Best info would be to search. Youll find that 99% of the people will say Boostworks or Tilbrooks. regularly? well 5000k's of course, and the major at 100,000k's. If you want to make connections, make it out to as many SAU events as you can!

Yup as stated a search and you will find that most people will say Boostworx or Tilbrooks, but as there is another thread saying Tilbrooks are closing, that only leaves Boostworx.......

Also for parts you can see the twit above(ISC)......lol or head down to Japanese Motorsport or Jap Import Spares!!

i have to say jeff at the speed lab is awsome!! been to shaun once and he is great also!

my 2c!

check sig for jeffs number!

depending on where you are, i'd also recommend Road & Track in Enfield. Details are in my sig :thumbsup:

yo thanks for the help everyone ey, appreciate it

Does anyone rate Car Toys for upgrades or people reckon they charge you too hard?

  • 1 month later...

boostworx took 13 months to put together my mates GTR, then it shat itself first week for them to only take another 3 months to fix that, and then try and charge him, saying it wasnt a warranty issue, when they built the motor. i used to go to tilbrooks, now i am thinking JMS cause ive heard brady is there????????? true or not?>

yes Brady is there

um yeah as per statements above my vote is for Boostworx

pitty boostworx is a bit of a drive for some people..... *cough* Northen suburbs...

ive heard good things about fours and more thats if you are from up north.

my 2c? never sent my car off to have performance upgrades done to it...... not yet anyway!

Boostworx +9999999. They have a very good reputation around Adelaide. Shaun and Troy do some awesome work and really know their stuff.

rb24det, I've never heard of a workshop taking 13 months to rebuild a RB26? What was the reason? A delay in parts? They rebuilt + blueprinted my mates VR4 and that only took 2 or 3 weeks.

    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
