Yeah i want to try aussie exhaust and dyno some time soon aswell, mainly becuase one of the guys is a very regular helpful user on here. hes got a pic of a r33 in his sig or avatar im thinking. Seems like a top bloke by what he posts.

Ive also used boostwerx and they were good, but i also like supporting the smaller guys too!

I dont think speed lab does rb25's he is a specialist at rb20's went to take it to him before, so who will tune my car on a saturday and can do a half decent tune with stock ecu?? I would like to do it this weekend if possible cheers

if you want a full tune, call jeff from speedlab, as we use the rb20 computer when tuning the rb25's.. yea u loose ur vct but the extra power you gain after having it tuned will be better anyway! jus so you know.. the most we have ever seen the vct make is 8kw! that is by doing a run and then un-plaging it and doin another run back to back!

jeffs the man! :P

You obviously dont know the concept of the VCT then mate, It's not about helping outright power, vct is to assist with bottom end torque, Look at the power curve on a before and after run and notice the bottom end will be a fair bit different....VCT turns off after 4000rpm anyway so that 8kw had nothing to do with it.

Save some pennies and get a Power FC mate.

if you cant find a RB25 pfc get a R32/33 GTR one :P thats what im doing but thats due to AWD not working properly on the RB25 one i had

but Cubes along with Boostworx have done the R&D on making them work with RB25's

Depending on what mods you have you may not need either a power fc ($1000+) or a remap ($550+). Your best bet is to call up Shaun from boostworx (+1) and see exactly what he recommends as the most cost effective solution to get what you want from your rb25det.

F@*k now i dont kno wat to do lol, spoke to speedlab today he was gona remap a rb20 ecu and tune for 550, last dyno i had my car got 220rwkw at turbo tune (same dyno speedlab uses) which he said was good usually 33's make near that mark with remap. Im now thinking just buy power fc and i should be able to get more power out of my car. Dont really want to spend 550 to get similiar power would be pointless. Wher do u get power fc's from and how much? anyone kno how much boostworx charged to tune and install one??

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm thinking that this is such a small part of the problem that you could easily forego the vac pump and just achieve 90% of what you need, which is keeping the gate open when off boost. It's not as if there are not already techniques to keep a gate fully closed under boost. After all, you have boost. Just use a wastegate actuator that will allow you to apply the boost on the appropriate side, just like every external gate out there.

      Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.

      At first I thought these were knock offs....

      Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
