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

Cheers moo_r32 would u happen to hav a contact number for jeff?

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??

    • Um.... This is not easy. I will have a fiddle with it, but make no promises. I think, given the explicit resistances vs temperature, and your ECU measured voltages, it should be possible to match them up. I will do that by assuming a 5V supply from ECU to sensor, find out how much current would have to flow to produce that voltage, then use that current as a .... nah f**k. That won't work. The supply voltage is fixed, but there's nothing to say that the ECU regulates the current too. Um... I dunno. I guess there's a voltage divider setup in the ECU. As in, there's another resistance between the ECU's sense terminal and ground. That way, as the sensor resistance changes, that's how they get a floating voltage that varies with the temperature, without having to control the current. Give me a minute or 3.
    • *that* is a question for chatgpt (or someone that understands maths....but I'd try chatty). Drop them the table and ask for the formula
    • Alright. Exhaust has been looked at, and booked in 'soon'. I'm not 100% convinced it's going to be as good as possible but I'm going to go with it anyway. If I get a reasonable thing that works for 10 years I mean that's twice as long as I've lived with the current one. I have a more pressing issue. I have fixed my MPVI3 (by buying a new one). Excellently, one can wire in analog 0-5v inputs to the ECU itself. I had wideband already via Serial so I also wired it in via the direct input. The idea being I can use the standalone logging without a laptop and have Wideband data in it. The other wire I thought I'd use oil temp. This is where I've gone crazy. HPTuners requires you to implement a formula so you know how much volts = how much temp. This seems relatively simple to me. However I cannot find the scale for this anywhere on the internet, nor decipher how to figure it out without removing the sensor from the car. All I know is that voltage actually goes up as temperature goes down. I am using the actual gauge, so I can see what the temp is. The signal wire has been branched off into the MPVI3. EXAMPLE: 2.68v = 58C 2.7 = 57C 2.74v = 56C 2.8V = 54C 3.06V = 49C 3.18V = 47C 3.37V = 43C I think the gauge is 50-150C. It may be more. It may be less, because I can't find it for the love of f**k. It appears all the information about the gauges I have has been scoured from the internet, but the sender is VDO 320.021 I believe the resistance chart is this How the f**k do I convert this to a voltage? Once I have a voltage... I then have to perform this transform of said voltage to show it in the scanner: https://www.hptuners.com/help/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm @GTSBoy you're probably my only hope here TEST YOUR MIGHT
    • Here’s the updated and installed muse replica nismo ones … very happy with the outcome. Eventhough I painted my whole rear end due to my rich idle lol. 
    • Hmm. I had a good look (w/o searching, because I'm not logging in) and couldn't see it either. I distinctly recall the thread, not many weeks ago. It must have been removed or perhaps put into the back section. If it was in Off Topic you should at least have been able to search it up. So if I'm not hallucinating, it is fairly decently removed.
