yes i have searched, workshops mentioned were:

hills motosport - alot of negative feedback

hitman - rung him and he said he 'only really deals with high end ecu's (which i found very confusing as microtech is one of the ecu's displayed on his website)

J.E.M - seem to have a good rep, anyone have contact info?

croydon - had a bad exp with them

looking to get a microtech LT12 installed/tuned in a r33 gtst. preferrably around northern beaches/central coast area, but not essential. would just prefer not to travel to a place where it takes 2-3 hours in public transport to get back to crows nest :domokun:

finally, does anyone nkow if i'll have to purchase the microtech coils or will my splitfires be ok?

cheers :thanks:

Hi Mate

Try Adam at TM Autosports Tuggerah if your willing to go Central Coast, he just tuned my GTR in the last few weeks and I was very happy with it. He has a fair bit of experience with Microtech as well as Skylines. I find him to be very honest and straight forward. They close this Friday, and reopen on the 7th January though.. They also have a loan car option i think if ya need to leave your car there.

thanks for everyone's input, much appreciated :cheers:

talked my regular mechanic today (northern beaches performance) and he recommmended mick's motorsport, who trent has been dealing with for years. and he could install the parts needed (high flow turbo/440cc injectors/gtr fuel pump/LT12 etc) and get a decent price. but i can't find any real feedback on sau about them.

all the other workshops mentioned seem up to par. i'll get on the blower, do some more research and then make a decision.

i'll be sure to post up the results in this thread and the rb25 dyno thread :)

cheers :laugh:

does the microtech have closed loop running yet? If not don't use it on a road car it will have poor fuel economy

agree, microtech is a WOT rotary ECU.

use the right tool for the right job, ive seen R33 GTS-t's on microtech's before...its not pretty!

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By djr81 · Posted

      Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
