My bro has a stock na z32, its running a bit rough (not too bad), not idling well and has a few oil leaks, and theres a few other little things wrong with it, and I cbf fixing it.

Can anyone suggest a good place to take it that won't rip him off? Located in south melb so somewhere reasonably close would be good.

Somewhere without a 3 week wait would be nice, want to get it in the shop this week.

...and would it run with an rb20 AFM :D

thanks bry :D

you have a number of choices -

Name: R E Customs

Contact: Ray

Number: (03) 9548 3414

Location: 16 Yiannis Court, Springvale

Ray will sort out any problems for a decent price - def recommend, as they have the right tools for any job.

GSB Automotive

Contact: George Bittar

Location: 37 Myrtle Street Glen Waverley

Number: (03) 9561 0321

My car is currently at GSB Auto getting a few things fixed up. Its taking time, but George keeps in touch to let me know where my car is at. Pretty good prices too.

Def recommend any of these 2. Oh and GSB has a courtesy car as well if you live ages away.

Good luck finding someone now, with only 2 weeks before Christmas/New Year closure, most w/shops will be FLAT out :D

If RE is not too far from you, you can try Sabbadin Automotive, only a 2 min drive from RE.

No thanks to Ray, previous experience with him and a mates car weren't good.

I'm after something that will take a week tops, as my bro is going away soon

Then try GSB - but as Al said most workshops close up around this time.....i think gsb will be closed from the 21st till the 7th. But def worth giving george a call and get him to look at the car.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
