I got my Dr Drift chip put in last nite, fairly impressed. Its a nice curve, and the car is heaps smoother. Not a bad mod, as it was his 'stock' chip he didnt even need to tune it, so that saved me a good $100 of dyno time, and 1 hours sleep (which at 12.30am is really really nice). Anyway, see the graph attached.

good to see you've got some nice results from the chip dangerous_daveo. I seemed to also notice more improvement in the midrange when i had mine.

Yeah, a lot of that too (well a bit at least), it just sounds so much better, like smoother, boost sounds smoother. Just really nice. Well spent $380. But I think the $960 on my new head deck was better money :)

How much would a full tune cost from Dr Drift?

Well I was preped up for another $100 (which would have been dyno time) on mine. But it was that good didnt want to waste the money stuffing with it.

So say $450-500 max?

Best to ask him tho if you got an R33, they might be different.

CC - thanks for pointing that out. The problems with the daughter boards vibrating loose only happened a couple of times years ago, and only in S13 SR20's... All S13 SR20's now have adhesive foam stuck to the lid securing the board in place. I am also now using the PLMS boards which have never had a failure to the best of my knowledge. All the CA, RB20, and RB26 remaps all use gold plated machine pin sockets which hold the single eproms extremely secure. All the S15's and R34's all have larger boards attached with fine pitch ribbon cable and secured to the factory case with four screws.

Sam.

R34s - These require a lot more work to make programable, the two options are either the grid board from japan, or the bikirom which costing a bit more has a lot of extra features. There is also considerable amount of time fitting both types of board to the factory ecu. I still haven't finalised prices on these, or developed a good per-tuned map for. We made some good gains on dan's R34 using the bikirom on friday night too...

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
