Why go thru all the BS to get a R32 ECU blah blah ???? DO IT PROPERLY and buy a PowerFC and you'll find it its only costs marginally more BUT the scope for further improvement is HUGE. If you get the standard Nissan ECU remapped, the next time you want to get a new mod, you'll have to go thru the whole BS process again, whereas if you installed a POWERFC, only small adjustments will be required.

Seriously, if you want to drive a R33 with improved performance, then you've gotta be prepared to pay for it. You cant have it both ways. 'Skyline' and 'cheap' DOES NOT appear in the same sentence. So if you are not willing to pay for the performance, then go an buy a Holden Barina and drive that !

I dont understand how people expect to support this expensive habit by spending no money ??? You'll learn matie, the imports hobby is an exciting one, but comes at a cost.

My advice is, dont take short cuts and do thing properly, or you'll find out in the long run that it'll end up costing you more. If you cant afford a PowerFC right now, dont do anything and save ! wait until you can afford to buy a FC and get it installed and tuned properly.

I lost my licence for 3 years and I get it back next week, Ive spent the last 3 years and almost $40,000 buying parts, I have an entire bedroom full of brand new Japanese performance parts in boxes stacked up to the ceilng. During this time, I have also built a RB25/30 hybrid engine with forged internals ready to run-in and rocknroll. This is just an example of doing it properly, my point is, not many people has the money to go all out like this in one hit, so you save up until you can, or do what I did, buy and collect parts until you can take the car to that next stage.

Have fun.

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
