Hyper is in Malaga Vale St

Xspeed is Zeta Crs Occonor

Chipmaster is somewhere in maddington I think

once again, dont be stupid enough to go elsewhere :)

oks it's decided I'll go auto master tune my car :P

Hyperdrive sounds good...how bout gfx or whatever I saw this white R34 with groundeffects dunno what the heck that is but sounds like tuning company

sky34 where ever you go make sure they have a datalogger for your pfc as it will save a lot of time on the dyno $$$$ and where and tear on the car

without datalogger a lot of companies quote 5 to 6 hours

with datalogger at hyperdrive my first tune took less than two

thats a big different in $$$ at a $100 plus an hour

Sometimes what you pay is what you get. Let's say you go to someone who's not so good, you might have to go back multiple times as they can't seem to tune your car properly. So in the end, you pay more than what you thought you'd do.

A common case back home where i'm from. Take an evo 8 with motec. 3 times into the workshop for a dyno tune, each costing $400 couldn't settle the problem. 1 time at a more reputable workshop and with $900. Everything is settled and good to go. If he had just taken the more exp way. He'd save 1.2k. But of course there are always problems. Even the best of dyno tuners do run into a wall once in a while, so you can't really blame them. It's an art.

Oh yeah, there's an idemnity form if you didn't know, so if they blow up anything in your car, they arn't liable. And if your tuning is bad .. well they always tune it rich cause it dosn't blow ur engine as opposed to lean.. then there is a possibility that your engine will blow too. Factor all these in before picking out a place.

Just my .5 cents worth. :P

Basic R34 with PFC is an easy job most tuners can handle in a few hours max.

Yeah, agree with that. Hahah, my friend had a jun cams, forged pistons, Some aftermarket turbo i think a GT30R? But i'm not sure, and a whole lot of other goodies. 500hp with 600+ NM worth of torque.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
