Just recently i got my car regency defected by a motorbike cop, who are the worse to deal with, i guess they needed to fill their quota. Anyway i took my car to ***EDITED PM ME FOR DETAILS*** to get a defect package done plus a little work, FMIC, boost controller, duno tune and some general repairs. Now i know a few guys swear by them and i don't want to step on any toes and have brilliant dealings with them in the past.

They got it cleared through regency (bill was several thousand) but i ran into a few problems the day i picked it up. The car was slower than before i took it there and got slower as the days went by. It turned out to be a faulty fuel pump. I got that fixed and ran very well, only for it to break down at 5.30 in the morning. Smoke out the bonnet.

The entire wiring loom from battery to firewall completely melted. To make matters worse some F*** kicked in the back quarter and going to cost 2g to get it panel beated, bastards. The side skirt they 'repaired' and stuck with silicone, which expands under heat, has come off looking quite ugly. At ****** they snobbed me off and tried telling me that the standard motor wasn't designed to revv and the standard turbo was why it was so slow. Being dyno tuned, I would of thought thay would of picked up any problems.

Felt that since i am young they didn't know what i was talking about but i was a large walking pinata. Like i said before, don't want to upset anyone but becarefull who you take your baby too.

hence why I don't let any workshops touch my car - except Donnon to tune it.

I have been financially hit by pretty much every big name performance workshop in the North-eastern area when I was green and modified my S15.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
