Hi all,

has anyone taken their car to Gas Tune in Tuggeranong???

I took my car there yesterday and they did a great job tuning it on the dyno.

Dave who owns the place has a race boat with an RB30 bottom end/RB25 head

and a pretty decent sized turbo hanging off the side and he seems to know RB engines

pretty well.

Yep Gas Tune is very very good. They set up some external bosch coils in my GTS-T 32, some intercooler pipe work and modified it for my HKS Super Sequential Bov so I could close the CF Bonnet. Top work and sounded nasty, very unique. For those who heard it will never forget it. You could tell if I was any where in the hood!...lol

One down side - some1 in there light fingerd my Bolle' sunnies.

Hey everyone,

Wanting to service and tune up my R32. Please lemme know any places that will care 100% for my line.

Thank you everyone in advance!

Don't ever take your car to Evo. I was ripped off by them to the tune of thousands. They'll flog your car, and not complete the work you ask for, and I wouldn't even trust them for a service. Just my 2c.

I think that's what this enture thread is about, most people go to either Integra or Trojan.

Yes that's true and i did read it but there was alot of contradiction in this thread.

I think that this service is important and my 32 rumbling like a WRX and it aint no rex :P

Your 32 sounds like a rex~! Dont fret but get it seen too real soon.

Go see Dave at Gas Tune for a quick diagnosis as he's your closest, I think.

Noticable performance decrease ?

Today i took it to a mechanic for a service hopefully this will fix it. And yes there was a performance decrease and crazy amount of shaking!

I experienced 2 things similar to what you described with my GTS_T

1. A cylinder not firing due to a shitty coil - hence got gas tune to put on the Bosch external coil packs.

2. A slippy clutch beleive it or not. Clutch replaced.

Spose it could be anything but thats been my experience to date when it sounded like a wrecks!(WRX)

Hope its not exxy tho.

      Hypergear ATR45 SAT Turbo With addons (brand new - never used)

      Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action

      Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand.

      Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!

      Hypergear ATR45 SAT Turbo With addons (brand new - never used)

      By Danowner · Posted

      I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
