Shortly the crew at ESP will have their 4WD dyno ready,but there's really only Pete at Autotech Services and DTS in Fyshwick and Jake's Performance in Mitchell,all 2WD. Me? I'd hold out for ESP's unit:it'll be worth it!

ESP? LTSjayce have they been around long? Can i ask where they are located?

Purchased my car a couple of weeks ago (after about a year without an import) and i would like to get it tuned by a good and reputable workshop, it has a mines computer in it and was wondering if any tuner in Canberra would have mines software?

ESP have been around for a while,flying under the radar of normal,everyday tuning. They're most noted for their big hitting gold street/drag supra and the 513 AWKW STi WRX 'Diablo'. They've moved to new,bigger premises on Gilmore Road,Queanbeyan. It's the old Capital Harley Davidson building,about halfway down the road. Daniel(AKA 'Shafty' from his days at Shaftmasters) and Glenn are champions;nice fellas that'll listen to what you want from your car.

As for the Mines software,I'm unaware of anyone in Aus' that's got the stuff. From the little info' leaked out of Mines,I believe it's a flash-type software;a reflashed ECU is their speciality. There are people capable of doing such work in this country. Wheather or not ESP has dealt with the Mines gear,I can't be sure. Howvere,they'll have a red hot crack at getting a solution for you.

Just slightly off-topic,but still to do with tuning,I'll still back Ed' & Anthony at Integra Automotive. Whilst they don't have their own dyno,they have a few at their disposal,and are tops at looking after imports. Could be worth a call!

Hope this helps... J

Jayce is on the money re the Mines ecu, Blitz Access ecu is along the same lines. Chiptorque in Nerang are about the only people I know in Oz with a 4wd dyno that can reflash after installing their own chip. I understand Dr Drift in Melb can also do it but not sure of the contact details or dyno access. Some people seem to get very good results with the Jap 'flashed'ecu - but you really need to run it up on the dyno and see, at least for safety sake.

Afaik DTS dyno is 4wd, at least it was when I went there.

Cheers

if you do a search it should yield some results. there was also an HPI article some time ago and from memory they found the pre tuned ecu was very rich with not a lot of gain. the thing with those ecus is that you don't really know for sure what they are tuned for although there are guidelines.

warm idle should be about 950 rpm cold about 1100 but then again it could be the ecu.

cheers

Shut up beau...

Anyway back to business.

Trojan in mitchell do my work for me. Very good. Know more about Skylines than Nissan. They currently use the dyno at jakes. See John.

As for Mines computers. As far as I know they are virtually untunable. They are mostly used in conjunction with other hardwear like Apexi SAFC's for example.

So I might have to think about getting something easier to tune like a power fc. Seems to be a popular choice for the gtr's. Might wait till i get back from overseas and see how much money i have left.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      Lock up the old for sale / wtb threads.

      Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
