ahah i used to go to le mans automotive in templestowe

damn okay half would be a big difference!

might check them out :P

was originally going to see if trent could do the tune

ty

Anything is cheaper then Le Mans... As you and I would know! LOL!

Shane still knows what he's doing.

But if you're paying Le Mans prices, you'd go Racepace as they have the higher level of knowledge for your car specific...

Racepace charge accordingly and not as much as people talk it up to be.

im more after a place which can do everything at once - tune + 100k service + install parts

racepace did an awesome job last time i took it there and is much cheaper than another place ive been to a few times, also their previous quotes were pretty low from what i remember..

anywhere you would recommend?

RacePace were cheap when I had then install a bunch of stuff; that's from a GTS-T owner who didn't want to overcapitalise on the car; don't be afraid to ask for a quote. And dat reputation...not that others are necessarily going to stuff up a job, but you /know/ RacePace are going to do it propery without any hassles/issues. Not every GTR owner is cashed up and there's a reason people drag their cars from the west to get work done there.

SHEES! where dod you used to have it serviced? Nissan Australia? :P

GT hyper and the Trent to tune...

their quote for my engine conversion was HALF that of racepace... HALF... I have been going there religiously since

GT Hyper are ok

But I wouldn't go back there

Even if the owner did come to my wedding :/

Everyone has a different experience. I know Trent recommends them

I came to your wedding...does that make me the owner?

You could be

i got drunk at your wedding toby.

and by gt hyper, you mean sv?

Jah mun

You should get drunk again

yeah, even racepace and CRD etc etc have horror stories... this will always be the case with workshops.

This is true

well that's exactly what i like about them, they did a great job last time and know exactly what they are doing.

and less of a hassle for me to get to than a lot of other workshops.

and yeah lol, this is definitely the case!

I would love to go!

Yeah, he's a funny guy!

Yeah that email address is still the correct one.

Best call Racepace between 8:30am - 9am or after 5:30pm.

I don't find Racepace prices to be as expensive as some people say, sure some things are expensive but their work is of very high quality. Iv been their customer for years since Ben owned it and Chris has been nothing but awesome since taking over, always helpful and have taken care of anything I ever needed. Iv had nothing but good experiences and their knowledge of GTR's and Nissan's in general is amazing. I'm far from cashed up but I wouldn't trust anyone and wouldn't take my car anywhere else. I'm sure there's other workshops that do great work too but for me it's Racepace. Iv had a few interesting experience with a few other workshops.

Haven't heard/seen any horror stories from RacePace?

as previously stated... all shops have horror stories from ultra tune to racepace.

cant say anything on here though... ash will throwdown the banstick :P

racepace are fkn great... we all know that, but they are expensive... and that was the only point made as the car in question has a LOT of stuff to be done

    • Spotted in Adelaide last week.... mine! New to me two weeks ago.. love it!
    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
