32 Gtst Needs A Better Computer

[D.I.Y. Mik]

Im looking for a computer for my 32 Gtst but it is so hard to find anything that isnt a big $ racing set up.

I dont want to flash the chip cos its expensive in the long run (retune everytime i change somethig) and no handset with all the cool stuff on it.

Apexi power fc is what i want but its very hard to find, nearly got a new one from a bloke in japan, but it was put in some show car, so close yet so far.

Does anyone know about Link G4? They say i can get one but ive never heard of anyone using one on a 32 Gtst.

I think the motor is really lacking without it, considering the cams and turbo are upgraded.

Why not buy a Nistune and the software license if you want to fiddle with the tune yourself? Edit it right on your laptop.

Yuh, lowest cost, best overall option for light mods is Nistune.

uh... no matter what ECU you have, if you make modifications you will need to have it retuned.

That is part and parcel of making modifications.

Nistune is your best and imo most "police" friendly bet for a streetable car

The same G4 plug in Link suits the R33 or R32 but Nistune will be a cheaper option. Any ecu needs to be retuned when you mod your engine.

If you have already upgraded the turbo and cams with the stock ecu not only are you missing out on the potential gains you are also risking your engine.

I think he was more talking about the need to pull and burn chips to achieve that retune, which is the most annoying part of chipped ECU tuning.

Thats correct except nistune doesnt need to be removed. Simply plug into the standard nissan consult port

[D.I.Y. Mik]

Hmmmm...

Well shes running rich and i never rev it over about 5000.

And i live in canberra so im limited to what the local tuners can tune, waiting to hear back from them.

I would pay for an apexi.

Well see about nistune.

Nistune for sure man rb20 will not reach the tuning limits I ran one on mine no problem they are cheap and look stock perfect for a street car even with track use

Good ol' nistune vs power fc debate. Something different for a change. Both are as good as each other

[BOOZTJUNKEY]

Nistune 100 percent mate don't waste money on shit u don't need

Do u install and tune nistune or just tune jez ?

[TTT]

Nistune.

and if you want to see a display - get an ecudatascan device.

I've got that combo in my R32.

http://ecudatascan.com.au/store.html

it can display like 10 or 12 parameters from an R32 GTST.

Also can be a GPS

and do lap timing for tracks and you can actually build your own track image in to it etc etc.

Yes i install and tune NIStune

[D.I.Y. Mik]

Cant get Nistune done here, i got quoted $3200 for a new Haltech setup with map sensor and tuned, im sure its good but too expensive for me. He also recommended bigger injectors, more $$$.

Maybe i have to take it to Sydney for a Nistune?

Is the Nistune up to the job? How well can it be tuned?

This is turning out to be much more difficult than i thought, so ill tell you whats on my car and maybe you (Sydney tuners) or someone you know can tune it properly.

R32 gtst manual (converted from auto)

Fmic

Rb25 turbo

Unknown cams (probably tomei poncams)

Pod filter

Cat back exhaust

Thermo fan

Should i get:

Split dump

3" cat

Adjustable cam gears

Bosch fuel pump

Or what bits do you guys recommend?

I would go to Sydney if ican get it done properly in one go. Want to do it ALL for under $4000.

[TTT]

as a guide.

my car has:

pod

turbo back exhaust

fuel pump

15psi on stock turbo

nistune

makes 160rwkw

so with an RB25 tubo you'll get around 10-15% more at the same boost (roughly)

not sure how much difference the cams and cam gears will make.

Definitely finish off the exhaust and do the fuel pump.

I don't think it will need bigger injectors if the turbo you are going to use is an RB25 one.

nistune is up to the task mate.

in some ways, more so than a PFC.

Canberra is only like 3 hours away from sydney

organise a day with a tuner and drive down for it.

[D.I.Y. Mik]

Oh.. what about Greddy e-manage?

[Simon-S14]

No way

[DVS JEZ]

Urs is a very basic setup. Pm me for a price if u want
