Agreed about the clutch. For an Extreme HD Organic, I was charged $650 SUPPLIED AND FITTED by boostworx!!

Even with the ceramic clutch, it should only a couple of hundred more, so say $900 at worst? $1400 is a MAJOR rip off.

Thanks for that Steve.

Do you have the number for Brad Fox?

I think that if they find anything with my car after the oil pressure check I might take it somewhere else to get it fixed if there is something wrong. I get the feeling that Mildren charge like wounded bulls.

umm, thats supplied and fitted im talking.

My clutch was $360, install $240 for labour, and $60 for flywheel machining. So if you supply your own clutch, install/flywheel machine should be about the same.

EDIT:

Just re-read your post, $490 for clutch alone, would make it $790 installed by Boostworx for 33 GTSt :(

Well got my car back today from the oil pressure test and all is fine thank god. They reckon that it is just the sender on the gauge which maybe faulty. Charged me 88 bucks for doing the test. They tested the car when it was both hot and cold. Cold tested 100 psi and hot was 80 psi.

you could have spent 90 bucks on an aftermarket oil gauge and know what your real oil pressure is ALL the time :D

Mildrens have a good name behind then, first hand though i wouldnt know. I highly reccomend Boostworx at Panorama though, Sean has a good name and i recon anyone on this forum would agree with me. Im booked in in a couple of weeks for a full dyno tune and cant wait!

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.

      Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
