Wow... that much difference... i know where i'll be going when it comes up then. Does Boostworx do other things as well? Like boost gauge, controller, exhaust. Like a one stop shop?

Yeh mate Shaun and Troy do the lot! I'm closeish to them so its good, BUT even with those sorta savings its worth booking in early with Boostworx AND make the drive from the North!

the guys at tilbrook are fk witz it was 400 for a dyno tune and i got them to make a bracket for my pod and take out some hoses and he said around 450 for it all done, so i went along with it wen i went to pick up my car he said 720! i was liek wtf? then i look at the receipt and they charged me like 50bucks for taking off my front bar 25 bucks to make a bracket when it cost liek 5 bucks to do and all this other lil shit added up piss mee off

I don't think it matters where you go, you should always double check with them the final price and make them agree to that so they don't add on any extras. Get them to give you a definite final price not a ballpark figure or estimate. Unless of course you've got deep pockets and are rolling in it, not here though :O

Tilbrooks are well known for upping the figure upon finishing the job, so a firm price isnt a price to them.

i really don't understand y u bother posting on sau. You asked for recommendations and everyone told u what they thought, so you said ok i'll go to boostworx. you then still go to the place everyone told u not to and get burnt, no sympathy here!

then in the intercooler thread you said um i have no money so i'll get a cheaper just jap cooler then u get back on that night saying you'd just bought an $1100 blitz cooler, mmmmmmmmmmmm???????????

y am i starting to think you're a 13 year old kid with nothing better to do?

tool!

What. A. Tool. please sell your R34 to someone that will take care of it properly and take it to the right places. Furthermore, I concur with rbman. Why ask us where should you go when all your gonna do is waste our time by giving you good advice and places to go to.

Boostworx all the way, you have learnt.

What i meant was that something like a dyno should be at a set price, y should you be paying anymore for something that really is rather simple. Will agree with you about tilbrooks though, definitely not disagreeing with you there!

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
