Just use those $80 gumtree tuners. f**kers charging $800 to blow up an engine anyway.

Don't knock gumtree brah. Only the best tuners are found there. On a more serious note, I used a gumtree tuner, he tuned my car for less than 1/3 of the cost of the big boys and did just as good if not better job than any other tuner ive used and have paid top dollar to. If he did blow my engine at least I wouldn't have paid much for the privilege. Ok carry on with 88E jargon:)

Sam cops an unfair rep.

His customers use nothing but the cheapest China parts and all drift 24/7 then blame him when the shit breaks.

He knows what he's doing. It's just the nature of the beast being the cheap drift tuner in the west

His German Shepherd bit my hand; grudge for life here

what was with chequered's fb post about someone copying dyno graphs? etuner's name got mentioned quietly somewhere... anyone got any goss?

Saw that.

my assumption was some-one was doing work on cars and charging extra  for a "Chequed tune" then doing the tune themselves on etuners dyno, not telling etuner,  or customer.

then some-one came back to Chequed for some more work and there was a WTF....

That's related to the shoddy work of the flogs that had a cry about the previous business name ;)

    • 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.
