Anyone Got Anything Done By Rotech Or Fueltech?


Recommended Posts

Hey lads, im looking at getting my new boost controller installed and tuned by ROTECH in Devonport...

anyone ever had these guys do anything to their car?

what are they like? reliable? dodgy?

If not who is a good tuner that i can go to to install and tune my new boost controller...?

im puting it on an R33 gtst? does anyone sort of specialise in them?

anyone know of a good tuner in launny?

Im thinking Chris Colgrave or Fueltech... how about these guys?

what sort of boost controler is it? do you know anyone that could put it in (like back yarder) i have instaled mine myself althoe i didnt realy tune it myself but they arent that hard just pretty time consuming.

any of the places you have listed will charge like $70 per hour at least so it will cost a bit to get it put in. but if you like drive in drive away service than get someone to do it. if you like a bit of hands on im sure somone (or myself) may be able to lend a hand, if you want to go down this road search the how to forums as they will tell you were and what wires and vac lines to tap into.

hope that helps

Rotech are rotary guys arnt they?

yeah rotech do rotarys but they also do lots of other mods too especially on r32's ive heard...

apparently they are quite good and laurie (the boss) is a bit of a guru...

thats ok i wasnt sure what you did/ didnt know. im pretty hesident to toutch other peoples cars out side of work because if the slightest thing goes wrong... well you know

yeah thast true man, i prefer other people who are insured against that sort of thing to do it, becuase if they stuff it up you can recover costs.

if you do it urself and stuff it up... well your up shit creek

I get fueltech to do all my work, pete will sort you out....tell him Taz sent you....I have the yellow R33 in there at the moment!

cheers man, so if i say hey.... taz sent me and said you would look after me... he will know you and will actually hook me up?

Beef

just say I sent you his way . you should get looked after hopfully!

a boost controller shouldn't cost much more than $100 or so to fit and tune.

i rang him today man...

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
