hey guys...my mate has an evo7...he did some mods at home and they are -

Fuel pump

PFC

high flow turbo

Injectors (he will buy and get the tuner to put it in)

high flow exhaust

After all these mods he will want the car tuned properly...i told him about Techsport the evo guy but he said when he called him, they dont tune cars. They send them away to a tuner. That tuner qouted him $1000. He wasnt happy about the price so he was thinking of taking it to RE for $500 with that fitted injectors in the price too. But both of us havn't really heard much good stuff about RE so really would appreciate any other recomendations of where he is better off to give his car for tuning...THANKS!!

Give Rob at CREATD MOTORSPORTS a call, he has the quickest 1.8 litre lancer in Australia, it ran 10.18. He tunes Evo's WRX's GTR's all day long. He knows what he is talking about and he's a great tuner. He has around half a dozen Evo's down there at the moment.

There number is 9357 7663

Call RE Customs and see if Matt Lowth (close mate of mine) is still tuning via them - If he is, he is the guy you want :ermm: Otherwise RE also do tune as well i believe.

Uses the factory ECU and so on so nice and affordable, no drivebility problems.

His own car was making 280awkw before he sold it, one of the fastest street cars i have ever been in :P

just spoke to my mate after he had a word with Rob...he really liked the way Rob spoke and his rates...he is highly thinking of going to that place now..but if there are other good evo tuners please let us know so he can choose his machanic/tuner wisely...THANKS A LOT FOR YOU HELP JOSH!!!

Are they aftermarket or factory ECU tuning?

The factory ECU is 100% tuneable in basically every area. Better than Nistune :P

NAH with a PFC....like mention in the mods he done to the car....the did it all at home so he hasnt seen a machanic yet to work on the car...like me he plans to stick to one guy and before going to anyone, i wanted to get some reconmendations...

The guy at RE must be a great tuner but no offence to him, i personally havnt heard much great things about that place...it might be the other people other than his job causing that...not sure...or we might just know people who had bad experience with them...

All we know is that evo is only going there as the last resort...so please dont feel offended...especially his your mate...sorry :P

Ask Nick his the evo fan boi now

ya i know his got an evo so i am hoping he comments here...but spoke to a lot of evo guys and all say techsport...but they send cars off to get tune unfortunately...and that guy is asking for big money...well if it was me i will be ready to pay that since they are the best but he wasnt happy spending all that with them...you know him...the guy with the black evo...came to nandos with us where we first met....

The guy i mentioned does not work for RE.

He only tunes on their dyno, one of my best mates :P

Personally I'd go with the stock ECU, cheaper cause its free. The EVO factory ECU's are phenominal. You can even setup anti lag.

HAHAHA!!! too late...my mate already bought all the stuff...he got the Apexi PFC...for dirt price....so he might as well get it tuned with it on...

to talk to your best mate, do we call RE and ask for him and ask him if he can tune the car? But doesnt Ray tune the cars there? :P

haha yea i know the guy that evo is sexy:D

It is going to be an animal very soon...just waiting on his new CAT...will take about 4 weeks to come for some reason...than just tune and the car is going to be blowing mine away...lol...

Sell it for a profit then :woot:

Call RE and discuss with them direct, im not sure what the arrangement is at the moment and im not about to give my mates details out etc cause of that.

RE do tune as well. Give em a ring either way if you are interested in it. If not then don't haha :P

^^ I was going to say Techsport, but I saw on an EVO forum saying they are not that good... Kinda mix responses really.

You'd be safe at RE Customs.

they missed that it was in a crash, and it had a bent control arm...............

saying that, my mate loves RE.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
