mate got a turbo 700 built there and also a diff with 3.7's and a spool he gives it absolute hell in a 5ltr ute and has had no issues did probably 20000k's in it at least
there are some dodgy builders out there thats for sure, prior to going to race shift he got aonther shop to build his turbo 700 blew it within 3000k's snapped an input shaft after he specifically told him to build it to hold the power it has

11-06-09, 19:08 GMT+10#13 That sucks mate, i wouldnt let them get off that easy unless they told you there was no warranty. Thats bull**** i rekon. I think what you need to remember is if a name is well known and big its obveously going to be expensive, just stick to word of mouth because your better looked after i rekon.
goodluck anyway

12-06-09, 14:15 GMT+10#15 I would steer clear of RACE Sh1T, op's sorry RACE SHIFT. I went through 2 auto's through him in a week! My younger brother also went there around the same time, same problem. Does not like honoring his warranty that he clearly gives out. I would go to Preston diff's, if you had any problems with faulty items i know they would be more then happy to replace them. I got my auto and diff built through them along with my cousin. I couldn't be more happy!

14-06-09, 20:31 GMT+10#19 I'm having my LSD reconditioned and 3.9's fitted this week at Preston Autos & Differentials, charging me $1200 for the work. Also freshening up the automatic with a Stg.2 shift kit and tranny cooler.
I had an auto built my Race Shift a couple of years ago and it was ****in ****house, don't recommend them to anyone and the bloke running the joint seem dodgy as.
