not sure about other states

but here in S.A ap engineering model power fc is legal nothing else thou.

and at regency even if your turbo is standard and they see braided line they will do you for a/m turbo, al thou i have seen some get threw .

he (and Toshi in Sydney) remap R33's and 34s ... bit different to Nistune. I believe Nistune is more adjustable ..works with bigger injectors etc where as "remap" is only AFRs and ingition timing adjustments..

Remaps can handle bigger injectors, afm's etc.

My RB30DET was running a remap with z32 afm and 550cc injectors.

The difference is that Nistune is live tunable via the consult port, whereas a remap is tuned with a romulator (usually) and then a new EEPROM is burnt.

No actually the remap stuff is done live also. Dr Drift developed the system to be able to do this.

Has been doing it long before Nistune even existed

speaking of consult ..anyone know any nice programs to use ? I'm getting my consult cable today ..can't wait to see all the sensor data and crap :) Speaking of which, is there perhaps a summary of correct sensor voltages anywhere ?? eg. I wanna make sure my AFM, knock sensor etc are operating normally

Sorry, maybe live was the wrong choice of word. I meant that remapping (at least how mine was done), is they solder a cradle where the old EEPROM was (I did this myself, saved a bit of coin) and use a romulator (chip with a cable) to tune, once happy with the tune they burn the maps to another EEPROM and chuck it in.

Nistune is tunable through the consult port, you don't need to open it up and remove chips.

I use Datascan on my carpc, cost about $35 from plmsdevelopments.

The nistune guys REALLY need to get onto the R33 gtst computer. My thoughts is that if they don't have it ready by now they never will, must not be possible.

I thought it was, but the boards were very expensive?

both false.

No aftermarket computer is legal in South Australia

After market lines are fine.

Im using a Z32 ecu on my R33 GTST S1, only thing needed to be done was to change the order of the injector cables, that and joining 2 wires into 1 for the AFM signal, since the Z32 has 2, easy as pie :down:

I've been running stock S1 turbo, 3" full exhaust, HKS airfilter+piping, FMIC etc etc and done the tuning myself, i couldnt be happier. Also since i have an aftermarket thermostat that opens at 70 degrees i changed the enrichment per temperature and so on to match the mods of the car.

AFR 15.2 at low load for fuel economy, 13.5 when turbo starts boosting and 12.2-12.5 on full load/higher revs. Havent had tme to get it dynoed yet but way better then stock :P

I think you'll be very happy with nistune!

EDIT:

Why i went with the Z32 ecu instead of the RB20 is that the rb20 doesnt support VCT, the Z32 does.

Nothing available for R33 yet, as far as I was aware it is plug and play with a 20 ecu, its just that you loose the variable valve timing, but I think its only series 1 that might be plug and play as series 2 has the ignitor in the ecu where the Rb20 does not.

oh god, not that again. the r33 series 2 ecu does NOT have the ignitor built into it. it is built into the coils. that is why you can't run s1 coils in a s2 and vice versa, yet you can run a s1 ecu in a s2 and vice versa.

i use ecutalk. i also have datascan and scantech but find ecutalk the easiest as far as just displaying info goes. the others have the the diagnostic tests though. it's always fun driving along then switching off a cylinder, LOL

We have been doing quite a few epa cars latley with nistune (Nistune is the easiest and IMO the best EPA option) BUT a competant tuner can get a microtech through the epa polution process aswell (it is difficult though). I just did a FC rx7 with a microtech and even without the air pump passed its emmisions test.

$655 with Nistune fitted for R33

http://www.k-tune.com.au/Parts_For_Sale.ews

I doubt it is re-pinned internally you still need to swap the 10 or so wires in the connector :D

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
