Granville Tuner Matter Resolved. Thanks For All Your Support


Recommended Posts

I recently got to speaking about a bad experience with a tuner who has a vase full of turbo wheels on his reception desk. Interestingly Ive had 4 others tell me about the same vase and similar experiences.

So; anyone else cop the same teatment.

PS: if you dont know what Im talking about, then you havent been to the tuner, and there is no need to worry.

Just say the tuner.. Save me alot of worry..

Why does he have a vase full of turbo wheels? Just because he like blowing his own turbos or enjoys watching peoples hard earned cash fly out the window?

lol

So why start a thread then

I have copincidentally found 2 EVO owners, one RX7 owner and an XR6 turbo owner who had the same trick pulled upon them that I had.

I just want to know if anyone with a skyline has had the same problem. Hills Motorsport says that 2 other Skylines have been hauled into his workshop with these problems, and like me, they are suspicious about this tuner.

NB It is of course not the very reputable Hills Motorsport.

I dont want to turn it into a discussion until the court case is settled. But Id love to know if anyone else has had the same problem.

Remember if you dont know what this thread is about, then you wont have had the problem.

I still dont understand why you posted the thread if you cannot name, or wait until court case and yet you want to discuss.

We havent got much info to go on here.

And my car is sitting in a workshop right now and how do I know its not this place you are reffering to?

yeh give us the name or at least the story of what the problem is, all we know now is there is a dude tuning cars with turbo wheels on his desk and there is a court case involved, give us some info

lol,

Just out of interest; what prompted you to hand over the keys to the guy behind the desk when he had a vase full of turbo wheels sitting next to him?

i don't think it's yavuz either, evil. He doesn't have a desk or a vase :)

The matter is progressing through the courts at the moment and should finalise in about 10 days. So I dont want to pre-empt any legal process.

hahah yeah right.

NSW legal system for dummies; Civil court 'can' have juries, made up of 4 jurors, but this is rare. So unless the judge is surfing SAU, and you are giving information that has not already been submitted pertinent to your case, which i doubt you would do, then you won't be pre-empting legal process.

But on the area of defamation, that is a separate issue.

So if you said, 'i went to 'V8s rule Workshop' and my car blew-up on the dyno, and are taking them to court over a concern regarding potential malicious treatment', that would be fine legally for a couple reasons because you are stating what have become public civil court records, you are stating what has happened/happening and importantly you are not making a preemptive decision on the outcome.

But because it's not forum rules, and i know if I was the workshop and had potentially killed your engine, i wouldn't be very happy with the kangaroo court that these things turn into on forums.

Oh for f**ks sake... IF YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND THE THREAD IT'S BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT or IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE NAME OF THE WORKSHOP, SIT TIGHT, WE WILL KNOW IN ABOUT TEN DAYS BUT AGAIN, DO NOT WORRY, I REPEAT....f*kEN RELAX.

:end rant:

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • 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.
