Yep is is tuned for the mods you list. and you then go by your self to the dyno to get it checked, He guaranteed me if i didn't get a power increase he would write another tune for me after seeing the dyno sheet.

You can get upto 3 seperate tunes sent to you, dyno all 3 and keep the one that suits your car best and send the other 2 back but it costs a bit extra. He was confident he would get it right first time and he did.

Get it right? Or close enough?

Im not trying to sound negative.

But i cant see how someone in another state can tune your car based on what youve "told" them.

Its just pot luck, and it will never be the best tune either.

For $300 it wouldnt wanna be anymore as the tune will never be as good as paying for someone to do it real-time.

Considering you still have to go to a dyno to check, i dunno... im not convinced

What nismod says has some merit to it though.

He is right if the tuner is with you at the dyno you WILL get a better result.

But I did not want to pay big $$$ for a tune as mine is just a mild upgrade.

mabye i could have got a couple more rwkw out of it but I am happy with the results

And like nismod says, he can only go on what you tell him.

Keep in mind there are litrally 1000s of tuners doing it in japan this way, Including some big names.

and yeah it was $150 + $10 delivery + $30 to get the socket soldered in at a tv shop and $80 for the dyno run so all up $270

so the tune was really only half the cost.

I think nissan tune thier cars ritch from the factory, so theoretically its just a matter of adjusting the 'k' value to get the 12:1 afr, im a noob at tuning, so I have been doing a bit of reaserch with the goal of tuning my car, but I would guess this is all he is doing, then you can fine tune from there, I dunno, I have more reaserch to do, and to buy the equipment :unsure:

And what lean out your engine everywhere - thats dumb, thats why noobs shouldn't tune. To tell you the truth I have no idea how this guys sends his programs out every nissan we see at work either needs a fuel pump or the airflow meters are distrorting the real airflow value or the base timing is out 5 or 10 degrees or there is some dumbass idea typical of cheap nissan owners. The chances of getting the mixtures wrong is so much higher with boosted engines.

S/H Ninja - you said your AFM was maxing out before?

The stock AFM should max out at around 200-205 so it would have been well worth your while upgrading to a z32 and getting the appropriate chip to suit. Try winding 4th right out to redline and see if it actually gets there without cutting ignition. When the AFM voltage reaches 5.1V for 3 secs or more your ECU should automatically cut power.

Plus the most you'll ever see out of a set of RB20 stock injectors is 205-208 rwkw so those injectors of yours would be running at 100% or more which is dangerous if the fuel system decides to hiccup for a split second.

I was thinking the same thing, the afm hit max airflow before but now with more power, hence more airflow it doesnt cut?

Was the before dyno run done on the same dyno as the after?

Lastly, I see the run was done in "shoot 3" where usually it would be shoot 6F. Would that affect the power figure? Or is it just a ramp rate thing?

just been reading this topic and my question may apply somewhat

i've got a stock rb20det motor just turbo back exhaust on 10psi atm

i've also got a r33 s2 turbo which im going to be purchasing shortly and i have a fmic/kit which i'm going to be put on the same time as the turbo

with turbo back exhaust, pod, fmic, r33 s2 turbo, is it safe to run 1bar (14psi) without receiving any boost/fuel cuts.. would i need a remap or chip of my stock ecu?

Also why would you scrub out the Ambiant temps and inlet temps unless you have something to hide?

Me thinks you are only making 180rwkw and your tuner put the sensor on your exhaust.

LOL yeah I really need to do that. I dont give a F*#k what sort of power it makes. altho the dyno guy didn't even put the afr's on the printout so i wouldnt put it past him.

Car feels heaps faster and runs perfectly and I have had it tested with a wideband sensor and it is fine.

s*^t some of you guys are negative.

I was just happy with my results and thought I would share. Perhaps next time I will think twice before sharing my mods with others.

dude, you cant blame them for being negative.

these days you truely get what you pay for, and when something real cheap come along, people always think its a scam unless they see some hard proof. and the proof in this case has been tampered with.

I for one wouldnt trust someone over the web to tune my car. every engine is differant, 2 engines with the exact same mods will never make the same power.

just becarefull, cause the money you saved on a proper tune might have to go towards a new engine......

Steve

He knew what he was doing, and the risk. 200rwkw and a nice smooth curve on an RB20 is the result. Time will tell, but it looks like everything went his way this time. I wouldnt get it done, but congrats on the good result mate, thats a happy RB20.

Hey guys - slightly off topic but does anyone know where in Melbourne is good to get a re-map? I know of a couple of places that do it but I am really after someone reputable - I've heard of a 'few' stories of blown RB20s after having had a remap...which is what I am trying to avoid...!! Its not a matter of cost, I personally would rather retain a complete factory ECU rather than a PFC (if possible)...my car is an R32 GTS-t and mods are;

FMIC

HKS 2535

R32 GTR injectors

Q45 AFM

Walbro pump

Any suggestions would be much appreciated...!!!

Cheers,

Chris

    • I can ship Nismo floor mats to you: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/nismo-floor-mats-for-skyline-r33-bcnr33-stagea-wgnc34?_pos=1&_sid=9278c1467&_ss=r  
    • Here's the link: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6642/misc/G49?frame_no=WGNC34-137122 What you think about it? The same product i found on nengun: https://www.nengun.com/oem/parts/40567/MiPwn5qAMfCfmpxHNDnwn5q9MDAx8J-QiW9sZC1qcC0xMTAtRzQ5LS0wMDE/Floor+Carpet+%2F+Mat+2/0688339eba149c19 Bot i have spoken to 😅 ensured me, that mats are 100% original, oem product. I have my doubts. I also heard what you mentioned, that nengun often offers items that are actual not available... On the other hand mats i found on japanese yahoo or ebay are in poor condition and still quite expensive so i'd rather wait for some better offers. My location - Poland. We literaly don't have ANY market for used Stagea parts so need to search outside Europe.
    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
