then it rained so the poor engine was having to put up with big rev spikes with wheelspin as its hero driver was trying to punt it in the wet:whackit:

And on the way to Dimboola and back on the weekend was at 440kms when i stopped at Horsham on the way back for fuel, as i wasnt sure if id make Ballarat. So highway driving id get over 500kms per tank, city it gets to about 400kms before the light comes on.

They are the reasons why id be going to Racepace, other may be good, but im comfortable when im at the track and temps start climbing the tune is nice and flexible and can handle hot ambient temps and 103 deg C water temps

103 degrees... pft soft mate.

I agree with Roy - I had my GTR tuned at Racepace and the car doesn't ping, is efficent (as far as it can be) and stood up well at Sandown on the same day as Roy went out... my issues were unrelated to the tune, rather the hot weather and poor cooling.

Yeah I'd have to agree also, you'll pay $$$ but wont have to return time and time again for touch up's. I have also seen very good results from Genisis Racing and I'm sure Bass Junky can confim this, I've seen his dyno sheet and it's smooth as silk.

[Bass Junky]

Yep.

Genesis. Great guy, excellent prices.

He'll be tuning my Poncams when they arrive later this week.

[pinoi_boi_r33]

i'm taking the car to genesis now to find a problem so i'll let u know how i go with them, they seem very friendly and professional. Will probably take the power fc to them when it comes.

[Bass Junky]

What's the problem?

Chasers Tuning is done by Paul, Ex Motec tuner, very good tuner, produced 233rwkw out of a GT28RS on 1bar, fitted to a SR20DET with std bottom end and a set of HKS cams and never ever went over 20 on the knock meter at all during the tuning

[paulr33]

i had mine tuned at chasers. $350. the tune was ok i guess, made a bit more power. massive knock in top of 3rd 4th 5th. over 100 a lot of the times. they dont have a dyno (working yet) so they cant tune it, they just take it to protek to get it tuned and let them do the work. they also lost me keys (no big drama). i had to take it to ice peformance after that to get the knock fixed and have a retune

[paulr33]

just take it to ice performance, never regret it

[Al]

If i had a Pfc i wouldn't take it to anyone but Ben @ Racepace. This judgement is only based on stories/feedback i have heard about various w/shops.

[predator]

hey what ever happened to their gazillion gigawatt car that was meant to be at autosalon? I think i missed it in the list there..

[paulr33]

it was there, plates are GTR-R34. it wasnt put on the dyno or anything as he didn't have any time to work on the car (so he said)

my grammar and spelling sucks tonight

[Al]

Hahahaha.....

The old; "it could easily make 1000awkw, but i ran out of time"

[pinoi_boi_r33]

What's the problem?

in all honesty i do not know thats y i'm taking it there. Whenever the car creeps above .5 bar it spits and bubbles like crazy. I am guessing too wide a gap sparkies or coil packs. or knock sensor or something, hopefully not too serious. I'm praying its not too serious.

That was when Dom from Pro-Tek tuned there cars, they are now all tuned by Paul from Motec

They're just moving into new workshop, dyno won't be in the new place till sometime next week I was told. Quoted good price by them. Didn't talk to Benny/Paul, it's the other guy, Scott who spoke to me on the phone.

It's not about how much time you have, it's about how much dedication you have. Ice worked on my car till 5am on Sat morning and moved the car in at 8:30 in the morning.

And look at the results.

That is dedication...

Sorry to say david they dont put that much effort into everyones car like they do to yours...

[R31Nismoid]

not everyone would pay for them to work on thier car till 5am now would they ?
