Im pleased to announce that garageREG can finally offer this service to people in the uk, its been a long road and alot of r&d but the machine is now dialed in after a few issues with a coolant pump.

this service is not a miracle cure for damaged housing, merely a refresh of the existing surface

have recently built two motors, one with brand new oem and the other with our resurfaced housings and compression when tested at the same intervals was equal to the new oem housings which i wasnt expecting

points to remember before typing!
our service DOES
• refinishes surfaces of housings that are worn (mirror shiny) to almost oem finish = better compression
• takes away MINOR marks and LIGHT scoring
• remove chatter marks

our service DOES NOT
• repair flaked chrome
• deep gouges caused by apex seal damage after det
• cracks around spark plug openings caused by heat/high boost and poor tuning

we are currently working on the spot chrome repair for gouges that are not all the way into the aluminium

so, some pics

feed chick\'s 600hp half bridge motor that dropped a plug electrode at wot (see light score by exhaust port) and by leading plug hole, not to mention a prev oiling issue that put heavy wear on the whole housings during dyno tuning and using "bendy" seals we had to make do with at the time due to stock of our preferred seal being non existent , i feel this is a very good example













first pass of the machine



after









please excuse the light, i have a glass roof on my factory and pictures are very hard to take, i hope you get the idea.

this service is available through me directly or from my bum buddies

topgear stockport

there will be a cleaning charge of £20 per housing if they turn up to me oily and dirty before they go on the cnc so soak them in some fuel for a day and give them a scrub

additional soda blasting of the exterior can also be done for £35 per housing to make them look like new

price for the re-finishing is £125 per housing and pictures of housings would be needed prior to the work being undertaken to save dissapointment

thanks

There should be a different release bearing and rod with the hks clutch, if you use oem the clutch won\'t operate properly

most aftermarket irs diffs do not survive long on the strip due to being installed incorrectly with correct lash and contact for crown and pinion not being set right.

my advice to you guys would be, get seat time, change small things at a time, get those right then move on or you will be forever chasing your tail, but hey, what do i know

hope to see you at the track next year running the numbers liam :)

*edit, to date, 1 driveshaft inner cup ;) no fancy axles or diff braces, just good susp and geometry, a couple of orings will be your savior on an irs car*
#13
yep and in theory you should have a stronger rear end than robs too as you have willdays old axles right?

you\'ll break the diff casing before you actually break the diff itself!

there is also the proper option that drag racers use to build boost, retard 25deg and add a percentage more fuel and a rev limit, proper 2step. ill be using that function as it comes built into my ecu and is usually activated by a clutch switch

tried it on my road car at pod and broke both axles when i jumped off the clutch lol

what wall material you using grant?
