Hi guys,

i got a quote from Jem in ingleburn for $2650 to install and tune Haltech ultimate pro in my r33 gtst. I am getting rid of the air flow meter

and the old setup with emange. i do have stage 2 modifications and just want some opinion. Even better a group install to reduce the cost.

Thanks

Every car is slightly different, so whatever you get quoted could quite possibly be very different to what someone else will be quoted due to mods, condition of car (will any other work be required to make sure it's running at its best before and after the tune), accessories fitted (different injectors, fuel pumps, surge tanks, etc.).

gts-t -> i wouldn't bother with the haltech unless you have a stupid amount of power or are extremely anal about your fuel/air ratio. Buy a power FC or link G4 ( i have one that im willing to part with :-) ).

It will save you money and much more people are around to dyno tune them.

Power FC is good, but Haltec is better in most ways. Hower from reading this forum and my own experiance Haltech do tend to be a little picky if you have electrical issues (one unit will work fine in one car but in another it can become more difficult).

I would not buy a power FC if you want to remove AFM's though. The basic model does not allow it and the dejetro can apparently be a pain to tune and costs as much as a new Haltech/Vipec.

Don't pay stupid amounts of money for this stuff unless you are going for a full house drag engine.

I have an RB25DET in my HR31 and have just had a Z32/Nistune installed and dyno tuned for $800. Picked up another 30Kw and it has everything you need for a full motor upgrade.

Uses the AFM though. I agree it would be nice to get rid of it but not for another $2000!

What's wrong with the AFM? What's so stupid about it? I prefer AFM tuning over MAP because you don't have that untunable spot between -ve and +ve manifold pressure. If you don't run silly useless BOVs I can't see why the AFM is such a problem. Even so, you can easily compensate for it with the fuel deceleration adjustment.

I just paid $1500 - Instal and tune Haltech Sports 2000 from scratch. Zip programming on the unit.

That's in the ACT so your being ripped.

Appologies if that is purchase, install and tune - then it's an awesome price.

It WILL be purchase and install as i have a quote for the PS2000 completely wired into my R34 with wideband and tune and its not much more than the pricing above...

JEM are one of the best Haltech tuners around and if you want a premium job that you will be happy with i suggest you spend the money once and do it right.

I had a Power FC and had no issues with it but ditched it in favour for the Haltech due to the mods and E85 etc... But for most road cars a Power FC will do the job fine.

I have done so much research on ECU's lately and all seem to have heaps of PROS and not many CONS, but it all depends on the application you want it for i guess.

The guys at JEM have done a few mates cars now and will be doing mine and a couple of others very soon, we drive 3hrs just to get there simply because they are so helpful, pricing is good and they have an awesome reputation.

Adam is one of the best when it comes to Haltech from everything i've been told and the mates that have gone have been REALLY happy :cheers:

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
