hey guys...would love to get some opinions out in the open about peoples tuners and how they like them . any bad experiences?? .from anywhere... even more specifically if anyone has used sabbinden automotive.?? love to see feed back on here..

but yeah nice and open...

You cant badmouth a business or anything here...

And anyone that is going to praise somewhere - is going to say they are 11/10 now aren't they?

This thread IMO wont ever attain anything but blowing the wind up the usual workshops, which isnt a bad thing, but we've seen that many threads about it now you could search and forever be in peace.

right...3 in Sydney...Jim Souvas CRD, Yavus Unigroup and Adam JEM

1 in Melbourne Ben Racepace

1 in Brisbane Mark Godzilla

you can bad mouth a product freely on here but not a business...which doesn't make sense

you can say (insert brand name) turbo's are crap which may be a massive multinational company but you cannot say Tommy Tuner down the road is not the one to go to.

I know what id be more worried about...a multinational with an army of lawers than some dodgy rip-off with his ass hanging out of his trousers.

not having a dig...its just something about this site that has always been questionable.

i'll add Trent @ Status... only because it's not really a usual suspect on these boards. Racepace/RE Customs, Creatd, etc... for melb peeps are quite well known.

But despite how insanely busy Trent seems to be, Status tuning doesn't seem to get a whole lot of notice. Ridiculously knowledgeable and is the ONLY person i've come across who actually cares about at cars paintwork when he's working on it!! Never have i ever seen any mechanic/tuner come remotely close to worrying about paint, etc. And for an amateur detailer, that is a massive bonus.

i'm assuming the original poster is looking for Melb shops judging from sabaddin. Have heard lots of good things about sabaddin as well.

Definately good work put in by Ray @ RE Customs.. couldnt be happier! :P

Another RE Customs fan here. Great work.

Had to go to another workshop to get RWC done and they pinched the cam seal causing a leak so went straight back to RE

Speedtech Motorsport do all the tuning on my car, have done great things with it and solved some real headaches with the car. Not that it will be of any use to you guys, they are in NZ - but nonetheless haha.

They also tune the quickest/most powerful GTR in the world :blink:

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
