Hey just moved up to Brisbane earlier this year from Melbs.

Just got into the jap cars too, had an SS 5 litre but got stolen and now have a black GTSt R33.

Wanting to know a good performance shop to do some mods.??

Probably looking at installing some gauges, turbo timer and boost controller.

Cheers.

+1 for Dan @ ERD

He also give good discounts for SAUQLD club members - often the discount is worth more than the club's annual membership. goodluck!

Hey mate,

I personally take my gtr to murcury motorsport on new market road. Found they are really helpful and have a fair bit of experience with hipo cars. Trent owns a 34 gtr that was putting out 935hp at all 4s and the crew has a number of fast cars as well. Paul (twoogle, owned the silver 32 gtr doing like 8s or something) personally recommended them to me over all the other shops.

Hope this helps Matt D

I'm at Forest Lake but dont mind driving for a decent shop without getting ripped off.

shes already costing me abit lol.

5% window tint = pull me over lol.

I have a turbosmart boost controller, just one of those ones that sits in the engine bay and winds up and down.

I wanna get a digital BC for inside the car and probly do the BOV and wastegate.

Hey mate, Yeah well Trent and Tessa at Murcury I have found to be awesome. Its probably a 30 to 40 min drive to them from yours down the inner city bypass. If you needed help getting there, let me know and i'm sure we could find a way to get it there. I know how ennoying it is to try and get there otherwise lol

My gtr was picked up today by a tow truck which Trent organised for me and is getting an ecm fitted up and tuned by them plus a few other goodies.

If you wanna know more, just message me mate

Hope you find a shop that your happy with

cheers matt

also have had my R35 in with Dan from ERD. great guy. would trust him with the car but he is a little too far away for me (inner north)

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
