Hey All,

Looking to get my rb26 power fc re-tuned soon, was wondering if anyone knows any good tuners in Melbourne? People with experience and really know their power fc's.

I was talking to Sam from Dr. Drift a while ago, seemed to know what he was on about...anyone had theirs tuned through him, any good?

If this has already been discussed in another thread, please point me there as I searched but couldn't come up with any specific threads talking about power fc tuning experiences.

Cheers!

Gagz

This will turn into another "I love Racepace thread". :P

So ill start: Racepace

Either that or see here:

Plenty of threads on this type of thing if you search with each workshop name

Yeah from Bendigo so don't know any workshops and specifically after power fc tuning specialists.

Thanks all so far, will do a search on racepace and see what everyone says about them.

Cheers!

Yeah hate to be a Racepace fan boy but I had nothing but trouble with my PFC till I took it there :P I'm sure 99% will agree.

I had ping problems, I'd been to another workshop MANY times to try and get it fixed, took it to Ben, gave him my first born and the car's been 100% gold since. No engine light ever!

If he can prep race cars and tune a Nur and a Z-tune I'd say your safe :)

Creatd motorsports ;)

everyone has their own opinions about tuners.. really you should go to someone who u see alot of their cars out there running the times :) track/street/circuit/drift

I would have to agree with Adzmax. I have seen two cars, with Pfc's, taken to 4 different workshops (non of which were Racepace) and all tunes were pretty shitty. Every time i see a car with a Pfc tuned by Ben @ Racepace all run and operate smoothly.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
