hey guys as you know i had a crap slide hiflow that chat itself under light load.

And as i was expecting.... not under warranty!!

just thought id let ya guys know incase somthing happens to your slide hiflow .

"something went through the turbo"

man that makes me laugh :laughing-smiley-014:

oh well onto bigger and much better things :P

cheers

nothing wrong with bush bearing Tony.. its just that the person/company that did yours might of done not the best of jobs?

but as you said move on to bigger and better things

best of luck

yea exactly

And thanks

nuthin went through it. i can assure you. how can something go through when everything was tight, in tact, and perfectly meshed afm .

I shouldnt have sent it to THEIR workshop for warranty. A new company took over called murnane. As if their going to warranty sheldons shit hiflows... well... "aarons"

Be careful guys... be very careful if yours goes pop on you

not trying to bag Aaron but i had a very hard time getting my turbo from him and after i asked for a refund that took 2 months, if your going a new turbo i would suggest Kyle from 6Boost top block and very quick delivery, cheaper and supports customers.

A bit of topic but my 2 cents

Edited by axe s

So how did they determine that something definately went through the turbo?

Can they conclusively document and prove that that was the cause of the turbo failure?

I wouldn't be letting ~$900 get away from me without concrete proof of the reason given

Oh and taken from security's thread, if you hadn't sent it back to their workshop and sent it somewhere else then it would have voided the warranty anyway....according to them

Seek a lawyer for yourself and go through small claims. You'll be presently suprised that it won't be that expensive. It will work out less than what you paid for your turbo.

Let a court decide based on THE LAW, instead of letting him decide on whatever arbitrary reason he BELIEVES is the law.

I think that its too easy to just say, oh, something went through the turbo. But in reality, r33god was using an air filter. there's nothing that went through it.

Essentially, by not upholding his warranty, slide is just opening himself up to legal action (the ACCC may back you up with costs as well so it may not cost you anything), not to mention ruining the name of his business.

Geez, sounds like a pretty shit situation...

Good luck if it does end up in small claims mate.

Doesnt sound like youll need it though with the obvious evidence (in tact air filter and AFM mesh) on your side

mate i feel for your situation, but i think starting a thread like this is going to do nothing to help you

aaron has every right to deal with customer complaints through PM, hell if it were me i wouldn't want my name being dragged through the mud

every company has their issues, but airing it on a public forum is not the right thing to do, on top of the fact that it's against forum rules.

    • Yeah agreed, you can't assume that shop are they only people who ever had to work on it. It was just a guess on the mods based on how things were done back then. You can check the Air Flow Meters by the part number on their tags, they are likely either Z32 or Nismo ones (both read about the same but the Z32 one is a little larger while nismo is stock size but supports the higher airflow like a Z32). And yes, all that would get you to 450hp / 340kw To tell what is happening with the turbos, you want a photo of the tag on the core, that will say what it was made out of  (they can retain the front and rear covers to make the plumbing easier)  
    • I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email.

    • So...to my (and my mechanics doing the swap) surprise...the oil pan from NEO engine does not fit 100% and needs to by modified like this: It is not a huge problem but in the future i want a "proper" oil pan. So question is...what different oil pan can i get to fit without any problems and modification? Thanks! 
    • Some more info I found.  These are the last entries Yoshikiyo Fujii made on his blog before he passed away in 2009: http://blog.livedoor.jp/fujii_dynamics/ And finally this is where the workshop was situated:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/HhTPtHzt3WVcBTiEA
