Has anyone heard of Insight Motorsport (i think that's what it's called). A workshop recommended them to me for a tune.

Any thoughts?

Scott from Insight - they're in Arndell park (by Blacktown).

A few good mates have used him with great results... and I've been to a dyno day there and there's no doubt he looks after customer cars :blink:

As usual though, depends what ECU you have... I wouldn't use him for my power FC, for example, but I know plenty who have.

DAHTONE RACING are definitely a sure thing for an engine rebuild they can from mild to all out whatever you want

I grew up with these guys so i know the workmanship is second to none you'll get great service and great pricing...i trust them so much that they are currently building my new RB25/30 motor with all the trimmings

Here are some pics for those interests to see what we are bringing out of the shop this year :happy:

I recommend Maytech (in my signature)

I dont work for them or anything, just a regular customer there..

Mayan, the owner of the workshop, has great knowledge on knows RBs, SRs and a lot other engines like 4age and mitsubishis and audis..

he worked on my last 3 skylines and i never had any problems with his workmanship.

his latest project was a rebuild of a red r32 gtr, he did all the mechanical and electrical work... i think the car's still at the workshop waiting for new coilovers to arrive from japan. but the engine is complete, speak to him about it, and maybe even talk to the owner of the car if you get a chance, you'll be impressed.

best thing is, he doesn't charge an arm and a leg.

give him a call on 0296006995, if he doesnt answer then he's probably busy so just leave a message, he'll get back to you, tell him Thomas sent you

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSP male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSP reducing bush?

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
