take a while to respond to emails but reasonably helpful

A lot of places are the same (myself included) but if you ever call up Jamie is EXTREMELY nice and helpful.

In fact they are getting my old (and the missus' current) Legnum on Wednesday for some lurve.

They are expensive but they seem very thorough and I'm sure they would do a proper tune.

ie not just a WOT tune for power

As I drive this car a lot for work I want a proper all round tune which does take a long time to do properly so I still will consider taking it to them.

They seem very professional and thorough

But yeah $1700 is a lot of money for a tune

Yeh dude, any good workshop will do a 'proper' tune though. I've never had a problem with any of the tunes I've had at Allstar, Hyperdrive, or Garage 101. My car idles almost like factory apart from the slight note from the cams, and that's with 1000cc injectors. And I've been getting 550-600km's to a tank of petrol for awhile now.

Where did you get your car tuned last time ????

How do you get such good mileage even with cams and 1000cc injectors?!

I've got an S1 25det with power fc, GTRS turbo, 740cc injectors, pod, fmic, full exhaust, nismo fpr and i only get max about 360-380 usually in a 32 with a lot of highway driving. Tuned at Allstar after turbo kit was installed. This was during previous owner, have receipts. Oxygen sensor seems to be with voltage spec according to hand controller readouts.

There's your issue. Ditch the O2 sensor and lean out the cruise mixtures. Biggest fuel saving is the boost transition cells and the throttle enrichment, if you can get your tuner to spend a bit of time getting those set up well then you'll get decent economy. I actually get worse economy driving on the freeway or anywhere around 100-110km/h, the engine just revs too high. I get best economy just driving around town at 60-80km/h.

I get around 9L/100 with O2 feedback turned on.

I do 298km a day to work and it generally takes just under 30L

I've got cams and nismo 740s on power FC. Even during the 1200km run in period before tuning it didn't use any extra. I almost never get onto boost going to work.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
