You are correct, it is the type 4 board. Just go directly to Nistune, they are in SA. Check out the Nistune site http://www.nistune.com/ ordering tab. It maybe better to email Matt at Nistune [email protected] or PM him on SAU, i think his username is "darkhalf", you may also be able to work out a deal for supply and install a bit better than the listed price on the Nistune website.

dont go and see brad at boost automotive - he will tell you to get a haltech, charge you 3 times as much as a nisstune and the tune will be average at best

i've heard a fair bit of praise from gt garage in hobart but its a bit of a drive but they have a 4wd dyno and can tune anything well - best to give them a call

it is a type 4 board, but the tuner will also have to have the nisstune software

and i dont think anyone in lonnie aside from boost auto have a dyno

hobart or dev are prob gonna be your best bets for a good tune

or get someone with a nisstune with similar mods to send you their tune file

you can get the nisstune boards installed by anyone who works with electronics - eg tv repairers etc

just read on the Nistune forums that Matt from Nistune is in the process of moving so there might be a lack of response from him on enquiries. probably be better off getting a workshop to supply and install if your keen on getting it do really soon. is a trip up to melbourne with you car out of the question? there are a few good workshops there that deal with nistune.

I know I might be pushing my luck but is anybody aware of any Nistune tuners in Cairns. I've checked Nistune site and googled around and nothing. In the last few days I've shot a few emails to workshops with 4wd dynos but I'm still waiting on replies.

if you only have minimal mods one of the workshops down hear may be able to preload a tune onto a board for you, thats if you cant find anyone up there to do it. Nistune isn't really that hard to tune and anyone with tuning knowledge should be able to do it, just gotta find someone up there with a software license or purchase one yourself.

Yeah I'm not in too much of a hurry, still got to free up some coin with the wife :blink: so im happy to sit tight a bit before contacting and organsing the board with Mat. I like the idea of a preloaded tune, def worth looking into, my mods are pretty standard 3" system, FMIC, boost control. Ideally I will hear something back from the 2 workshops I emailed up here, so I know how much i need to outlay for the board and tune. The 2 places I emailed about Nistune and cost for tune are http://www.svscairns.com.au/ and http://www.claservices.com.au . If I don't hear anything I will give them a buzz when im ready to go.

anyone know anyone from melbourne can tune and install nistune? i want to get my S2 install nistune as well, thanks guys.

http://www.nistune.com/ and click on the workshops tab, scroll down till you get to the list of VIC workshops.

check out Status Tuning, they are a site sponsor and give a reasonable price for install and tune. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Fa...tr-t306749.html

We took mine down the M1 on Sunday night for abit of a street tune with Ben (from Gavin Woods). More boost, better pick up, fuel needle hardly moves now... and we havnt even got to the Dyno yet :)

We changed Fueling, Limits (Rev, Speed, Boost cut is gooooooooooone).

Cant wait to get on the rollers!

I'm guessing no, but has anyone on here gone to the trouble of fitting a Z32 ECU to a series 1. I've looked on the Nistune website and read all about it. Really apart from a few small mods to the Z32 board it seems that it should fire straight up, even without a Nistune board installed. But this was all based on a R33. Z32 ECU's are cheap and easy to come by, so I might be looking to give it a go.

Only problem is it won't plug in but will work if you wire it in. I had an R32 ecu running my engine fine (piggybacked so that the original ecu could handle the auto and vct).

Yeah I figured it wouldn't plug in :bunny: but I had also thought of piggybacking. Also I guess the R32 ecu wouldn't require the mods that the Z32 one does because of the different injector outputs and twin knock sensors and fuel temp sensor etc...

The infamous brad from boost auto, i would never recomend anyone to go to him.

He f*&ked my car and hes done the same to one of my mates. It cost me a lot of money and time to fix what he did to my vl with with rb25det. He recomended that i buy a haltech so i did and it was the dodgyest tune ive ever seen, he reckoned that it was producing 188rwkw.

When i got to melbourne and got the problems fixed he created they said that the power figure was 140rwkw, i dont know where brad got 188 from. Anyway they got 205rwkw and it was 100% more driveable than the shit tune brad did.

He wired up my mates thermo fan the wrong way and my mate cooked his $30,000 engine, wasnt inpressed and ive heard of so many other people that hes screwed around. Doesnt know what hes doing, way out of his league i think.

      Original window sticker?

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
