OK, I know this is gonna be a common question, but I searched in importing forum, and couldn't find anything of much use, and I figured that most of you guys would have used one workshop or another, so I need some recommendations on these workshops:

JAPANESE SPORTS AUTO

34 091 929 270 PRESTON VIC AUSTRALIA

SEI MOTORS

90 096 964 546 DANDENONG VIC AUSTRALIA

SKYLINE AUSTRALIA PTY LTD

30 097 662 443 DANDENONG VIC AUSTRALIA

PERFORMANCE VEHICLES PTY LTD 2

3 103 540 905 BAYSWATER VIC AUSTRALIA

IMPORTED VEHICLE COMPLIANCE CENTRE

72 109 401 470 CRAIGIEBURN VIC AUSTRALIA

By name alone, skyline australia seems pretty good, anyone dealt with them? Or any of the others?

I'm kind of after people who have personally dealt with these companies. I'm dealing with a stock GTS-4, so there shouldn't be any worries about removing mods or anything.

Anyway, any help would be appreciated.

R32 or R33 or R34?

R32.

this is the car:

I'm more looking for someone to say: I went to XXX and while their price was $, the guy was pretty cool, and I was happy with the result.

If someone sucked, they can PM me.

Also, is SAU sure about the legal ramifications? As far as I am aware, forum boads count as public conversation, which, unlike, say a radio broadcast, is not covered by libel, provided people posting are not representatives of any competing companies.

But, hey, I'm not too concerned about all that, because I understand that the people running this site would rather err on the side of caution, though I would like some feedback, (positive or negative) on the above workshops. If it's negative, please PM me.

Its defamation in a lot of cases. So yes, there certainly are ramifications as SAU is therefore allowing it

Anyway, its not a discussion point, its the rules.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...?act=boardrules

No worries at all.

But it also says that positive feedback is OK, and that negative feedback is tolerated in PM's, which is all I ask for.

So, back to the point, if you've had a car complied by these guys, let me know here if it was good (might be able to help others too) and PM me if it was dodgy.

The list again:

JAPANESE SPORTS AUTO 34 091 929 270 PRESTON VIC AUSTRALIA

SKYLINE AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 30 097 662 443 DANDENONG VIC AUSTRALIA

JAPANESE PERFORMANCE VEHICLES PTY LTD 23 103 540 905 BAYSWATER VIC AUSTRALIA

Thanks to those already helping me, I'll call around monday with quotes, and choose then, at the moment, it's really between Skylines Australia and JPV.

have a search in the vic section. I'm sure that at one stage a few months ago there was talk of a good compliancing workshop, but im not sure which one that was....

I had a look there, but I couldn't find any info that was relevant, they were all R33 compliancers, or under the old system.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
