Hi all..

So i was wondering if anyone has got a remap done from toshi? Road tuned or dyno tuned!!

Would love to hear your thoughts.

For about 500 bucks i think its a good deal.

more info in his thread here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Re...no-t210097.html

Should i do it or not is the question lol

Also if anyone in sydney has got it done, can i come check our your car lol...

Yea i tried calling him today actually.. He was in a meeting.. Will try again today!!

Edit: yea just spoke to him then.. He was very happy with!! Fuel ratios were spot on..

Hmm might give this a go..

I think the remap has a lot more potential than the safc, by the looks of things pointed out by toshi.

Safc, will just basically tune your air fuel ratio's and thats it. Well you adjust the fuel curve, but i think the remap can squeeze a lot more power.

Safc will probably also cost a bit more than the remap.

Hopefully someone else can explain the difference better than me..

Well im gonna give this remap a go next week probably.

Obviously you stated your getting Toshi to do this remap, just let us know where you had to take your car,if he did it on a dyno or street,how much, and roughly how long and seat of pants feel.Especially

down low in the revs.

Toshi did a remap on mine... good bloke, and knows the cars well.

spent nearly 6 hours doing the road tune to get it right...makes a noticable difference.

Best thing with toshi is that if your not happy he will keep going until you are and keeps the car at a safe tune..

If you want to know anything else let me know..

How was the fuel economy after the tune - better, worse or same?

fuel economy after the tune, it was close to the same..but the car has more power.

about 400-450kms (daily driving) per tank of v power (car was tuned on that) a little less on caltex 98 less power too.

Toshi said he could map for fuel economy or map for power...i went power..

Car is a 95 R33 GTST

mods...3inch exaust,pod filter,FMIC.

I increased the boost to from 7 to 10.

other than that the cars engine and turbo is stock.

no dyno yet, drifting i can feel there is a hugh improvment over STD i can hold a lot more speed sliding through corners, its kinda hard to explain but the power is there when i need it..you put your foot down and it goes..:D

There is more power all the way through the rev range and the car is very responsive, so daily driving is still fun too.

When i get there im going to speak to him in more detail.

I rather get the dyno tune done.

Testing on the road- well seems bit dangerous as theres too many factors involved.

I will find out on firday anyways.

Will post up the details then

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
