Im looking at getting My ECU tuned by toshi for my R33 to improve power and driveability with my current mods and was wondering if anyone else was intersted to see if we could get a group discount?

Who is Toshi?

We have some awesome dynotuners that'll tune your car, in person, on actual dynometers, for really good prices...

Not sure if anyone would be keen on a 'mail order tune'?

Me personally, I'll stick to boostworx/willall

Every car is different. You can use a tune from another car with similar mods as a starting point but then change it to tailor your car. The car he bases uour tune on may be in better or worse conditon, which means it wont work correctly in your car, etc.

+1 stick to a local tuner that you can go and see and talk to. That way you can ask them questions and they can do a touch up if something isnt quite right. They will also be able to tell you if your car isnt responding to the tune very well...unlike a mail order tune.

I think he want to cheaper tune .

Mail order tune is only $400.(R33 ecu tune)

Yes , real time tune is better than mail order but my mail order tune is much better than like a mins , Blitz etc ecu.

Because my tune data is for Australia fuel.

If I come to SA and real time tune (R33 ecu tune) from $600 R33 ecu exchange (min 3 people)

I think local tuner $1000-1200 plus Z32 ECU around $100-200.

local tuners fit nistune board and tune for around 6-800.

Nistune board is $242 plus install $60 total $302.

Z32 ecu need modified for R33 cost $60-80.

Z32 ECU $100-200.

So just ecu $462-582.

How much is dyno tune?

Is SA very cheap?

In Sydney around $150 /hour.(around 3-4 hours)

spot on Dion. When I was calling around getting quotes, I got told around the $1K mark roughly. Just go a power fc or nistune :P more headroom for when you want to mod the f**k out of your car :D

I think he do not want to spend over $1000 for ecu.

Im using nistune product (Im nistune dealer) but some customer do not want to spend over $1000 for ecu.

So Im doing chip tune and nistune both.

Chip tune and nistune is exactly same performance.

i was going off rb20 ecu nistuned. i paid 700 from boostworx.

i would still pay 1k and have a remappable ecu, instead of 600 chips each time that are close to a proper tune (maybe)

and yes, poor man pays twice

I paid a lot less for the above and even had a new o2 sensor my was shagged

Classic chassis - ashley hook me up , but need a metal cat and injectors

And cam gear tweek before a decent run in tune , right now its a base tune only , the car

Was amazing compared to the stock nissan tune

Actually drivable torque monster 343nm to 503nm jump from base ecu

On low nissan boost and high flow cat failing at 6400 rpm still had 1000 rpm to go and making power still with rock solid boost from 3 k

I thought yours was tuned local? Boost work, or speed lab.

Does toshi dyno tune or road tune the car?

he does both, road tune then takes is to the dyno to check power and tweak it a bit if need be

    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
