Anyone tried using Tokyo Motorsport in Welshpool for a tune.

Please let me know what you thought of their service

Any news on how your tune went ?

im interested to know...

Jamie, Brett, Phil and Justin all do a killer job as ive worked with all of them and I can back what they do as i used to work there !

the quality of the tunes is top notch and if you think they are expensive then whats your engine worth at the end of the day ?

Id say it would be a bit more then $1700.

And if it wasnt just a basic retune then half of the posts in this thread are useless as the hours that go into dailing in cams (CORRECTLY) and tuning for early boost delivery are more then just a couple of hours labour !!

1700 for retune?

For the 34 to get it's PFC installed and a good tune i'm looking at 500-600 or so...

I think the 34 atm get's like... 400km or so to a tank?

Don't be surprised if it comes back a couple of hundred more than they quoted you though.

Yeah.. but that STILL doesn't add up to 1700 :P

Haha, my $600 install and tune of my Link G4 came back to $1650... Miiiiiiiiiiiight have required the lower intake manifold to be changed at the same time though :P

Back to the original thread

I ended up getting Allstar do my tune like some of you guys recommended

$450 and seems good tune (only picked up today)

I got 250kw at the wheels with standard injectors and AFM

Seems nice and smooth all the way thru the rev range

They said with injectors should get 300kw + but at the moment am happy with a 400HP motor!

I am sure Tokyo M would have done a great job as they seem very professional,

and pretty sur it would not have come to $1700.

I think they were covering themselves for the worst possible outcome.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
