hey guys

i spotted this ksport tuned rom on ebay here: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...ADME:L:RTQ:AU:1

im not sure if it will work with my auto r33 gtst series 1 or not.

so i though i'd ask here before i dove into possibly buying it.

anyone have any experience with these?

cheers

i cant believe someone bid $400 bucks......... squid.

most importers have boxes of them laying around average sell price..... 50-100 bucks.

oh yeah do you get a refund if it does not make 240rwkw like claimed :(

I have one in my 31, runs a bit rich like any jap spec ecu but made a big difference over the stock ecu as the car is much more rev happy now up top.

Also mine has a switch that comes out the back of the ecu to turn the speed limiter off.

thanks for the replies guys, didnt bother with it in the end. went for $501

decided id go for the greddy e-manage ultimate with having an auto. should do the trick. should have it in and tuned in the next few weeks. will let you all know how i go as i know the whole auto/aftermarket ecu sector is a bit confusing at the moment. i might be able to shed some light on things.

any info you guys have regarding this option would also be greatful. i have been searching the forums finding some useful info but it's all still pretty confusing as to what is good and whats not and what works properly.

thanks again

yeah a pfc would be great, its just finding one thats the problem.

and if you do find one they are $1500ish :whistling:

for that much i can get an emanage ultimate, put it in and have it tuned prob with money left over

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
