M35 Tuning

Hey my mechanic says he knows a bloke who can tune GTRs and Stageas without any piggy back.

He's cracked the factory ECU's and can access everything.

I haven't met him yet but it's pretty exciting, maybe won't have to drop 1K on a daughter board and install.

I wouldn't mind knowing how much more you can get out of the VQ25DET with factory afm, turbo and injectors.

Not interested in E85, considering going for the Hypergear G1.

Will post updates as I get along.

I bet he is talking about c34 stageas. As mentioning gtr and m35 in one sentence would make no sense as the ecus are not even slightly similar.

But great news if he has, but until i see it i am very very skeptical

No, he started on the R35 and has also done M35.

Played around on the circuit boards and analysed how they work.

Curious to know what software he uses.

Next question is pm35 or nm35. PM can be hacked using uprev software.

Not trying to shut down what has been said. But we have heard this so many times before and nothing ever comes of it.

The issue with the nm35 is that the ecu is nothing like any other nissan ecu.

Hopefully he is right though and another tuning option might be available.

Where is your mechanic located?

If he's telling the truth, he's about to get quite busy.

Is it Toshi? He mentioned basic reprogramming a few years back if there was enough interest.

I have heard of many attempts to hack the stock ecu, but I am yet to see anyone locally unlock it, I can't even get a decent uncorrupted copy of the stock rom, with that theoretically a hex programmer could work out the maps and perhaps adjust certain aspects of the tune. I'm just not holding my breath for a decent solution any time soon, even if he has managed to communicate with the processor.

My bet would be "a guy" is Toshi.

We were discussing him bringing over the software from Japan that would allow rewriting of the stock ECU in much the same way as UpRev can for the PM35's.

Cost was far too prohibitive at the time though. so perhaps there is another option that has been presented... or he has the software now due to requests from some deep-pocketed R35 owners?

Even though I don't own the 2.5t, I would still very much like to see a remap option become available and the results of a "real" tune.

So much history, so much Stagea love :wub:

If you need a stock ECU, let me know as I have one in bubble wrap here.

Less people know due to not investing money for little to no return. The market for skylines/silvias etc is much higher with easier tuning options where we are a very small percentage of the market.
