try posting in the victoria section rather than GAD for a better response..

i think you will find that one of the owners of ice performance is a member of these forums and the SAU-victoria club (LEEWAH is his nickname) and that half of the victorian skyline drivers swear by this workshop

i wouldn't trust ice with my car...

won't go into it,  but a couple of friends had bad experiences with them.

probably best you didnt.

last thing we need are "my mates, mates" storys again.

EVery workshop has a horror story, it just depends who's the one telling that story.

Get over it

I beg to differ. Ice Performance was originally started by 4 people which included Nigel, Gerald, myself and another friend.

Since then the last person has pretty much disappeared. Just because I don't work there doesn't mean that I don't own a share of Ice Performance.

I live in the county and it’s hard to find people here who know anything about modifying or tuning Skylines. I have been to ICE twice very happy with the prices and the results. I will also add I find most mechanics arrogant and unhelpful but these guys are the exact opposite I highly recommend them.

R31Nismoid, I know as far as posts are concerned I'm a newbie and to you and your network of friends here I may be out of line in saying this but here goes.

I think your previous comment is not warranted. I may be misinterpreting the demeanor of your comment but to someone like me I find it pretty rude (even though its not directed to me).

I think MerlinTheHapyPig made his statement and was professional enough to hold back any word of mouth comments. If a few of my friends told me not to go to a work shop I will surly listen to them. All he was doing is letting renegadeMR2 know his personal opinion.

I understand ICE PERFORMANCE is a contributor to this forum and I'm grateful for any help they provide as this is a great site. But just because they are a contributor I don't think admin should automatically defend them. I know Nigel is a member of these forums, why not let him to have his say. All I'm asking is for you to stay neutral.

Don't get me wrong R31Nismoid, I do agree with your comments but I don't think the "Get over it" was warranted.

I'm sorry if my post has gone of on a tangent.

Hear what you are saying mate and nicely worded reply by yourself.

Ash is good guy and having met him a few times in person can say this. Dont take anything too personally IMO that he types he is a decent bloke and means well.

:( B)

Where is the emoticon for giving someone a clip round the ear when you need it! :P

      Been down in Tassie for 2 weeks (a cruise, not a race for once) but spent a little time on her when I got back. I worked out the injector settings in the PowerFC were not correct for nismo 555s, set those to 66% +10ms and added a little air at closed throttle, set the timing (approximately, because it has some weird non 15o cells around idle) and now she starts and idles properly. She purrs like a kitten (ignore the co2 alarm in the background, I did  ) 20250518_171052.mp4 Next step, off for run-in, tuning and alignment!

      Went to a drift practice day at a local circuit (held on the reserve parking area behind the grandstand) for the first time in about 15 years. Some kei cars were drifting as well, a not so surprising Suzuki Carry truck, and two 1st gen Daihatsu Copens that were converted to rear wheel drive(!) using Daihatsu Boon X4 transfer case, prop shaft and rear diff, obviously omitting the front driveshafts. They looked really fun to slide. I heard that they cost "about half" as much as a Nissan Silvia etc to run.  On the track 'Tech M' a local BMW tuning garage had a customer track day. Mainly recent models but there was one E36 which looked ancient among all the current models. It was cool watching the drifting and then turning around and seeing random people thrashing their M3/4s  central-circuit-drift-practice-2025-05-18-long-yt.mp4

      Upgrade an rb25neo

      By Tekitsune · Posted

      I would like to keep it around 15k but if I need more to make it reliable and not have to worry about the car breaking I can go more. It's my project car so I'm just trying g to figure out what needs to be in it i know basic things like turbo cams injectors I'm just unsure of the size and the specifics so I'm spending alot of time on Google and its mostly rb25 and rb26 not alot on neo
