r33 engine is pretty hot , i heard some friend told me that in summer my car might go overheat ...o.O

Dropby Baskin Robbins at Chapel Hill tonight to get instant answers to your questions. To answer it briefly, yes. By installing a new ecu (doesnt really matter which brand) will improve any parameter you wish. For example, you might want response over high end torque/power and having said that you'll probably will lose fuel economy at the same time too. In most case fuel economy will be slightly better as they're rich when stock.

Whacking a powerfc by itself into your car wont do anything and it's actually it's only got a base tune for your car and if you buy it second had which most times you will the power fc will have been tuned for someone else car. I have an almost completely stock car but with a Nismo exhaust my car was tuned to 187.1 rwkw from a powerfc which I was freaking surprised at but in the end a lot comes down the the tuner and what you want. If you want a "speed/power" tune your going to get some economy sacrificed, most people get a power tuned laced with economy just because your not going to need so much power really unless it's a track car and with fuel prices the way they are it makes sense. There are also a lot of other ECU's out i've heard some good things about Emanage but it's all down to user preference, personally I love the hand controller and love the knock sensor on it although if you get it don't bother getting the Power FC Boost controller add on I heard it's shite

    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
