Hey guys,

I’ve heard of these tuners on the net that you apparently can send in the list of mods you have done and they tune it as best as they can. Then you go get a dyno run and check your mixtures and if they are not 100% you can send it back and they will adjust it for free.

The reason for me looking into this is its $200 and I’m trying to do up my r33 gtst as cheap as i can as i have a young family and I don’t have the luxury to spend thousands on my toy so its a slow cheap project.

I’m not planning for it to be to crazy I’m hoping to have a r34 side mount water cooled and 3 inch full system fuel pump standard air box with k&n panel

Has anyone had experience with these internet tuners what’s everyone opinion?

$200 fora R33... Sounds very wrong.

As above, if budget - 10psi is fine (12 can trip it out).

Nothing will beat a proper tune and 'mailorder' tunes will not be much better than a stock ECU as you have to be so conservative.

Normal tune $600-1500 depending on workshop.

Tunable ECU is between the same $500-4000 depending on brand.

Decent power depends on what you think is decent and again how much you can budget into it.

Reliable power and low budget do not mix at all sorry to say

ok so if i was to do

full 3 inch system

fuel pump

k&n pannel

water coolded r34 intercooler

10 psi

maybe a tune later on down the track

that would be ok power? there is nothing else i could do on the cheap

and for those mods what kind of fuel pump do i get? and would you bother with injectors?

With a budget build I wouldn't bother with injectors because they will require a tune

The stuff you have listed will be fine without a tune as long as you make sure it's 10psi and no more.

With a tune it would make a huge difference though.

I went a walbro 255 as they are easy to fit and no expensive. Got mine for $200 including the install

34 coolers are water to air?

at the power levels youve hinted to being able to afford right now, keep the standard cooler.

again, dont worry about fuel pump either.

just get a boost controller(electronic) and run 10psi, the factory systems should have enough leway in them.

start saving, and do a nice group of mods when you can afford it.

Hey mate

Best thing to do is contact Toshi

He is on SAU and is fantastic

Costs about $400

He will send you replacement ECU that he has socketed and rechipped for your mods

Very very accurate tune

He has done many tuned chips for so many different configurations of mods

My car is an R33 GTST running 12PSI and has FMIC and 3" with man boost control

I beat most V8's out there and air fuel ratios are spot on

Also great MPG.

If you need any help contacting him just ask

And for all you doubters out there I say come for a drive of my car (or a race!!)

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
