1995 r33 GTST - Am I being ripped off

Hello everyone, I own a r33 1995 gtst and I'm wanting to tune it. So I've gone to a tuning shop near me to get a quote.

The quote is;

- Greddy T517Z bolt on turbo

- HKS boost controller

- 880cc injector upgrade

- Spark plugs

- Plazmaman Intake Plenum

- Plazmaman bigger throttle body

- Greddy front mount intercooler

- Upgraded fuel pump

- Adjustable fuel pressure regulator

- LINK ECU plug and play complete set with sensors (MAP sensor), not using air flow meter anymore

- Clutch Kit

- Labour to install parts above

- Setup car and dyno tune

For all the work above you will be looking at $13k-$15k - PRICE IS IN AUD

 

I feel like this is a bit of a rip off, and for that price i should be getting some better higher performance parts, but i could be wrong hence why I've posted here asking for answers.

 

Thanks!

That's not a "tune".  That is a substantial performance modification. 

 

What did you ask for?  They didn't quote all of that to a guy who walked in and said "I want a tune on my r33".  You must have given them some sort of power number to reach.

So I ran through your parts list, googling for the exact part when I could and estimating when I had to. Prices in USD

Turbo   1800

BC          350

Inj           400

Plugs        25

Intake   1500

FMIC     1200

Pump      100

FPR         150

ECU      1600

Clutch    500

 

TOTAL  7620

 

Convert that to AUD and it's $11,283 at current exchange rates. With those parts I would expect an even larger bill, to be honest. $2k-4k for install as well as tuning is a bargain in my opinion.
