REALLY nice guys and heard lots of good stuff about them, but still annoyed that they didnt prime up the hole they made for the side indicators. They also made a new hole for the dimmer switch when there was one already there. I was told recently that my cat was put on upside down, although UPI dont do that themseleves, but they always send to the same place. I dont understand how a business that specialises in exhausts dont know how to intall a cat. a little birdie also told me that they struggle a little in the tuning dept. But like i said REALLY nice guys.

hi aybee,

curious to read some of your comments.

which car is yours,always interested to hear when somebody isnt satisfied.

we dont prime repeater hole as it has a rubber seal on the repeater.

seems strange that we wouldnt put a dimmer in an existing hole,is it in a similar position to the one we fitted.is there clearance at the back of the hole to fit a dimmer switch.

if the cat is fitted upside down we can have that fixed for you no problem,my contact details are below if you want me to organise it for you

with regards to tuning,we dont struggle to do tuning,because we simply dont do it,unlike others we wont fiddle with things we are not equipped to do.

we only do compliance,mechanical repairs,servicing and upgrades.

Don't know if your looking around, but it would defintely pay to at least get a quote from a place called J & S Japanese Auto Importers. I recently needed an engine rebuild (long and sad story), I was getting quotes from $5000 to $3500. J & S did the rebuild for $1500! I've been back many times since and can't fault the quality of the work, and defintely not the price.

I belive their number is 03 9775 0593 - they are in Carrum Downs, which is a bit furhter of than Morrabin - but I say well worth the trip (if only for a quote).

They also seem to be allergic to bullshit there as well, which is a welcome change.

    • Hmm. OP question ever so slightly confusing. I shall interpret it as a manual conversion of an auto. Yes, you can use either of those gearboxes, or any of the other RB manuals. It would be a waste (of money and resource) put to put a turbo box behind an NA RB20 though. Which is what Duncan is saying, essentially. Modifying any RB20DE Skyline is a waste of time. Just use the shell to put a V8 in.
    • Finished putting the rest of the dump on today. Itchy and a prick of a job with 5 vbands to line up with the plumb back setup but I got there in the end.  Couple of other little bits and pieces put on while I was at it. Need to sort all the wiring that has to come to the hot side of the bay so I can finish mounting up the boost control and emap lines.  Fingers crossed ECU rocks up early this week and I get some time to work on it.

    • Sure, but the result will put so little power to the ground it won't be able to move. Whatever your reason, it will be cheaper and more practical to sell the manual and buy an automatic
    • Hi! Is it possible to use and swap the RB25DET/RB25Neo manual gerbox on to my RB20DE Neo engine with an automatic transmission?
    • my current daily - BiTurbo Diesel SQ5 8R with a remap and some light cosmetic mods. Which is sitting in front of my old daily that hasn’t been driven in 7 years now, home to numerous redbacks no doubt. MK4 Golf GTI with a boser hood extension, air ride airbag suspension, factory RHD Xenon’s from the Japanese R32 and stubby electric mirrors (also from Japan) sitting on custom made 18x10” Work Meisters for the golf’s bolt pattern and offset. one day I’ll revive it as a project, pull the engine out, put some forged bits in, chuck a big turbo on it and tune it to somewhere around 250kw and call it a barn find to make millions off YouTube views. Till then, it is a good breeding home for redbacks and the boot is good for storing my Christmas tree for 11 months of the year.
