Hi guys,

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/DYNOPOWER-PERFORMAN...=item4144a3a9c4

i saw this performance chip on Ebay not long ago and had a read of it. It seemed to good to be true for its price..

What you reckon?? or has anyone tired it??Would it affect an N/A's performance once??

cheers

DONT

BOTHER

110% agreed, dont waste your time and money

do what 99.9% of everyone else does, and that is to go and get your car tuned, by a professional, to take in account every nuance of your own particular cars features and limitations

it'll be safer (for your engine), more powerful, and better for the environment (and your long term petrol costs)

If you're up north, road and track dyno, morpowa, willall and horsepower in a box are available

if you're down south, southern hitech dyno, turbotune, graham west can all do the same job

I prefer road and track and southern hitech cause I know both of the guys there but call around and see which one can fit your expectations the best

AS IF IT DOESNT WORK! i bought one of those chips and put it in my car and it made it HEAPSSS QUICKER! it looks like a scam but its not it fully works!

never said it didnt >work<

it just doesnt work >well<

Unless of course you're running 100% stock components, in which case its probably not too bad - but who has 100% stock everything? Just about every car that comes into the country has aftermarket induction and exhaust

ahaha i was just bull shitting... as if you fkn buy that piece of shit chip LOL looking at the add looks dodgey already ahaha

f**ks sake kiet

i know you're a dickhead

but misleading a guy whos asking an honest question is the mark of a dog f**king son of a bitch

pardon the f**king french, but you're an irredemable wanker

Yeah stay away from them, like ben said better off getting your car tuned properly. Every car has slightly different parameters, therefore no one "Magic Chip" can be classed as a reliable form of tune upgrade.

bite me :)

that isn't a chip as such, it's just a resistor to play with the AFM signal and lean out the mixtures. And since our cars were actually tuned for 100RON jap fuel which we don't have, so we are stretching our mixtures already on the 40 degree Australian summer days. Another thing that points to it not being a chip is that they sell them from R33's which are fairly unchipable (well for under $800-1000 anyway).

^^ hahaha the only person in the thread to actually read what it is

its a cheap knock off of a fuel cut defender lean you car = more power then bang

so in short YES it will work but is it really worth it ..... prolly not

If someones got to open a thread to ask a question whether an eBay chip works or not... then may god help us all. :)

Skyline ECUs are fairly efficient at making power (a touch on the rich side). But it's a N/A engine with turbocharger-like compression, unfortunately all you can do is supporting mods, high flow panel filter, exhaust, cold air intake etc for small gains. unfortunately you can't just magically pull power out of your hat, unless you go forced-induction.

I've looked into these magic chips in the past when I owned a commodore, I concluded they are just resistors to make the engine think it's running colder than it actually is, permanently making your engine run alot hotter than it was designed for.

    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
