Hi Joel ,Mate Try ROTOMOTION ,

To be HONEST i seen many a Car which someone has tryed to do what your now doing & IF you do have a problem it will cost much more to strip & repair the mistake,

They have a lot of VL`s in having all what your doing to your`s.

There a better PRICED WORKSHOP then many other`s & to be HONEST MIKE is one of best guy`s that tune with Microtech,

Ps call me about HKS lowmount,

cheer`s Chuckie.

yeah i was thinking that just i been slowly pulling all the wiring harness for the fuse box back through due to having the engine bay painted and it just seems to be becoming a bigger and bigger job than i thought and seems to be getting over what i wanted to spend on wiring and tuning. ill give you a call regarding the hks lowmount tomorrow

It's a labour thing as it can take several hours, get a few tools and clips and slowly follow the manual, if you are not confident to physically start it up have it running use the factory gear and have your new loom ready in place to take over the ignition and fuel.

Unfortunately you may have to pay for the 5 or 6 hours to set it up at a workshop, at least you have confidence that your car will not transform into a barbecue doing it yourself lol

DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR TO ROTOMOTION.

I have taken my skyline there and had nothing but trouble.

Rotomotion will do things like:

You take your car there to ask them to run it on the dyno, check your afr's and see what it's making power wise. Should take 15 minutes. They'll keep it for a week, when it was booked in for a single day, then when you pick it up you'll get a stupid excuse like "Oh, there was a car/box/feather in the way". Seriously, I know there's a rotomotions account on here, if there is a car in the way of your dyno, how about just just move it?

You take your car to do a fuel pump, they quote you x amount, when you pick it up (again several days after they had told you it'd be done) it's double that. A year later you go to a real workshop and they tell you that you need to redo all of their work because the wiring is dodgey.

You take your car for a clutch job, they take much longer than expected, charge you much more than they quoted, and then after a week it all comes apart because they haven't installed it properly.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR TO ROTOMOTION.

Seriously, shits me that people still talk about going there as if it's the best place in the world. I've heard nothing but bad things about them and had several bad experiences myself.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      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 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2

      Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
