OK, just had my neighbour tell me who this is (but of course I promptly forgot his name :) ) but apparently he runs some pretty insane mazda rotaries at the drags and is just starting out. Going by the guys own cars I would say he may be worth trying out, and unlike a lot of so called Perth based "performance" mechanics he will work on all sorts of stuff from NA 4cyl all the way up to S/C BB V8's and everything in between.

hmmmm sounds good :P so who's willing to be a test mule and go try ?

The place u are talking about is Lee Sanders. he used to work for rotamotion but now has his own workshop in Kelmscott. Top bloke to deal with, knows his shit and does top quality work.

the company is called Sanders Racing.

cheers

he worked for cypher then moved to ovaboost and now is doing his own thing. dont think hes worked for rotamotion?

but your right lee is a top bloke to deal with and his fabrication is a work of art

  • 2 weeks later...

Thats a really good price......

Does that include the timing belt being replaced as well as the idler and tensioner pulleys?!?

Cause they can add about 300 bucks to the bill if they need to be replaced....and then there is the water pump...

I have been quoted around $1000 if you want everything to be done...

On that note, does anyone recommend a good workshop to go a full 100 k service on a '92 R32 GTS-T??

Edited by Douse

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • 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 😂
    • 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.
