Just posting this as i haven't seen any up to date dealing with this company.

Got there this morning and spoke to Herman, was only looking at getting a SAFC II fitted to the car, had a bit of a chat to him and found out that they are now a NISTUNE dealer.

Having looked into this before it was a few days turn around from other suppliers, I asked them what the turn around time was, to my pleasant surprise he said 2-3 hours, as they keep them in stock.

Ran the car on the dyno to see what it was doing.. I have now got the record for what he said was the dirtiest (fuel out the exhaust) skyline he has seen!!!

Had a bit more of a chat and decided to go with the NISTUNE as it just seemed like the better option..all up the NISTUNE was fitted and tuned to my car for $1000 bucks

Car went from 155kw to 221kw, backed off slightly to 216kw due to a slipping clutch.

Spoke about future mods that i should do with the car, any question that i had was answered, and he even explained a few things i wasn't aware of.

Im just posting this up as it is always good to see positive feedback about a garage, they will defiantly be seeing my car back in there.

Mick!!

I would assume for 216kws, he has upped his boost a lot, or it's a happy dyno (which is the word on the street for envy).

But the peak power isn't really important, it's the delivery of that power and I'm sure now with a tuned ECU that you're happy as larry!

Massive gain there Mick, you have to be happy with that :D

Are you still running standard boost?

No boost controller atm, they recon with a EBC and wastegate i will be pushing high 230 , low 240kw

what about fuel system??

Stock atm.. when i do the EBC im going to upgrade the fuel pump, they recomend a intank walbro

Good to hear!

Herman was asked to guestimate how my car would go on Dyno at the SAU Event 16/08/08 and with my minimum mods/boost

he was only 8kw under.

BTW, he would have upped your boost a bit?

Hey terry, i think herman said that the boost is up to around 15pound but bleeds of to around 12pound, hence the need for a better wastegate

I would assume for 216kws, he has upped his boost a lot, or it's a happy dyno (which is the word on the street for envy).

But the peak power isn't really important, it's the delivery of that power and I'm sure now with a tuned ECU that you're happy as larry!

Id say the stock fuel system will be very close to its limit..

my stock fuel pump died cause a certain workshop tuned it with a fuel cut defender on 12psi and made just under 200rwkw (not envy)

went to unigroup and had the walbro installed - much better and then when I did the turbo conversion had the larger z32 afm and 555cc nismo injectors

once you get them, get a retune and you'll be laughing :huh:

However your stock turbo may not last..

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
