Hi guys, i have just had my car tuned again with the pwoer fc in it, it now makes 246rwkw on 14psi, however it now has a lot of lag, and feels like it's getting slower and slower and the engine light comes on at 7krpm. Can anyone recomend a really good tuner in melbourne? I have taken it abck ot the guy and he doesn't know what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated. THanks Mark

What mods. Hack advise sounds like its pinging up top of the rev range. Could be simply too much ignition or the fuel pump cant keep up and is leaning out despite how much fuel correction they are tryign to throw at it.

Ring around, there are a few good tuners in Melb, just dont be scared off by advice you may not want to hear :)

Which tuner was it that cant fix it if u dont mind me asking

Thanks guys, relaly appreciate it. I will try and get onto racepace. Have been to 2 on that list and they both stuffed me round and tried ripping me off. I won't name this one as i am not here to tarnish somones name, i just want my car to be fixed. Cheers Mark

I'm not sure what your version of ripping someone off, but just to give you a heads up, a full PFC tune will cost you around 500-800 ... a touchup to your tune may only cost a couple of hundred, depends how much dyno time and tuning time is needed :dry:

What are RE customs and Ice Performance like (And all the other ones on that list)?

Both have reputations.... just would like to hear some personal experience?

Or is it just Racepace hands down as far as skylines go? Tried a search (thats how I found this thread) but cant find anything relevent.

A simple search of the Vic section will tell you mate.

Remember, no business slander or negativity, but most places have a pretty good rep with most people.

So yeah, have a search of the Vic section and you'll get a lot of threads about it all :(

When i went to racepace, all cars there were gtr's including two r34 gtrs :O and a 9second r32 gtr

So they must know what they doing and seem geared towards the performance :(

recustoms is a friendly environment where i have my car serviced as its only a nimble r32 gtst :laugh:

They also install sound systems and seen plenty of mercs getting audio systems

Hope this little info helps

Racepace by far are the most professional and honest workshop I have ever dealt with, I have been to a few, and have been burnt badly, but I have never had an issue with racepace, always top qulaity work, and my PFC tune is brilliant, the car runs better and returns better economy than the stock ECU ever did.

Ive heard very good things about RE customs too. And their pricing seems very fair to me.

Just Emailed them and was told $180 for safc install/tune and calibrate my evc...

by the way 31jet. saw your car in the magazines this month. Love what you've done with it!

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
