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

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
