Hyper-Tech done work on my brother in-laws MYO WRX. They were not cheap and did stuff up 2 x AFM and then charged him for each one they broke, he did come to a compromise with the manager and sorted the AFM problem by installing a MOTECH ECU (not at Hyper-Tech) after all that! I was not aware that they no longer deal with the public.

Anyway, my local garage have just quoted me for the compression test anyway ($50) I have been going to him for years (2 doors from my house) and trust him 100% - He mainly deals with Hot Rods not Hot JAP's and has said he will look at it for me and if he's not comfortable with tuning it, will advise me so. I think I will leave it at that for now until it's actually in my hands so I can see what ECU it's using ETC...

Thanks for your help.

RacePace all the way - Ben gave me plenty of advice prior to purchasing my GTR as well as ongoing, even when it did not financially benefit him. I don't even bother getting a quote from him now - i just drop my car off, pick it up and pay him.

So yeah - RacePace or Ice all the way - definitely not HyperTech, i have a million and one reasons why.

I too will recommend race pace. Ben is without doubt "The Man" and knows his stuff. He is not cheap nor expencive and charges what his expertise is worth and when you are talking about such an expensive motor as an RB26 to rebuild I wouldn't take the chance.

"A penny worth of prevention is better than a pound worth of cure".

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
