Im stuck at tafe and have been trolling through eBay. I came across a Nissan tuning chip. Here is the link - http://bit.ly/18dr2XJ .

I'm wondering if this is just some stupid thing on eBay or if it's any good. I'm after any ones feed back I they've purchased one or if every heard of it?

Haha ill take the haltech off your hands ;)

Sounds like a good deal!

Do yourself a favour and learn some stuff at tafe, then you wont have to be trolling for useless paper weights!

He's marking our tafe assignments, so we just have to sit here. It's great fun....

Well do some reading on SAU on how to properly modify your car :P If you want it ebay spec then buy some spinner hubcaps and neons as that is about the extent of the performance you are likely to get haha

Notice the ad says "with raised boost" and "with intake and exhaust mods", which of course is going to make more power :laugh:

Raising the rev limit is about all i can see it does and doing that with a small stock turbo is kind of a waste of time imo lol

could work, could not..

best to ask for the ignition table and also the injection table.. then ask for a A/F plot for the car with those mods

Most likely the "tuner" that made the chip just trimmed off the igntion table, upped the rev limiter and tidied up the A/F.

I bought one of those "chips" but off CEFF13 on this forum like 5+ years ago, I banged it on my RB20DET and used a wideband O2, happy with the results. Had decent A/Fs and my rev limiter was set at 7500rpm.

These days, standalone, they're so easy to tune and not to mention cheaper than back then!

Haha I figure it would be some thing pointless, I just wanted to know if some one had actually bought one before. I'm slowly building my gtst and saving for a nisstune. Apprentice wages suck :(

Haha we all gotta start somewhere! I went through that years and years ago and you are right, it farken sucks!

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
