I was at chasers the other day getting my brakes done and quized there tuner Paul about Nistune and if they were going to do them he informed me they had started to do them. Quote for a S2 stagea auto drive in/out including supply,install and tune will be around $750 mine will be booked in very shortly and i will supply b4 and afters to let you know how it goes. Contact glenn at chasers for all enquiries (03) 9687 7118

what does the the nistune chip do ?

like a piggy back comp ?

the nistune chip sits in the stock ecu (so totally invisible) and can control afrs, timing, change rev limit and more importantly remove 180km speed limit. Sadly they are not available for S1 Stageas.

Awesome! I'm really keen to see some before and after figures on the NIStune. I wouldn't mind getting this installed as soon as i can. Also be interesting for traveling sakes how much different the car will be on fuel before and after. Do you have any other mods on the Stagea to go with this?? :P

Just got my nistune on my s2 rs auto stagea redone yesterday. Had some misfiring issues due to plugs but now its bloody amazing!!!!!!!!!

Before my tune with stock turbo and safc neo( which is now for sale :P )i managed 185rwkw at 12psi with all usual mods and stock afm, injectors. Now with hypergear turbo and nistune i'm pushing 230 rwkw at 16 psi!!!

The nistune transformed the engine completely. No where near as laggy, cold starts are perfect and changes on the stock auto are really snappy at the top end with no flaring. Funny thing is before the nistune my auto would flare for a second before changing to second, now it just clicks in really quick!! Hope that lasts!

On an rs rwd stagea this setup is so much fun! I'm getting to the limit of my rear tyre traction, and best of all i'm managing 450km + to a tank enen with a heavy foot and city driving!

Go the nistune definately, had mine done at status tuning by trent and he is fantastic!!

Nice! i get more pumped to get one installed every time someone talks about them!! :P

I had my car dyno'd when i put a boost controller in pulled 178 rwkw on 12psi dropped to 8 psi @6000rpm, since then i have installed full 3" turbo back exhaust and an adjustable cam gear, car came with hks intercooler and pod. All my driving is on highway get about 520 kms per tank but never run it empty so maybe 550-600 out of a tank. will post up results of new tune as soon i have it installed prob july/august

WOW - didn't know Chaser's do Nistune...another option for me, Although Trent at Status Tuning is the highly recommended, it's simply too difficult to get over the other side of the city to get it done (at my work, I can't take time off because we're short staffed).

2 of my friends got their cars tuned up at Chaser's and spoke very highly of them

sorry guys slightly off topic, but a bit interested if you have got a std turbo andy(i guess it is at 178rwkw on 12), have you any other mods eg safc etc to improve fuel use or a block behind the fun pedal because all stagea owners would cut off a nut for those figures :banana:

That figure was on the Chasers dyno in rear drive only (fronts pulled out) and as the car came from japan. Stock turbo (as far as i know) stock dump pipe and hks silent power cat back,hks intercooler and hard pipes and hks pod and turbotech bleed valve set to 12psi as stated. As for ecu i have always assumed it was standard it however may not be but never looked to see i guess i'll find out when the nistune goes in. There was nothing on the auction sheet to indicate modified or changed ECU or turbo and no sign of any aftermarket electronics (safc/sitc). I found the dyno sheet i over quoted a bit real figure is 175.6 RWKW unfortunately i could not get a print out of AFR's

Would this be a better option than jaycar AFR & boost controller with hand controller, which I was thinkin of doing. It's a bit more expensive but if the outcome if much better.......?

Any ideas on who I can talk to about getting this done in Brizzy?

EFI Performance. They are at Yatala or Nerang

I might be going down this track. Approx $300 plus tune $500.

Opposed to the Vipec for $2600 installed and tuned

Nistune will be better than just getting the Jaycar DFA but you will still need a boost controller and the Jaycar is great value if you can build it or find one already built).

...

Lose the stock dump for something (anything?) else, and fit a decent cat. turbine noise is a bit louder, but best estimates put those 2 parts fitted to my car alone at being worth ~5awkW (with a stock cat-back).

Otherwise, stop talking about how good the Nistune is - us S1 owners get all upset about it...

:P

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
