Hi guys,

just thought i would shear with you my exsperance with a High performance work shop i just used to get some work done to my R31.

shop was RE customs in springvale vic.

i had a manual convertion and dyno tune done. (118.6 rwkw now.)

now all went fine apart from the following points.

car was recived in a very dirty state, had greasy finger prints all over it and even scratched.

indicators in all capacity (inc hazards) are now not working. ray spent 1.5h on the prob with a few of the boys and

couldn't figure it out so its off to the auto elec when i get home.

im not bagging them out im just saying that thier were a few points that required a little look at.

If you are not bagging them and Ray by all accounts has tried to address the problem, why post it up on here? You may not be satisfied but that is an issue you should be raising with R.e not airing on a public forum to people who don't know the full story.

This will no doubt be locked shortly anyway.

The car was booked in for a transmission change over and dyno tune. Your car came to us on a tow truck covered in scratches and not exactly looking the cleanest. RE complete the required work on your vehicle (transmission change over and dyno tune.). Your indicators not working was not something that you booked your vehicle in for nor was it something that was required to be checked over whilst it was with us.

I'm sorry you weren't happy with the service that was provided to you.

This is a public forum so people should be allow to express/voice their concerns, interest.......but i guess to a certain extend. Some choose to not speak out, others want to araise the issues so other members can be aware which i guess is also a good thing.

Its up to you whether you want to believe what Brenton said or not.

So basically your happy with the work done on the car that was requested. The box install and tune. But unhappy that RE didn't wash your car and fix your electrical issues that weren't part of the work?

I think this would have been something to discuss with RE Customs BEFORE posting up on the forums.

Fear Ash's admin powahs........

      Nah its a server spammer thing  Although, now that I manually approve all the accounts I can probably loosen up some of the restrictions.

      Thread bump, again! Although, no bad news this time. Posting for the sake of possible root cause. Basically, I rebuilt it (mostly stock), installed Haltech + sensors, had it running fine on new ECU.  Still not really understanding why it cracked pistons last time. Got to tuners, and while checking timing, noticed +-10deg of timing scatter while revving. Changed CAS, and it was rock solid. While not definitive, can't imagine seeing 20+ psi with that amount of scatter would be a good thing. Also glad I found something.   Bit more of a run down; Carried out a stock rebuild, a set of stock pistons, out of a spare bottom end. Everything stock apart from head studs and oil restrictors. (so I can pretend I didn't let the Nissan out, ha.) Armed with the measuring gear and FSM, set about doing overhaul. Oil restrictors as per oil control thread for a RB25, stock oil pump, drifting. Head drain/vent from rear of head, to passenger side of sump above oil level. Two dash 10 vent lines from drivers side of sump (unused atm) Hi octane style cam cover breather kit Splash covers over last 2 cam caps. Both breather lines from cam covers to vented to atmosphere catch can, not plumbed back into sump (wanted to see what it was actually breathing). Got it run in (did about a 1000km) no to low boost scenario, As I had questions over old ECU setup. Installed haltech +sensors for flex Retune on E85 (finding CAS Issue along the way), made 300rwkw at 20psi, out of wastegate. Did a drift day the next day (yes, it was a big weekend!) and was checking catch can throughout the day, ZERO blowby. I mean nothing. Lines from cam covers are not even wet. Done a bunch of street driving, spirited and catch can is still dry. Early days I guess, but pretty happy so far. Also now run 10w60, up from the 10w40 that I used to run. Oil pressure is significantly better, especially when hot (as you would expect)
