I'm going to BD4s to get my F-CON tuned... basically I have no choice but to go there as they are the only ones in Australia who can tune it :)

I've been in heaps of contact with Tom there and I'm happy to say that he'll give you all the time in the world with questions etc. Very nice guy to deal with.

My tune is on June 22, hope it goes well! Looking close to a $2k bill though :)

Hey thanks for that Stan. BD4s would be good coz i live in the next suburb. Are they considered pricey, do they insist on using HKS stuff or can you supply your own stuff?

Oh and anyone used MRT performance, i know they do amazing stuff with evos - anyone with a skyline use them?

Thanks

I'm supplying all my own gear bar one or two harnesses that I can't get myself. As for the HKS comment, then it's up to interpretation... they are the authorized HKS dealers in Australia so I would assume they'd be trying to push for their items being used :)

I wouldn't say that their pricing is expensive, it's just on par with all the other names out there.

Well according to HKS USA both places are still authorised dealers, but BD4s is also a Pro Dealer, which means they have access to the tuning software for the F-Cons.

I've had a car tuned @ BD4s, they were on the level with me and pretty helpful. But your best bet is to talk to both of them and see who you're happiest with.

Just thougt I might add that Performance Wholesale will direct you to BD4s for all F-CON enquiries... BD4s have access to information on that product that no other place in Australia will have - that's coming from another dealer so I guess it can be taken as true!

Anyone had any experience with either CRD or BD4s in Sydney for a R34? Do they only use expensive brand name stuff or is better to go to small tuner? This would be for minor mods - basically keeping stock turbo.

Anyone use Bankstown Muffler fit as well?

Thanks

What engine management are you using?

Talk to both and use who you are happy with. nNver used CRD, but did use BD4s for a good many years and whilst owning 3 Nissans,

They were a very professional, honest workshop, who did not take short cuts and where good mechanics as well as a good performance workshop.

have found so many performance places arent the best mechanics and only know how to half heartedly throw crap on cars in the hope they go quicker and fingers crossed dont blow up...forget fault finding, servicing etc to get a good reliable car

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
