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.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
