The Navara is powered by a 2.3L twin-turbo diesel engine (in later models). We offer performance packages to improve towing torque, throttle response & all-round drivability.

Built around the 3.0L 4JJ1 engine, the D-Max is a favourite among tradies & tourers alike. We have diesel tuning packages available to boost torque and make the most of its towing capability.

Taken my 2017 BMW M140i here twice and have been extremely happy with the level of professionalism and care taken.

First visit was for a new HPFP and spark plug install and the second for a routine service both completed with professional care and diligence that a lot of garages have lost.

Anton was always happy to answer questions and quote me fair prices even over the weekend which i appreciate for someone who is constantly busy Mon – Fri.

Thanks to all the hard working people here for providing the care that people want for their vehicles, high performance or not.

Extremely happy with my tune from Anton on my R34 GTT. Have had multiple tunes from Anton now and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Great care is taken in all aspects of the tuning which some tuners tend to neglect such as cold start and drivability. Highly recommend Anton!

Per Australian Consumer Law, tuning a diesel engine won’t automatically void your warranty. Manufacturers or dealers can only deny a claim if they can prove the modification directly caused the fault. In practice, they may deny coverage if they detect ECU remaps & other aftermarket modifications, even if the fault isn’t clearly related. If you’re unsure, check your vehicle’s warranty terms or speak with your dealer before booking a tune.
