everyone will have a good or bad opinion so expect some haters but with mine was a good they even gave me a heads up after the tune that my slave was pretty much on its was out so got it replaced there too

I think a important factor to remember is the key components of the work is sourced out to engine workshops, were the machining, honing and rest of the recovery process is completed. The assembling of the motor is then done in the workshop, bolting the parts together. To save some coin it's often viable to remove the motor from your vehicle and source a few of things yourself then leave the assemble and tune to a workshop.

In terms of feedback, they have a good reputation a good friends stagea was rebuilt by them and made 600~ hp last year and still is going well.

i own said stagea and i cant recommend marc and the boys at c-red highly enough great work, great to deal with and even understanding if dramas occur with payment so A++++ rating for c-red

Yep Tony at Nostech is very knowledgable for machining / engine building. He did my crank, crank collar etc, also did a mates GTR crank too, and the crank for my dads BMW race car. He seems to know his shit!

PM me if you want my indirect experience.

As far as good machinists go, we use Tony at Nostech in Welshpool.

    • Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.
    • Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way
    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate 
    • He means "as opposed to mechanical cable drive". Older cars (R32 for ex.) had cable drive. Later cars with essentially the same gearbox, ie R34 GT (NA RB25) used essentially the same box as the R32 GTSt, but instead of a cable drive, had an electronic speed sender plugged into the same hole in the box, running from the same little gear that would have run the cable. Some of the shittier later cars use a speed sender on the nose of the diff, or the ABS sensors.
    • Lower than engine, or lower than it should at the hubs? Either way, that is a nice power figure and I'm not surprised you say it rips now. What stopped you from turning it up any more? Injectors? Or did it just stop responding to boost?
