Hi guys,

OK, as a first step we need some firm (ish) numbers so we can try to convince Toshi to visit us in Brisbane to do some remaps.

If we can get a decent number then it might be worth his visit. We might have to pay a bit more for his airfares, but if we split it between us it would be good.

He has asked on his post how many people in Brisbane want a tune. So express here then we can let him know.

obviously I'm in.

Others who have expressed interest are:

PWND

toddlls (GC)

GTST (??)

I'm really not too sure if he does S14 ECU's (SR20DET), you can have a look at that link to the thread of Toshi (4 posts above - from PWND). Best to ask Toshi himself - his thread or via PM.

At the moment expressions of interest are required as we want to know how much work is up here for him. PWND is helping to look at this as well as we are both very keen judging from his work with cars in Sydney.

He can reflash the stock ECU and gets great results.

The price is cheap and costs only a little more than an SAFC with dyno tune with superior results. It has more flexibility and is more powerful than a SAFC tune.

R34 GTT owners he can also do (depeding on model of board I think?) so PM Toshi if interested.

Toshi SAU thread (as above)

Remember Brisbane prices will likely be more to cover travel expenses.

I am definitely interested, as long as the price is around $500 still and there is enough notice for me to sell off my safc/sitc combo

his work definitely sounds like the way to go especially since im driving an auto.

shame he is not local to do a retune after more mods though :thumbsup:

This will take at least a month or so to work out. I don't think it will be happening anytime sooner than that.

How do people feel about doing this on a weekday? ie. Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday.

To cover travel expenses (airfares/accom/car hire) we will need as many as possible. Obviously this also may not happen at all - but I am giving it a try to see.

Toshi feels that it is worth looking into but he did mention the costs and what people are willing to pay will need to match. So perhaps if you ask around?

His comments are:

He can do 2 fairly std cars a day. (He will need details of your car closer to the day)

He can do R32, R33, R34 GTS cars (NOT S14/15 as he does not have daughter board atm)

**** off-topic, how do I edit original post to make clearer? *******

I'll be getting it done, but I'm not paying extra to get him here to do it live.

My planned list of mods are the same as sidr20 in sydney who got a bees dick under 200rwkw.

All I will do is get those mods, then get Toshi to send me a pre-mapped ECU. plug it in on a dyno, all is good.

then send him my one as return.

it'll be around $350 from what he's told me.

I know how most people feel about buying "pre-tuned" tunes, but I don't really care.

If there is a problem, take it out, put in the stocker and get my money back.

IF he is willing to tune it while he is up here for the same price as postal service, then I'm in.

OK, I got a dyno run today and my Air/Fuels are very rich, so I'm going to PM those who expressed interest in the remaps.

I need to know exactly what type of car you have and what mods. If this doesn't work out I am going to get a remap via post like GTST, but I'd rather pay a little more and get it customised for my car live.

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
