I dont even know where they are anymore. Shop around for a workshop. Go to a few, talk to the guys, see how you feel about leaving your car there and of course consider price. If you want to be able to say my car was tuned by advan or crd etc then just take it there. End of the day everyones experience is different. Its against forum rules to talk negatively about a workshop. Lots of good tuners out there. I personally take my car to forum member DVS JEZ, nice guy, good price, good tune and Im willing to travel.

Nah im not a flashy guy I font need to go around dropping names as long as my car is putting out good safe power il be happy...went into JC racing today just for a power run an check the current tune he said it was pretty af mix running a little lean just before it hits boost today it made [email protected] said with a tidy up an 16psi will see 280-300kw safely..he had a r33 in there making 320 safe with the same mods..you reckon JC racing will do??an he's only 2 mins from my house

Did he show u where it was lean and what it meant etc? I havent had much experience with other shops was more trying give a suggestion. I have heard of shops saying it needs this and that when it doesnt but they can book u in next day, see where this is going? If you went there, they showed you proven results, you liked them and you want to leave your car there then get a quote. If Hervey Norman are arseholes you buy from The Good Guys. Your decision and plenty of options to explore

Yeah he showed me coz the reason I wanted to get it looked at was because my knock sensor on the dc controller was hitting 60 the other day so that's the main reason I wanted to check the tune he showed me where it was leaning out and hel fix it all up two of my other mates had a power run today and told them that there tunes were both spot on

My car was tuned there. I then got it tuned by DVS JEZ.

Who are JC? I need to get my car looked at again but because Jez is up way away from me, its not always practical to go there so I might drop over at CRD for a look over. Lately Ive been seeing some serious knocks, even on low boost, in the upper RPM. Scares me.

friend of mine took 3 different rb30 heads down there to get them rebuilt and prepped for an upgraded set of cams they stated and i quote

"the heads are cracked beyond repair"

at which point they refused to return them stating the damaged heads had been disposed of.

the last head that was taken to them was a known good head and the second only had minor wear if there were and cracks they could have been welded i am unsure of the condition of the first

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
