anyone seen the new(i think) workshop for skylines on...


Recommended Posts

um i dont know the name... it looks very dodgy... looks like an old petrol station with skyline posters everywhere..... if you drive down poath road, turn left (at the round about) into kangeroo road and its on your right near the bend

I'll take my line there... if someone will take the drive with me. (in a few weeks when it is running of course)

and if they dunno what bits are on it right off the bat.

I'll walk out of there laughing.

HAHA sounds good man....

walk on in and say somethin like...

"i just got this car right... and i want more boost.... how do i go about it and wheres the turbo?"

I think everyones being a bit harsh, they're probably new and dont have much money etc for advertising/ good workshop.

Ive seen pics of heaps of workshops in japan and they all look like little sheds and they still pump out good quality cars. Eg reckless in one of the latest eds of HPI.

But then again they could post on here for free and they havent, and you think if they specialised in skylines they would know about australia's leading skyline website.

Yes definately a bit harsh - I would hate to be starting a new business specialising in Skylines if thats the response you get...

***think positive thoughts***

If they are dodgy then they probably wont last [not with educated people at least] but I think they deserve a chance nonetheless.

I think its great somebody is trying to look after our kind - I don't think there is enough around personally, not in my area and not like the industry in the rest of OZ...

EDIT*

I am sick of people either thinking I have an R33 [gtst] or that the parts are the same or calling my car an R34GTS-T - i mean really, is it that hard to know???

[This has happened with just about any workshop you care to name].

I will go to down this place and get me a

NISMO sticker :(

j/k

there is a difference between bagging a shop and saying ur going to go down and check out their knowledge on what they profess as being specialists in.

WTF?

How was i bagging. I agree with narkie on this.

I going to see if they know i have a GT30 is far from bagging.

if they do know, then good luck to them. Cant see how it was bagging at all

    • 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...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
