Happy New Year! Even though still small, thanks to you all we managed to triple our Instagram following this year! That couldn't be done without our amazing customers whom are providing us with the crazy projects which make up the content we are able to post. Moving forward in this new year we hope to take on even more of these projects which set us apart. We have quite a few in the lineup that we are really excited for, think our followers will enjoy, and that will cha...llenge us. These challenges come not only in project difficulty, but also in continuously aiming to up our product and service quality, our shop organization and flow, and the new processes and technology in which we use to arrive at a final product that we pride ourselves in. Once again, (and we can't say this often enough) thank you to everyone that has supported us this year. Whether that was with a project, a follow on social media, sharing/commenting/liking our posts, we appreciate you! Let us know in the comments what type of things you'd like to see this year, so we can continue to step up the social media end of things and show people the side of this industry that they'd like to see!

Well, all the @link_ecu orders are in! We can't thank everyone enough for trusting us with their hard earned money, to supply them with some of the best products we use on a daily basis. RX7, GTR, GTT, multiple Storm and Fury X's, Thunder, MXS dash, numerous pin kits, loom kits, and sensors... We got it all during this sale!... If you need ANYTHING Link, let us know and we'll help you get exactly what you need. We are knowledgeable not only in the features and sales of the products, but have been tuning Link for 10 years! WE know Link. WE are your Island @link_ecu dealer!

PLEASE READ!!! ALL LINK ECU ORDERS ARE PLACED!!! From all of us at Carmena Performance and Link ECU, we just want to say thank you for everyone's support throughout the year, and participation during this massive Black Friday sale! We did our RECORD HIGH single order during those 3 days and we promise no one will be disappointed with what they've ordered!... That being said, with the increased holiday season shipping upon us, COVID-19 drastically inflating that, and Link's increased sales, we do expect a slightly longer than normal shipping time (1-2 weeks). Just to stay ahead of things, we would like to let everyone who ordered know that it looks like we may receive this order in a couple shipments (depending on the inventory at their different stock locations). To make sure we receive all items ordered, we would like to wait until all of them come in before contacting the people who jumped on this deal. We WILL contact you when your order is ready to go, but also look out for our post, as we will announce when it's all in and ready to go. THANK YOU AGAIN!

Our Datsun Doctor has turned into a Witch Doctor as he practices a little Voodoo on this GT350R engine assembly! Give a follow and stick around as we get this together and back into the car with some great parts from @fordperformance, @manticclutchusa, @american_racing_headers, @magnaflow, @lingenfelterlpe, @arpbolts, @atiracing, and more!

The making of a 4 to 1 turbo collector. ---------------- @s.custom.fab Making a 4 to 1 turbo collector for an upcoming project, using the @linder_power_systems_lpsfab pipe cutting jig. All that's left is the welding! We'll also have to determine the exact turbo that will be going on the project so we can put the correct flange on this collector. Looking at trying out the @garrettmotion G Series, so be on the lookout for that!

We got some more tweaks done on the Evo 6 and set up the cyclic idle and anti-lag using, you guessed it, the @link_ecu. If you haven't seen this build before, it is absolutely stuffed full of quality goods that we would be lost without. Thanks to all these insane suppliers for making quality products we use on a regular basis. Contact us if you need the hook-up on any of them for your build!! ... @mishimoto Rad & Oil Cooler @fullracemotorsports Turbo Manfold @garrettmotion Turbocharger @turbosmarthq Wastegates & BOV @injectordynamics 1700cc Injectors @magnaflow Mufflers @drydenmsports Diff Swap @driveshaftshop Driveshaft and Axles @aemelectronics Sensors, Meth Setup @knfilters Massive Air Filter @extremeturbosystems Intercooler @aeromotive Fuel Pumps @brembobrake All Around @vibrant_performance Fab Components @avid1wheels Wheel Setup @optimabatteries Battery @platinumracingproducts R35 Coil Kit @link_ecu Evo PnP ECU

Just a little tidbit for the older generations.

I caught the Rockstar Datsun Doctor busting out some #davidleeroth, competing with the Bitchin' Camaro for which can belt it out louder . Just a quick overview of the work we've done on the '67 Camaro project: Handling : Ridetech Stopping : Wilwood Disc Brakes... The Noise : Magnaflow Some carb tweaks, cleanup, and the new, wider, rear wheels should all be done next week. Then we can get the ride height and wheel alightment sorted. We'll get some good exhaust sound clips when we pull it outside and let this beast breathe. This will be one sweet ride!! #chev #chevy #chevrolet #camaro #ss #v8 #murica #muscle #americanmuscle #ridetech #suspension #magnaflow #exhaust #stainless #fab #fabrication #weld #welding #wilwood #brakes #victoria #bc #custom #performance #carmenaperformance #rockstar

Our Datsun Doctor (@mitchguindon) showing us how you can do a quick and dirty, but effective, test on your cylinder heads! This is useful if the cylinder head is no longer attached to the block and a leak down test can't be performed. #datsundoctor #techtip #subaru #cylinderhead #mechanic #machineshop #valvejob #shop #tech #custom #performance #carmenaperformance #victoria #bc #canada #yyj

Our Datsun Doctor (@mitchguindon) reflecting on his R32 that was lost due to bring rear-ended and then sandwiched between the vehicle infront of him. The car (as you can see) was fully stripped of all salvageable parts. The 500+hp engine and transmission are now mounted in his Datsun project, awaiting some attention to be reserected and once again be a street terror in a new body! #datsundoctor #datsun #nissan #skyline #r32 #r33 #r34 #r35 #godzilla #rhd #wrecked #detroyed #totalled #crash #engineswap #custom #performance #carmenaperformance #victoria #bc #canada #inhouse

Customer stopped by today in his gorgeous R34 GTR V-Spec for an oil change and to talk about a couple future projects. Such a geat looking car with the right colour combo, sitting on the proper @nismo wheels. #nissan #skyline #gtr #godzilla #vspec #r34 #r32 #r33 #r35 #nismo #brembo #japan #jdm #datsundoctor #custom #performance #carmenaperformance #victoria #bc #canada #yyj
