LOL, i know what you mean about ASE, not cheap at all. That's who done all my custom work. But, you do get what you pay for.(in most cases anyway).

Doesn't matter if its done in the backyard, or at a well known performance workshop, if it works well, who cares.
Sounds good anyway mate.I bet you've shattered many people out there, who have spent big $$ on there cars?
Yes, racing on the streets isn't wise anyway.save it for the track.

Might be there, but weather is supposed to be wet all weekend so i'm told.

come along adam. wouldnt mind havin a gander at ur car. wouldnt mind a spin either if ur feeling generous. (no workshop bagging, EDITED)

PSI
12-11-04, 02:05
come along adam. wouldnt mind havin a gander at ur car. wouldnt mind a spin either if ur feeling generous. Dave at ASE, ive heard some dodgey **** about him. mates experiences with him etc. and from my experiences, he talks a bit of ****. i dunno, maybe im doin him a disservice, but ive seen some of his work on mates cars and wasnt all that convinced, neither were they. he did a reasonable job on my cooler tho.

If i can make it, i will.(weather permitting).
Yes, i know what you mean with ASE, got a couple of mates who aren't happy with there work either. But we'll talkabout that another time hey?
I was lucky, i had dave do all my work when he was at Lonsdale.It was just him,and another guy used to help out a bit.
So Dave did all the work himself basically, and it was killer.My car was there for about 5 weeks, but it was well worth it. I think he tried to get to big too soon. They moved down to Edwardstown, had a number of guys working for him and the QUALITY dropped. Should've stayed small, and he'd be booked out for years!! I'm glad i got all mine done when i did.

I know another guy who does all the same stuff as ASE, does killer work and half the price.Its just him, and he takes pride in what he produces.

Speak soon,

Adam_PSI[/QUOTE]

wanna give us some more details on this? very keen to send business his way if he's as good as what you say.

Since we're talking about workshop's i thought i might throw in a bit of input. Myself and my best mate have been burnt, ripped off whatever you want to call it a few times in the last couple of years. We now think we have found a quality workshop with guys who know their Shi* and don't charge through the roof. It called Graham west's Workshop on Marion rd at Parkholme. It has a 4WD and 2WD dyno and they only charge $45 for a power run and $70 for a dyno tune (cheapest i've heard of). My mate got his car done yesterday, they were quick, didn't hold onto the car for ages and did a good job. Their dyno is the one that was used at autosaloon.

12-11-04, 14:32
is that the place that always has the wrx's in it?

VLTurbsEx
12-11-04, 18:53
well it had one there when i was there yesterday (thursday)
dunno though if they always have them there, probably is though cause i think they r the only other 4wd dyno in sa apart from turbo tune and from what i've heard you either love them or hate them!

MONSTER
12-11-04, 19:35
dave at turbo tune is a good bloke. ive taken my car there a few times and he's fixed my problem and sent me on my way for nothing. however, he is a very close business associate of my uncles, which probly helps.

vlt5spwag
12-11-04, 21:55
is urs the one with vx gts wheel on it?

haha lol :) i wish
no my car is quite average! straight but crappy paint.
gets me to work on time every day and goes ok for being basically stock.

VLturbsEx: S & J automotive have a 4wd dyno as well. v good with their wrxes

The guys name is LEROY, check out his website. www.boetieracing.net
Does awesome work, does everything u can think of and more.Tell him Adam with the white/silver calais turbo recommended him to you. He'll look after you.
He used to have a TE Gemini with a 350 in it, but now is putting a 13BT in it.
As for that workshop your mentioning, those prices are very good.
power runs are normally around the $60 mark everywhere else.If your happy with them, stay with them mate.

Speak soon mate.

Apparently the commodore car club is also having a cruise on saturday night ,meeting at TTP @ 7.00-7.30pm.

who's ur mate and what's his vlt go and look like?

Didn't end up going on either cruise.
My mates car (hi psi) from the forums.It is a all white SL with VT SS rims. Very tidy car, and it goes damn fast.Best run to date is 11.2 @ 125mph. Has a bigger stall in it now, and will runs 10's easy when he races it next.

i ended up cruising into town/bay around 9:30pm, not really a lot out, started to rain a little, so went home around 11:30pm. Didn't want to race anyone with slippery roads, it's bad enough in the dry!!

PSI.

14-11-04, 02:14
are u talking about rob's car? and his mate angelo has a 300rwkw all white hdt kitted vl?

MONSTER
14-11-04, 02:15
u should of given me a call man. i was out on the highway for a bit. mck cruise was crap.

PSI
14-11-04, 11:59
are u talking about rob's car? and his mate angelo has a 300rwkw all white hdt kitted vl?

Yeah, that's him(Rob).
I know Angelo as well, nice car. Dont know about 300rwkw though, its never been on a dyno, or been raced, to my knowledge!! It is quick though, and Angelo is a good bloke too.

PSI.

MONSTER
14-11-04, 12:32
yeah, i speak to angelo quite a bit. his car goes like a jet. and he says that his mate rob's car is even faster. but its in pieces atm.

angelo's would be very near to 300rwkw.

MONSTER
14-11-04, 12:43

Man, that was ages ago, it's come along since that night, TRUST ME!!!!
Sorry for the smart ass comment, always wanted to say that though. At least you guys knew i was only stiring the pot!!
I have a soft spot for XR6T's, think they are awesome cars, with A LOT of potential.

yeah, i knew u were joking. ur mates in the car had a laugh if i remember rightly. u told me at the time u had 285rwkw. it sounded like a jet. i was very interested in what u were running, which is why i asked, but at the same time, trying not to come across as one of those wa*nkers who asks every1 on the road that same question.

was a dark blue xr6t. my mates car. xr6ts are good, but vlts are better ;)

Yeah, robs is very quick.I wonder if i've made any ground on him with my new cam change? I guess i'll wait and see what it pulls on DEC 6th.

Dont worry about being the black sheep, just be a good days cruising.
You'll get there, we all didn't have big power when we first got our VLT's.

Shortly after xmas, i'm pulling the engine out, and doing a bullet proof bottom end.Then its going on the engine dyno for a real tune.Looking for 600-650HP, and ultra low 10's.

Hey Guys, not free for a couple of weekends but some time early december.

Me either, early december would be OK. Maybe the weekend AFTER the street drags,DEC 4th. That would make it the 11th or 12th, depending what day we went.

Yeah, i'll bring my digital camera along.
