Hey just wondering if anywhere is open on a weekend for me to get a tune as i live in victor harbor and it is hard to get a day off during the week just for a tune. If ther is can anyone recommend a good tuner?? Cheers jarad

are you after a tune, plugs/oil etc or a just a dynotune???

what ecu are you using??

Aussie exhaust and dyno will do it on the weekend for you

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!

just after a tune and check over dont need service only changed oil and filters last week just running stock ecu wher bouts they located?

corner of port/south rd hindmarsh next to the car wash look for the yellow building ask for michael

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??

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
