What do you guys reckon of Link computers for R32s?

I know quite a few New Zealand guys use them and seem to like them.

Which would be better between a Link computer and a remap for an R32 RB20DET with FMIC, full exhaust, T04E, external gate, bigger injectors etc etc

Cheers

Hi JiMiH, my choice would be to remap in real time the standard R32GTST ECU, if you have finished your mods. If you still have things to upgrade, then a Power FC would be a better choice as the extra cost would be covered by the saved chip burning.

Hope that helps

i went to get info on the new wolf 3D for my rb20det and the bloke said that there was nothing better than the link ECU for a rb20det and then he told me it would be $2300 fitted and tuned so i tuned out, am now looking to remap the factory ecu to get my end results for a thrid the cost!

How does the Wolf compare to remapping the stock ECU then?

I mean apart from the "wanky" features that you can get such as rotational idle, are there benefits of a Wolf3D above a remapped ECU?

I haven't finished my mods yet, but I think once you have a remapped ECU you only pay for dyno time later to retune it?

James,

I took the remap route and all is sweet at the moment. The place that did my tuning, as you know, are able to do pretty much anything with the ecu, except for the features as you mentioned. They can also do a few other really cool things with the ecu as well. Bit hard to explain on here but they can put on "Valet" mode etc. Stops dickheads thrashing your car basically.

A whole lot cheaper than a Link I'd imagine.

I know enough about the Link not to suggest anyone uses them:p

JiMiH, The wolf will provide so many more features over the remap, without getting into the wanky stuff like anit-lag rotational idle etc. Pop down to see Steve at SST he'll be more than happy to run through some of the feature and demo the software to you:D

Yeah I spoke to Steve at the drags the other night and told him I'd pop in one Saturday morning to check it out.

Dan, I'll have to have a chat with you soon mate and you can tell me bout your remap :( Not to mention take me for a drive :(

Traction control is wanky stuff:p The traction control works via hall-effect sensors, and sends a signal to the engine to drop the power, rather than a second butterfly infront of the plenum like the factory fitment traction controls use. Not much good on turbo engines as it lets the turbo fall off boost.

save a dozen maps on your pc

give the bagging a rest, RIPS times are a recommendation for the stuff and ive seen 100's of cars run link with awesome results and no problems. objective debate might be better to base a decision on but is sometimes a little difficult for some

pm me jimih i can help you out with heaps of cars running it but a remap would be cheaper and just as effective as an aftermarket ecu

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
