put something in place of the cams plz dont want to add the pulling of the engine in the recipe

thats just wot im running to get that....

you get get same results minus cams with same setup just add more boost 2-3psi id say but pushing the turbo to its limits.. if not 2530 garrett 2871r - but it a bit more laggy but bit more power

not sure if this fit right here and makes sense

after removing rom chip from ecu and installing type 2 board etc. will the car be able to drive to the tuning shop or have i lost everthing pertaining to moving the car

can anyone give me a detailed description from start to be able tomove normally? even if i let a shop do this i like to know the pros and cons of this.

Sorry don't know how it works exactly, but in my case

Took out ECU and sent away

ECU came back with Nistune board and retained all maps which were in my stock ECU

Drove it for a week with no probs

Took it to tuner to tune :-)

INTRODUCTION

Base Image Programmer

All NIStune real-time boards require the “base image” to be programmed before they can be used. This is

normally done during manufacture – and cannot be changed by the end user.

Professional tuners who purchase multiple boards may find it necessary to change the base image, so we

have made the programmers available for this purpose.

Not wrong there! I sent my ECU up on a thursday to my father in-law to remove my Mines Chip, we got it the Friday. Took the day to remove all the epoxy and still had to cut the chip out! Gave it to Pete (half of PLMS) who works on the desk next to him, Pete checked out the Mines map which was leaned out in the higher revs, speed cut removed and had 4deg of timing added across the whole map (yes that is all Mines did) then he fit the NIStune board and sent it all back to me very well packaged on the Tuesday. I got it on the Wednesday. Overnight delivery Via registered post from SA to VIC = AWESOME!

Get mine tuned on Friday at Status Tuning, can't wait. Have the cable and software on my spare laptop too, it's very cool stuff.

    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
    • My experience with Rising Sun Exports Before agreeing to the sale I tried to do as much research as I could (obviously), his Facebook reviews are 98% and he goes Live at least once or twice a week. I contacted 2 people in the UK who had used him for their imports, both had positive feedback. His explanation and talk through of the import process was thorough, answering any query no matter how stupid it was. It felt as soon as the money was sent, communication dropped off. I asked for shipping updates every 2 weeks or so, not wanting to pester him, he never had any updates. I wasn't informed the car had been dropped off at the port, I only found out by his Facebook story. I asked for the photos taken at the port, knowing he would need some for insurance purposes. I received a few 5 second clips and that's it. When asked again, he said his staff had them. Weeks later I asked again, he tells me he doesn't have any, but does have 50 photos from the original advert. I never received them. I eventually got the documents sent via WhatsApp after I mentioned the port was requesting them. I purchased a CarVX report, to find out the vehicle is a Grade R with recorded accident damage, first recorded in 2017 when it was first auctioned. He never told me the grade, then again I didn't ask. His response was "Grade R means nothing, it wasn't chassis damage". Still, I would have liked to have been informed about it. Jon prides himself on being open and honest when it comes to inspecting cars, it's his main job doing so at the auctions for customers. When the vehicle arrived in the UK I noticed a few little cosmetic issues. It's a 21 year old car so it wasn't going to be mint condition. The side skirts are cracked on each corner and the sealant is failing. The front grill on the bonnet/hood isn't secured very well, mounting studs are missing. Both minor things, but again, it would have been nice to be told. During a Facebook Live walk around video of the vehicle, he mentioned it has a front Whiteline anti roll bar/sway bar. While on the inspection ramp, I noticed the stock item has been installed. When first questioned, his response was "the ARB? Switched? Since when, it never had them". Since sending video and photo evidence I've not received a response. I'm probably being over critical of the overall condition of an old car, but all I wanted was honesty (which he claims to have). I'm aware I wasn't his only customer, he's busy doing XYZ but other reviews praise him for great communication with regular updates and photos, I felt I didn't receive the same treatment. 
    • I was able to get some underside photos while the car was on the ramp The suspension is all Altezza/IS200/IS300 so getting part's will hopefully be less of a headache
