The Sa Wasteland

I deleted mine a few weeks ago; It's a time-waster with lax security/privacy settings...

Hrmmmm .. $150 seems cheap; I got a nistune put in my ECU months ago from the groupbuy, still haven't had it tuned. Anything to get a bit more power and fuel economy would be awesome... especially at that sorta money...

I know, $150s cheaper than I would have expected, but then again if it only takes them an hour or maybe two, then thats pretty much spot on...

I'm getting some nismo AFMs put in tomorrow and a retune - if we can't get it sorted then I may take the car to boostworx just for the tune, we'll see what happens

-D

Pretty sure Martin charges $500 Steve, $450 for SAU:SA members IIRC

[Nightcrawler]

Not for my tunes

[Weezy]

What would martin have to tune on the V35?

[Madaz]

awesome Luke that's same ball park as boostworx and no further to travel

[Madaz]

lol Wayne

Zing!

[Nightcrawler]

Errr air/fuel ratio on my SAFCII? Like he did on my R34 and got 20 more rwkw out of it.

Haven't got it fitted yet though to the 35 (haven't had time to get out my soldering iron).

I'll call boostworx tomorrow to confirm this price. I have access to a RWD dyno so I may very well play around with the tune myself - that said boostworx have a track record with skylines and are literally in walking distance from my mechanic so I'm keen on giving them a shot if I get stuck...

I like places that do conservative tunes

whats wrong with a knock tune!!!

[heslo]

Not for my tunes

He charges you double

[skwiz]

Any idea on what would be causing my rb20 not to rev past 4500rpm?

It virtually hits an invisible brick wall...

*no brick wall jokes.

heh, nothing if u made ur engine to tolerate that stuff but me, i got a daily... i dont need a tune that hardcore - would rather go 10kw less to make sure it doesnt knock even in the worst circumstances

-D

EDIT - Just had some fun at home. One of my brothers snakes got out of its enclosure (one out of a dozen) and I was in the room looking for a box of pizza shapes and I turn around and theres this python just looking at me... dude was a little lower than my head but we were looking at each other, and he was having a good sniff... and I think the both of us were thinking "Oh hey, what the f**k..." looked like one of the smaller snakes he had cause its head was really thin, but decided against trying to wrangle it myself - got my bro and he pulled the wires out and extracted a 2.5 mt green python from the back of the couch....

yeah... im glad I erred on expert help - they might not be venomous but their bites still hurt

Do you have a PowerFC Jake? My brother-in-law has just had this exact issue (plus intermittent spark plug reporting issues on his MFD) in his R33GTR and turns out the PowerFC was knackered.

Writeoff had a buggered powerfc. IIRC he sent it back to nengun who said there was nothing wrong with it... and then promptly sent it back

David now has in his GTR the PowerFC out of the R32GTR that was written off in Targa Tasmania the other week. All works perfectly now.

He is getting the final tune done on his brand new VSpec Nur engine next week with the HKS 2530s. Can't wait to see what number he makes, but I expect it to be a little bit over 300rwkw. Not bad for a daily.

Does it pick up again if you keep the boot in?

Coilpacks perhaps?

lol is that the r32 that flipped a couple times nose-tail and they bent just about everything on the car?

wicked crash that

300-340kw would be what I'm aiming for with the turbo/manifold upgrade...

Negative on the Power FC, Andrew.

I don't understand.

Im fairly sure my #6 coilpacks is stuffed, hence why im changing coilpacks. Once the engine gets warm..after 10 minutes, it breaks into 5 cylinders, and make's WRX owners envious of my engine.

However, tonight, i did not have an issue at all..drove for about 40 minutes, except for this problem of it limiting itself to 4500rpm.

I'm going to have to assume it has something to do with the coilpacks, as the problem has just 'magically' disappeared, but this new problem has come about.

AFM wouldnt be knackered, it would be obvious there was earlier im the rev range i would think?
