Hi , I have 33 with FMIC exhaust , hks pod, apexi neo AFC and putting in a Electronic boost controller . I was wondering where i can take it for dyno tuning in and around the brisbane area and does anyone have an idea of how much it will cost?

another tick for godzilla motorsport

have been to a number of tuners, and godzilla have been the stand out of them all and specializes in PFC and other aftermarket ecus. Tunes are performed with laptop software ( none of this handheld shit) to get the ultimate tune right through the rev range.

proof: Mark's 1000hp 8 sec r32 gtr. obviously shows that mark knows his shit and knows what hes doing.

do yourself a favour and do these first.

new spark plugs gapped to 0.8mm

new oil

new oil filter.

if you have stock coils, tape them up good with electrical tape.

the cost always ends up higher than what is quoted because you increase boost and power and you find the spark gives up and you hit missfire issues.

so unless you have split fire coils already, and don't want to spend $500+ on them or get the shits when you book in for a tune and they can't do it cause of spark issues, do the above first.

then they will only charge you for the install/tune.

got the quote today he said $500 with my basic mods, turbo back exhaust, 12psi boost, R34 cooler, pod, which seems pretty good

sparkies already gapped at 0.8, coils removed and refitted with high temp silicone (was getting miss firing at 10 psi, had heaps of coils cracks) , hmmm oil has only done a few thousand clicks should probably change it I guess but that depends on level of motivation.

400KW is #$%^%^ crazy!!!

not sure, but it could just be the same time to tune... my old tuner who was an autronic specialist in sydney did mine within a reasonable time, same time as the power fc i had before. they probs just have a flat rate for tuning, as my old tuner did no matter what ecu... either way you'll be satisfied with the results, and its not that much considering they know hands down what they are doin i spose

hehe yeh 400 is fun, were gonna have it tuned up again just before jambo get around 450 out of it... got the gtr rear end going in now

I just moved in to tingalpa; so there are like 3 min away, wonder who much its going to cost to do the following,

Front mount (already got from crashed R33, with piping)

Dump / Front pipe

Hi / Low Boost setting - Dont want to spend on ECU still

Still running Nissan Coil pack though..

i have stock coils and i didnt need to tape them up lol, when changing plugs the .8 gap is a good idea but u also want to go to a colder temp range. or was that hotter :thumbsup:

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
