How much was the tune? Are you happy? Satisfied?

Nick is excellent on the dyno... he pushes out some great tunes and is willing to work with you to get the result your looking for. He's a wealth of knowledge, so listen up.

Also, don't take a half done car to the dyno, make shure everything is sorted out before you drop it off.

Cheers

Justin

$1000000

He's lying. It cost much, much more than that. He won't tell me either, it worries me that he's probably given up his first born son or something..

Slightly more on topic, I've heard a lot of good things about GT but it really comes down to who you talk to and what you're doing I think :) For what it's worth, I reckon I'll take my car to GT for it's first tune.

yeah it's around $800 for an epic tune.

Brad at Boost would be my choice if I was up north.

If you want a built engine, get that 26\30 that Jangles is selling in the other thread, it's only $4k!!!

haltech will run the shit out of it.

Applications: Nissan Skyline R32, Nissan Skyline R33 Variations: GT-R, GTS-t Engine Codes: RB25DET, RB26DETT

I heard Xrated has some epic turbos for sale. $2500, add a bit more for manifolds, fronts and dumps, and lines. Should be mint.

well do you want big power or not spend lots of money? They're your two options :P

200kw at the treads is enough to have fun with though.

Nick @ GT Garage is back from Holidays next week, I found e-mail is the best way to contact him.

this thread has quickly turned into i want something but dont want to spend money.

Im not saying buy it, but you would be hard pressed to get anything near the cost.

Power costs money, for 210kw you dont even need a haltech, save your money, buy a nistune and then once youve got your new motor/setup buy a more capable ecu

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
