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

ok here are some details

Name: Sanders Racing

Where: Unit 2/55 Gillam Drive Kelmscott

Does: Rotary work, fabrication, custom turbo installations to any vehicle and general mechanical repairs.

Phone #: 04 03 50 57 88

Lee has a 700 plus horsepower RX3 that runs 9.20 @ 148mph and is very well known in the drag racing scene

And yes he did work for Cypher and then he did move to ovaboost. .

Sweet man, let us know how it goes.

I am trying to find a good mechanic to do my 100k service.....

    • I used to have Walbro 255's when they were a pretty common update. (or were they 044? 040?) In any case I had a dirty tank. I thought the tank was good, but I would find the filter would clog in maybe ~50km of driving. If the issue persists, well, your fuel system or tank has crap in it that the pump is sucking up.
    • Hi. Ok thanks for the info. I/we do not know what tune is on that Nistune ECU so it is why there is stock ECU and that Nistune is for later when the car is done. I have guy who tunes Nistune and other ECU so i will then take it to him to see and properly tune for the car   And for the update. On 99,9% it is bad fuel pump. Which is wierd cuz it is like 2 years old(brand new walbro 255) and that filter (also brand new) was dirty.  I was alwaya pumped premium(100) on very good petrol station so i dont know how is that possible...  
    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here
