I wouldn't think so.

My experience is a tune from scratch is over $1k and a retune around $400

I haven't used Autotech but pick up the phone and call them. (25c) :)

Jez on the central coast is good with Nistune's and I beleive reasonable on price

I was more than happy with the nistuning autotech did on my sr20det 1600. I got PLMS to supply the nistune with a base map loaded to suit my injectors/AFM/turbo, and got autotech to do the fine tuning. From memory it was around the $400-$500 mark and netted 220rwkw @ 14psi with drivability of a factory ecu.

Also had Nistune installed and tune by Ed at Autotech. Car has done many track days and hasn't skipped a beat 215rwkw (Silvia SR20DET)

Unless your going monster power is more than adequate.

He is very expensive but still cheaper than dragging your car to Sydney to get it done.

$500 for a tune? thats retune price isnt it?

would 350kw be classified as big power?

on a GTR

That's roughly what I've paid for every tune I've had done there, all have been retunes I.e. change supercharger to turbo, install bigger turbo and cams, fuel system upgrade. I guess the nistune was a retune as I was driving it for months on the base map no worries.

For my GTR i was quoted $1200 to re chip and nistune the ECU from autotech. $500 for a re tune if usually what you will pay.

I wouldn't classify it as "Big" power but it's a lot none the less. You don't really want much more than that for a road car. Unless you are a dyno dummy. But after that you usually have so much lagg/Too much power you lose most of the fun.

350kw on a GTR is effortless and not classified as big power.

I have a lot more than is necessary for a street car but I happen to like drag racing. Mine's also a lot more drivable than you think, you just need to go to some effort to make sure you set things up properly.

not sure how the nis tune thing works - but when it come to tuning you pay for what you get and Ed might be more pricey then others - not much - but he is worth every cent in my opinion - and has great results in a wide range of cars, engines and ecu's-

in my opinion put the extra in and go to him rather then saving a few bucks -

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
