Bill keen doesn't tune at Turbo Tune.. He's the brother of the Turbo Tune's owner.

Bill does all the turbo stuff at his place on Marion road. Can't remember the name of the business. ATS or something.

Bill does do good deals with hybrid turbo's.

He quoted around 2k for any type of hybrid buildup. (GT30 600hp core) with either a .6? or .8? exhaust housing. Basically he said try the the .6 exhaust a/r then for no charge you can try the .8? exhaust a/r.

I got my ebc put in at boostworx the other day for a very reasonable price (the cheapest i could find) and cant say a bad word about the service, my car was in and out in 2 hours as agreed with the ratios checked and a new power readout.

I have been to a few other performance shops and have been overcharged and dissappointed..... IMHO it's not always a case of "you get what you pay for"

As for servicing and fitting stuff like g/boxes etc... i have and always will take my car to nisscare (pt adel) where i usually deal with brenton (on leave atm). Good prices and always reliable.

Tried Tilbrooks and had a bitter sweet experience. Mark seems like a nice bloke and I have some faith in his diagnostic ability as he lifted the bonnet, listened for about 20 seconds and discovered about 3 vacuum leaks!

Then he passed it over to Mick..........he's a fast worker.....too fast for my liking......felt rushed and the results reflected his haste! Left me with a big bill, an expensive list of things to replace, a car that was less powerful, had a big flat spot and was chewing over 20l/100km!! Go figure :confused:

Matt (whatsisname) was kind enough to respond to my message of despair and suggested Shaun at Boostworx. Although some things are yet to be resolved, Shaun got stuck into it, got it running nicely again with power and economy back in balance again. As an added bonus, his bill for the tuning and fabrication work was very reasonable. He da man!!

Boostworx - highly recommended (I'll be back..........!!) :)

ive taken my 2 door 31 to turbo tune since i bought it, for any mechanical repairs. Treated well, price is a little dear i think, but its good for peace of mind. Ill be going back for a service/tune and camber adjustment alignment on the front wheels in a few weeks, ill post my experience

One of the lads at work runs a very tidy R31 GTS-X and swears by 'Fours and More' over at Pooraka. Supplied and fitted his Silver Top RB20 and have looked after the car ever since. Very reasonably priced and good workmanship.

I believe they have recently set up a Dyno facility too.

Would have tried them out before but I live on the other side of town and Shaun is much more convenient for me.

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
