  1. No one interested in these parts? EUG
  2. to be honest is nothing wrong with it. The worst think is one stud missing on the air side. Will not fit on straight replacement. Please consider you need an external wastegate!!!! Just an old style Garrett turbo, non ballbearing. Cheers, EUGEN

  4. Nic, A pic might help.....just a suggestion....
  5. Thanks Ethan, will do....
  6. HUH...what did I do? I hope I did not upset some people but I will try to he as honest as I can. I will reply to every person which commented on my results. 1. ABO BOB I know Mark at Hills Motorsports. He started me up in mods. He installed me an intercooler and a clutch. He gave me the Rolls Royce of the intercoolers, Mick's metalcraft with his piping. It was like $2400 installed (just the intercooler and piping) about 3-4 years back. It suppose to be drive in drive out job. My car sited there for 3 weeks and eventualy got it back. He done dyna adjustment for installing an intercooler and a turbine booster. Came out 160kw. I still have all paperwork if you wanna see. Pipes he done look like crap, now I bined the lot and sold the intercooler on this site for $200.00. I was lucky, some one bought it. Check my postings. I called him again in several occasions but he does not bother to return calls. he could be a genious, I don't know but what is good if he does not keep his commitments? Do you need a dyna check for an intercooler install? 2. James, I am glad you are Yavuz advocate. Yes is true the turbo has been changed, I am still not convinced that the turbo had to go as my car launch exactly the same like on Yavuz's diagram. The work done at Unigroup was good quality just was not finished. Yavuz spent hours and hours on my wastegate. His theory was that my wastegate was opening on high RPM letting the gases out. Probably he was right. UAS just opened my wastegate, clean the carbon deposits inside and reassembly the wastegate. BTW we are talking about an HKS wastegate here ($800 wastegate) not a cheap by the dozen one. Yavuz's work was good but he failed to identify lots of things wrong with my car like during his tuning my mainfold start to leak, series 1 bolts are not strong enough on that sort of power. He did not check other people work just the work he did. Tuning is a package, all have to be in unison. SAU took mainfold off and replaced all studs and properly secured mainfold. So as a conclusion here Yavuz's limitation was not the power I was asking, it was his mechanical abilities. As a tuner he is brilliant. 3. kennedy Hmm I am sad to hear your experience at UAS. I had my car done there after the fire. They do not charge 120/hour, their standard rate is $95.00 and whatever you say I will not believe it. Tim, John, Ben all of them make me feel there like home. I was recommended there by Luke and all was exactly like he said. I personally will not look any further than them. It is not expensive what I payed there, it is expensive because most of the jobs they have done, I already payed like ABO BOB said at doggy mechanics. I shared my experience with you guys hopping you do not have to have same experience like me. My conclusion is that a tuner has to be first a good mechanic. It is like before you run you have to learn to walk. Please guys remember every car offers a different scenario and has its own personality. The tuner brings all this in unison, like a conducter Please let me apologize if my posting upset anyone.... Cheers, EUG. BTW Abo Bob, my car runs now like a swiss ...... watch. All I have to do is enjoy!!!!!
  7. Hi everybody, I went yesterday at Ian Luff Motivation fist driving course. It is called Drive to Survive. It was pretty good considering everything they spoke about there I never heard before. It is much more different than what your instructor thought you when you learn to drive. There was a series of exercises which teach you how to stop your car in en emergency. Maybe this will save you from a major crash, save your precious SKYLINE or eventually your life (if you put any price on it) First course is $285.00 and if you book it on the web you get $10.00 off After this I am going to the next, stage 2 which teach you to deal with car slipping. Would be good to do this in a controlled environment without the big BANG. Maybe when in such situation on the road you know what to do. Stage 3, Performance driving will also give you a CAMS license. You can jump form stage one to stage 3 but stage one is a must!!!! Here everybody the link http://www.ianluff.com.au/index.asp?pageid=1 , go check it out. Cheers, EUG.
  8. You are right, who can not accept the loss has to drive a lovely standard comodore SS hahahahaha. Eventualy he can order with an excess S on the nametag. EUG.
  9. Lucky you....I guess
  10. Hi all, I read carefully all the comments and I would like to share with you my story. I own an 1993 R33 GTS-t and after 2-3 years I decided to do some mods. When I start the mods I joined SAU and read different articles and different posts. I done pretty much everything you can do to my car: POWER FC, Manifold, injectors, ignition coils, intercooler, fuel pump, etc etc. Bought lots and lots of parts on e-bay and here on traders. I needed an tuner and from our forum I picked up Yavuz, Unigroup. I went there told him what I want and got a quote. Sounded all pretty good so the work started. As you see was more than a ..."basic tune". We hit lots of walls, and up to 200kw was OK but I did not get the really big numbers. I wanted something between 270-300kw at the wheel. I spend twice the amount I was quoted in labour and tune but the result was still not there. Here is a curve of the best tune I achieved at UNIGROUP. Yavuz found a reason for everything but I was not looking for problems, I was looking for solutions. MY WASTEGATE WAS FAULTY and he refused to spend more time on it. I went back a couple of times, charged me some more but performances did nto change. Please look at my curve, up to 220kw, all power came quick than more RPM's meant flatter curve. Engine did not GOOOOO. So I told to myself I reached Yavuz's limitations. I started all over as my car is just a weekend car so, I could afford to do it. Head came off, reconditioned, TOMEI cam shafts, changed intercooler (HKS) replaced my beloved Mick metalcraft, Plazmaman plenum, changed flow in engine, start looking like a GTR. Internals still standard on engine. My bad decision was that I found a mechanic that done it in his backyard and the quality of his work was really poor and even $10.00 if I payed was a total waste of money. I took this car to John at Unique (UAS). I told him my story and .... after 4 weeks of fixing every little problem I had could go on the dyna. You guys should see what checks are done there before your car goes on dyna and what checks you get from Yavuz, than you can tell the difference. True my bill was fat, but everything was done before had to be redone. Bolts on my manifold had to be replaced as too weak for new manifold, they start breaking. Lots and lots of other problems have been identified and fixed. Even my engine mount was broken and replaced and properly secured. Fixing my wastegate was not a problem, was just a little something for Richard to fix. I told John I will not pay if there are no performance improvements When car went on Dyna I got a call from Ben and asked me how much power I want. He said that he can give me easily 300+. I stopped at the modest 270kw at the wheel which I think is more than enough for my little GTS-t. When you take your car to tune be prepared for other problems to be identified which no other mechanic will tell you about so you do not know about. When car was finished I went and show it to Yavuz and he did not have much to comment on it. The conclusion is that if your car is not mechanicaly 100% before going on the DYNA, engine will not perform, as simple is that. I stop my story here and if there are any people interested to find more details please feel free to message me. NOW MY CAR IS DONE....it's left just to learn to drive it ...properly. I GOT A DRAGON AND I AM NOT AFRAID TO USE IT. Cheers, EUG.
