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.

i really cant believe it!!!

that change is only on your mines computer or is that the change done to all mines computers. caz my friend has a mines tuned computer and when placed on the car its like it revealed its true potential. the car got really aggressive.

the problem i find with the mines were i live the best we get is 90 octane and they are normally tuned for much more than that and in most cases it wont be tuned for your car. thumbs up to mines but hands up to nistune

so what about the mines skyline?

any new nistune rbs in the family and willing to share the experience?

haha i did 4 r32 remaps this week and a r34.... so theres another 5 "family" members out there :laugh:

We have done over 60 nistune boards in the last 10month's since we have started using the softwear.

some happy user's of nistune...

Can some1 explain what makes the remaps like this less suitable once the power starts to climb past a certain level? WHat does the remap have trouble doing?

Also is any software able to be programmed into the remaps ie launch control?

Cheers

James

PS: I have a dr drift remap and am very happy with teh results. While i was away at work my mrs fillied up with some 95 fuel. When i came home and took it for a spin it was boosting a lot less because of the knock control. Asked her what she done and found out about the wrong fuel. Could have ended badly for me!!

I know it can be quite difficult to explain but is there a manual or some form of info that one can download to read up on what can be adjusted and played with and in what moderation can one change figures when tuning with nistune. the do's and don't s of adjusting timing and changing fuel maps and the works.

i am looking for something beyond base tuning. thanx in advance

I am using nistune and love it. You do pay more when compared to a remap/socket-ed ECU. But the ease of tuning thought the diagnostic port has in itself proven more financially beneficial in the long run when going to my tuner and him being able to make quick adjustments and not charging me due to having to remove the ecu completly.

For the record, I am running 650cc Injectors (abit over kill), FPR, Splitfires, Z32, GCG Rb25 High flow (17psi), Cam Gears, 3" Zorst no cat, FMIC making a reliable 210rwKW.

yeah i have heard nothing but good things about the chip i was just saying what he told

me the other day and im most likely getting one in the new year alright bond

and i think the chip itself is like $400

Maybe it was just my tune. I read that Mines tunes the ECU to the mods that are on the car, i.e. If you have kakimoto exhaust, apexi turbos, blitz FMIC, SARD 600s, HKS Cam Gears, they will tune to that.

In my case that was what was done to the maps.

Trent tuned my NIStune last Friday and all I can say is WOW! The software is very very good and trent got as much as he could out of my car with current list of mods done. made 240kW and 388Nm on 14psi.

Next step is to check wheels on the turbos and see if they are ceramic or not, if not up comes the boost!

I am extremely happy with the NIStune as the car is now tuned for BP Ultimate instead of the 100 octane that Mines tunes for

haha i did 4 r32 remaps this week and a r34....

Last time I asked i got the following reply

"R32 - we can do any of them - RB20 or RB26. No probs there.

R33 - can't do any cos they went to a Hitachi micro.

R34 - we can do the RB25 but can't do the RB26 in the GTR."

is this still the status? no RB26 in R34?

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
