who is this toshi guy?

does he have a workshop/website or does he work from home??

http://grapevine.com.au/~marzenna/

He's on the forum, just PM him (his name is Toshi on the forum as well). No workshop, but he has a wideband sensor and knock microphone....

^ hahah that rhymes.

Yea i thought that website mrkotter posted up didnt look familiar at all..

Plus the site looks old too..

Toshi, im going to get my car on the dyno tomorrow!!

I will send you a pm with my dyno figures..

If anyone else has any questions feel free to ask..

yes..

another think i'm abit worry..

how fast do u have to drive ur car for the tuning? are there any cops around? cause i don't wanna drive like 80/90kms in the 40 zone (don't have many points left lol). did u do it on the back road or highway..

i'm gonna get mine done next week.

cheers

Ford

I drove on the highway which is a 80 zone.

Few times you take it to redline in 2nd gear.. But you drive normally testing out each gear!!

Like 5th gear up the hill going at 80..

Once initial map is done and tuned, then you go to the freeway which is a 110 zone and test out third gear to nearly redline.

I did mine over double demerits, so you should be fine lol..

But yea be careful of cops..

hahah thanks drew!!

I know you recommened me this about an year ago!! lol

Well i was leaning towards the power fc and i did end up buying it.. But far out it costs soo much to tune and the power fc itself..

I saved myself 1.5k and the remap does the same thing (for stage 1 type mods anyways)

Edited by siddr20

he can remap with bigger turbos, but i guess power fc will be more effective to fine tune things..

But im not gonna go past stage1..

I was power hungry, but im planning to go europe end of year once uni is finally over!! So will need money for that lol

Then next year, start working full-time and save up for a better car plus house :thumbsup:

Well got it on the dyno today..

196.2kw at 10psi

Theres something wrong with my 22dollar bleed valve lol..

I remember at the remap i was trying to increase it, but the guage just wouldnt go past 0.7 bar.

But the car felt a lot more powerful, so thought perhaps my 300dollar guage was faulty lol.. or a leak!!

Anyways on the dyno, it still showed boost at 10psi.

I reckon with 12psi it would be easily 200kw plus

But im happy with my results..

Nope :)

Might go back tomorrow and see if they can still print it out for me?

or perhaps do one run for me for free and check it. But they said it seemed fine.

They gave me another graph with Torque figures (Nm) on the side??

At 130kw, it read as 4500 - top peak

NO idea what that means!!

Edited by siddr20

yeh my dyno dynamics printouts read torque in newtons rather then foot/pound. Although maybe its just set that way.

anway it would be interesting to see how flat your afr's are

Looks like theres more left in that top end too

This is sounding like a hell of a good option for me lol... Only problem is I'm in ACT... Might have to organise a trip to Sydney.

How do you think it'd go on a 33 GTST with a front mount, cat back and a planned boost increase to 9-10psi?

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
