f**k all.

i see your point.

doesnt mean they wont bend you over when it comes to payment time.

Well it does take a fair bit of time, Tilbrook says 8 hours and Southern Hi tech said 10 hours, and thats for turbos only, so it must be a fairly hard job.

Try yourself Chad, I know I'm gonna attempt to do mine!

Im way to lazy, so i'll give Tilbrook a call and see what he's upto these days, when he shut up shop he said he would still work on my car, and at a discounted rate :)

:D Ask Heslo about PK's cocktails. :laughing-smiley-014:
And Eddy, they weren't PK's they were flicks cocktails :)
Same diff :P

haha, I think you'll find (from what I've heard) that PK was the teacher & Flick is now a well qualified student :)

what happened with the turbo swap organized by Steve (at you know whose place)?

If you can get a decent price with a tune, I might be interested as well Chad........my back is still way too sore to be bending over all day otherwise I'd do them myself and I'd probably do yours and Luke Heslo's at the same time..........also, I'm over waiting for peeps to get back to me regardless of how busy they may be :(

fckn ROFL!

haha Too right! Cocktails are my specialty tho. Pk's Specialty is unusual shots.. just ask him bout the shot containing tobasco sauce.. thought i was gonna die after that one!

Few people from here can testify that my cocktails at lukes last party were pretty good!

    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
