Hotwire Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 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.

kalel Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 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.

Madaz Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 yeah $900 is still steep for a GTSt Lee Daniel - http://www.adelaideclutch.com.au/contactus.htm ask for Brad if he is not there ring back another day Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200895-mildren-race-engineering/page/2/#findComment-3575361 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotwire Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 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 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200895-mildren-race-engineering/page/2/#findComment-3575391 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalel Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 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. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200895-mildren-race-engineering/page/2/#findComment-3581643 Share on other sites More sharing options...

dnbutts Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 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!
