Im ready to get my car tuned, found 4B Action at cardiff nsw who are a nistune agent. Quoted $1100 for them to send ecu to nistune to fit daughter board, and full tune. Is this reasonable? Anyone dealt with them?

I need a bigger fuel pump and injectors. What fuel pump do i need to fit to a s2 neo stagea , where to buy it and how much should i pay?

Ill probably go with seimens 650 cc injectors.

Advice please guys.

I have the same car, fitted with nistune.

I recently put the walbro gss342 in mine, fitted straight in. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...em=180533428704

They are tricky boards to fit, i had mine done locally but it needs to be done by an expert with the right gear.

A cheaper option may be to send your ecu directly to matt had get him to fit it for you, and then get them to tune it.

That listing doesnt cover the type 4 board, which the OP has. Matt will fit and supply the board. Board is 260, fitting is 60

**EDIT**

Type 4 board, same seller/tuner http://cgi.ebay.com.au/NISTUNE-TYPE-3-4-IN...=item2c56c7df1c

$1100 is what a lot of tuners charge. there are some cheaper though. it really comes down to how much you trust the local guy. if you trust him to do a good job then it is worth paying the extra money to get it done locally, that way if something goes wrong you can take it back there easily to get it sorted.

I sold my 300zx to a guy in the hunter, 4B is almost the only one listed in newcastle for tuning the Nistune. I gave the guy their contact details, they tuned his car and he was very happy with it.

By all accounts he was pretty thorough, but i have had no first hand experience with them.

$1100 is about the norm but I'd be making sure you get a Single User license for the Nistune software with that...

Board - ~$260

Fitting - $beer (I have a mate that does the soldering for me)

Single user license - $200

Tuning - $400-500 (~4hrs on dyno @ 100-120/hr)

Total - ~$1000

OR

Buy the board yourself direct from NIStune, find someone to fit it, then just pay the tuners tuning costs.

so it seems fair, the shop is only 2 minutes away so that makes everything simple. when i get the board fitted to my ecu can i drive the car to the shop with bigger injectors and a z32 afm? what impedence injectors do i need?

No, the k multiplier will need to be changed for injectors and the AFM. the standard injectors are standard resistance, the seimens are fine, no resistor needed.

If you have a User license for the software you can go in and use the inbuilt tool to change AFM and injector size, this should get you close enough to drive it to the workshop (just don't boost it up).

you can ask matt from nistune, or whoever is doing your board, to have the board ready for z32 afm, and whatever size injectors you're putting in. then the car will start and run to get you to the dyno.

exactly. you can have them set up the ecu so that you can put the afm and injectors in while the board is being done, then when you get the ecu back, just plug it in and it will drive fine.

I still wouldn't load it right up until it's been tuned though. The inbuilt tool for changing the afm and injectors comes close but odds are things still need to be massaged to be running spot on.

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
