Nistune Making My Gauges Weird

Hey everyone, since I have installed my nistune my temp guage sort of jumps from nothing up to 1/4 on the guage when it's warming up. And my front torque guage reads just above 0 on the guage cruising at 100, if I give it some throttle it will increase quite happily as the revs rise. Is this ecu right or was my old ecu right? Thanks for any info.

If your temp gauge is wired correctly the Nistune should make no difference. There are two sensors near your thermostat. There is one sender for your gauge in the dash and that is completely seperate from the ecu. The other sender goes to the ecu. I would have thought the torque gauge is also independant of the engine ecu but I don't know that for a fact. Maybe a battery or alternator problem?

Have you had a read of this thread?

Just on reputation I would go with Guilt Toy's recommendation or else EFI but ideally you would talk to some happy customers first.

If you have audible knock at 4000 I would knock the timing back a bit, really baby the car and get a tune ASAP (and expect to pay $700 to $1000 for a top notch first tune - so best you have all your stuff installed and do it once)!

Yer I read that thread, personally I don't want a rwd tune, that's where my problem came from. Im yet to enquire at godzilla. I've got my injectors waiting just need to find a spare chunk of time when mr gts4 is available to update the ecu.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
