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.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
