Ok J Racing is out lol

Farrugia or Barrett Bros you say...

I have new options - any horror stories at Canberra Automotive Refinishers, Craig Hall, or Real Steel Restorations? (Never heard of the last one). These are Shannon's preferred repairers.

My s13 was done at J Racing. I didn't own it at the time but the work wasn't the best.

In J Racings defense, I did speak to Jerry, he is a nice guy. He said he varies quality depending on how much people can afford. Anyway, I'm hopefully taking my S13 back to get fixed up simply because he'll be able to source bits and pieces easier.

I had a little work done by Craig Hall. I don't like their Customer Service. Work was standard, nothing special.

Yes, Canberra Automotive Refinishers in Belco are Shannons Recommended.

Although they did Fix up their Mistakes, they are Not Recommended by me. :/

Unless you want Wet Paint and an Orange Peel Finish.

What happened Shell? Did you get baby puke on the Chaser?

That stuff is Highly Corrosive. :laugh:

It's just panel damage so it could be worse (pic in NSW whore thread if you want a look ;) ).

I should say, we can pick anywhere. Just got the list of preferred places because we don't really have a favourite or "known" place to go.

Everyone I know with cars whether it be hot rods, porches, muscle cars etc, all recommended Farrugia and Barrett Bros

Highly recommend Farrugia for work they did on both our Audis and on our BMW. Problem with them is they generally won't work on older cars. Tried to get them to do some work on the GTR but no dice.

+1 to Real Steel. Naz does lovely quality work and that's who I use for the GTR

    • 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         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
