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...

;)

Replaced the stock one with JJR bellmouth and decat pipe.

Why cant anyone do series 1 isnt everything the same as r33? i assumed they would use the same computer.

Nistune don't have a chip for the R33 either. if you see a R33 that is running Nistune it will most probably have a chipped R32 or Z32 ecu running it.

This is from the Nistune Website - The R33 ECU's are a type 6 board

We are thinknig about doing a board for R33 RB25DE/RB25DET but it involves a fair amount of work, and the parts to interface with the existing 84 pin MCU on this ECU. It is a very difficult board to get started on and requires whole new firmware code to be implemented, whilst supporting customers with our existing product line. I will start drafting schematics once Type 5 has been finished and we have got the knock sensing functionality working.

If you are looking for something to get these going then we suggest either using a HCR32 Skyline or Z32 300ZX ECU with a Type 2 board. See our FAQ topics for more information regarding these ECUs.

Your other option, if you really want to use the R33 ECU is to use an emulator with an expensive third party daughter board (pictured above) available from Sam at www.drdrift.com.au

The last time I can remember the price for the R33 Daughterboard is about $1200 and has to come in from Japan

Does anyone know the best place for doing a Nistune in WA? In terms of price vs experience?
There are six agents listed on the Nistune website: http://www.nistune.com/

If you don't hear from an WA Stagea owners you could try the general skyline forums to see if anyone has used any of them.

Got told by UAS today on the phone that u cant nistune an r34/s2 stagea board, they have to replace it with one i think he said from a 300zx.

Does anyone know if this is correct?

It needs to be the JECS board

Should be clearly marked on the ecu

Plenty of r34 on here have Nistunes

I think they have got mixed up with r33's. They can use/have used the 300zx.

no its not, Nistune Board Type 4 is the one for the R34/S2 Link to Nistune Boards

they have had this board for a while now and there are a couple of people on this forum that are running one.

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

Just put the stag in for nistune chip and tune at EFI yesterday morning. It's getting on the dyno tommorrow morning.

The bloke said the chip is good for 400hp, which they had run on a ca18det. Any more than that and you need an aftermarket ECU.

Cant wait to see the results. :rant:

just in case anyone's missed the copious amount of threads, there is currently a nistune group buy for C34 Series 2 Stageas and ER34GTT Skylines here. We're also selling single user licenses NIStune software licenses at discounted prices too, so if you know anyone who's interested, please let them know! http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...t&p=4858659

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.  
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
