linedup33 - Sam's prices (Dr Drift) totally depend on the ECU in question.

R33GOD doesn't know what he is quoting about unfortunately :woot:

Considering the fact the ECU already have a socket/board in it. Then prices are reduced yet again i would imagine.

But lets not speculate on what we don't know :thumbsup:

Chad - I would give Sam the thumbs up for stock ECU's. He's been at it since 2002 and my old car was one of the first he did way back when i used to deliver pizza to the bloke :sorcerer:

He did a couple more for me along the way after that (and about a dozen other friends), let alone diagnose a number of electrical problems some big workshops failed to do.

Give him a buzz, and workout a deal.

mmm my ecu has been socketed and tuned by dr.drift. im not happy with it and wanting to get a tuner who is very experienced with tuning the zeds...he is a specialist in tuning silvias, although he can do other cars. but im just not happy with the tune unfortunatly....

ive given created motorsport a call aparently the guy who tunes there said he was from new zealand and has done somewhat 200-300 zeds there, aparently being the only one who remapped ecu over there...im just waiting for a reply with some prices from him....

dr drift prices are cheap, and also makes me wonder why...after that i wasnt happy with the result...maybe i should give him a call and tell him how i feel....i just feel a bit rude to comment his expertise and kind of dropped it and just turned a frown to it...

for those that want to know his prices are

$100-150: socket ecu

$200-250: custom tune

$150: dyno time and hour.

I certainly hope that I'm more than approachable, and certainly happy to look into it for you Chad. Feel free to drop me an e-mail detailing your concerns...

Just a couple of Qs?

Was it fine after the tune and gradually got worse? Or was it just bad straight up? Just trying to figure out if it may just be a faulty sensor, or some other problem, or maybe it just needs more dyno time...

ohh whoops lol, i didnt know you on the forums lol....

i just feel a bit rude to comment his expertise and kind of dropped it and just turned a frown to it...

sam i just felt a bit rude to question what was done etc.....

i mean i let it go in my own hands because in the first instance u told that you specialise in silvias etc but can tune other nissans, and i agreed to taking the tune up on that basis....obviously the zeds are more complicated, and just a few things were over the place.....k value, timing....i will email you about what i have found to be a little out of place...

car has been running fine, there is nothing wrong with the tune in the operation about the car....everything is working sweet, no error codes etc...

email sent.

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
