I'm going through imports101 actually. So they basically do a to ur door service. Organise everything and other than pay them money (the hardest part!) you don't HAVE to do anything. I'm getting Danny to give me run downs on everything that is getting down, how they go about it, who they go through, etc etc so next time (cmon, you all know there'll be one :P) I can do it myself, or at least the majority anyway).

So I guess my answer is I'll tell you how I (they) went about it when its done :D

Boostworx is also good.

Shaun tunes the better known hipo street Skylines getting around Adelaide.

Not to mention he's pulled ~280rwkw out of a stock RB25DET & an internal gate turbo, it appears to be holding together perfectly fine.

What better known Skylines has Shaun tuned?

I'd recommend Mark Tilbrook from personal experience.

he tuned one of our member "whatisname"'s car, which has 299.1rwkw? :)

i go to boostworx as well, it's good to go to a workshop that the owner has loads of exp. and he is the only one do all the job.

Looks like Mark Tilbrook uses Tim Possingham to tune these days.

Tim is a good tuner. He tunes safe.

If Tim is tuning the car I don't have an issue. If its some other hack then I wouldn't get my car tuned at Tilbrooks.

Back to boostworx.

Freebaggin (~280kw on stock motor) & whatsisname 299.1rwkw.

Darrens R32 RB30DET (that will be making upwards of 350rwkw soon) and my RB30DET (~300rwkw) will also be tuned there once it is run in.

----

It really depends where you live..

Down southish - Boostworx.

Up North - Tilbrooks (Providing its Tim that does the tune)

Always a topic that generates much debate (mostly heated!)

I know both Tim (Tilbrooks main tuner) and Shaun (Boost worX) personally. Both are excellent blokes and both have a wealth of performance tuning knowledge. I would recommend either of them for tuning work.

For all round tuning 'and' performance work I would recommend Shaun without hesitation. I have been taking my car to Boost worX for some time now. Before that I used RPM (once owned by Tim and later managed by Shaun!). As I know Shaun reasonably well he always looks after me. I have never used Tilbrook Auto and Dyno but I do know and have chatted to Mark on many occasions. He is a decent bloke.

i kno tilbrooks has experience with skylines. he dyno'd my mates et and got 100fwkw outta it runnin on 15psi. but he had a fairl bad fuel dump. tilbrooks was recommended to my mate by the mechanic at jap-tech

RPM are under new management.

I don't think they are dodgy.

I used to take my car there when Tim owned it a couple of years ago.

Since then up until this RB30DET I haven't really done any mods (Rb30det's are damn expensive) :/

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
