I've have recently bought a 2009 Premium GTR. As with most, after the initial excitement of the performance wore off, I found myself looking at aftermarket upgrades.

So last week I purchased the following, which are being installed shortly.

Kakimoto Cat Back exhuast system

Titanium Mid pipe

3" Cobb Intakes

BOV's

I also bought a Cobb accessport with TCM. Now I just need some advice as to where is best to take it in the Perth area. A friend recommended I take it to XSpeed but I have since heard that they have gone into liquidation. Is this true?

Also, is there anyone in Perth that has any recommendations or advice on where to go?

Thanks

Thanks for the info, a friend recommended Japanese Performance in Malaga, they can't get me in till Mid November so I will try Fabcar tomorrow.

JPC is where I would take it, Rob and Danny have had a lot of experience with GT-Rs and know what's going on.

My 2 cents.

I'm not looking for an all out performance tune yet, I'll be treating myself to some more bits in the new year and I will take it to JPC then. I'm currently running an off the shelf tune for 93 so its a little flat, I just want the stock feel back now that I have the noise I wanted!

Bad news, turns out that the dyno room was not ready when I took the car on Monday. Seeing how I'm in Malaysia till the end of the month I will probably book into JPC, see how it goes there instead of Fabcar. The fact that they have a back log is probably a good sign that they know what they're doing.

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.

    • They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!
