Hay guys,

Looking at getting a full fluid change on my R35, anyone one know any good places in Perth to take it to besides Fabcar and JPC?

Nissan want $2800....

BMW in Wangara can get me Pentosin FFL4 for $36 a liter. I’m also thinking of going with Redline 0W40 or Motul 8100 X-Max 0W-40 Motor Oil. For the diff I’m thinking about Motul SAE 75W140 gear oil.

Most places I’ve spoken to in Perth want to go OEM Fluids. They want $1200 for 10L transmission oil! I can get it imported for $700?

In the UK you can get it for,

Full Fluid Service £499 ($843 AUD)
Including:
Engine oil change - MOTUL 300V NISMO approved oil and O.E. Oil filter
Gearbox fluid change - PENTOSIN FFL-4 DCT fluid
Front and Rear differential oil change - MOTUL competition 75-140 XTRAC/HEWLAND/MUGEN approved oil
'50 point check'

WTF is wrong with Perth? Just Jap Auto in Sydney also want $23,999.00 for a new gearbox?!? You can buy it for $13,100 US over in the states for a 2013 spec (GR6-Z30A)??

Cheers

Dave

I am taking mine to Galvsport Perth as well, doing all fluids for me also, just trying to sort out the fluids myself. Good info about BMW in wangara, may take a look at them

Where did you get your transmission fluid from in the UK. I may get some from there how long was the fedex postage. and costs?

cheers mate

Tony.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
