Glen at ESP racing...they are also a ViPEC dealer...much better ecu than Power FC, but he is good on FC's too if you decide to go that way

Croydon Racing Developments will do it right the first time, I will not not go anywhere else.

Im sure that Croydon are good at what they do but they're in Sydney and tuning in Sydney is much different to tuning in Canberra, we're 700m higher in altitude than Sydney and oxygen levels here are different so why wouldnt you get it tuned here by someone perfectly capable of doing it?

Being capable is one thing, getting the best is another.

I only trust one man with tuning and thats the guy autotech tried to get, who isn't a mechanic, yet they were going to hire him as a professional ecu tuner.

I have heard good things about crd, but a safe tune from crd (which is what you would have to get because of the altitude difference) wouldn't be as good as a good tune done in canberra.

Ultimately you would get CRD up form sydney, or Ceffie from melbourne, But Ed is Very good from everything I have heard and what Ceffie has told me :D

$650 FOR A DYNO TUNE!!??? - *Cough Rip off cough*

I've had 4 different dyno tunes done by 4 different shops (Autotech was one of them) and Ive never paid more than $400.

I guess they charge more for GT-R's??? :D lol!

Usually pay about $350 but that was the first tune with the ecu. Did have some other work done at the same time so coulda made a difference?

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
