No, how would the computer get power ?

Ha said he can put the ECU into another R3 in the shop as it is easier that way or bench power the unit to install the file.

But if it is a RAM system and there is a battery in it ( I have not been able to find this info out) and the battery is stuffed how would it keep the tune until I get it back into my car, wish I knew more about computers :(

I guess I will find out, I sent the ECU off to Sydney. So I guess I will wait and see what happens when it comes back.

But for the hassle it causes even if it seems OK I will change it and I will go the Haltech Pro

What ECU was it, they might have a plug that will give it power that they can down load the tune, they just won't be able to check it

How did you lose the tune ?

Apexi ECU , they were going to use another car if they had a R34GTR there or power it up on the bench, so they must have something they can use?

I was coming home from Sydney after the new turbo, cam and new tune was done. had traveled about 300Kl, going great, like a new car, I was loving it, on a real twisty bit and having a bit of fun and the car cut out for a second or 2 and when the turbo kicked in it was shit, between 1500 and 3500revs before full boost it was fine, found a spot to pull over and the idle was rough and noisy and it conked out. Checked everything I could see and nothing seemed to be off or leaking, 45Kls from home, in the bush so I babied it home,the end :)

I will have the ECU back today, I will put it back in and see what happens.

Taking it back to Sydney next week for the Haltech Pro R34GTR, while I am there I will get a new exhaust system and fuel system and hopefully make it back home this time,haha

That sounds like an intake gasket blowing, I have had two Apexi PFCs one of which for 10 years and they don't just drop a tune like that that I have ever experinced or heard of

When I say check the tune, they would have to have a car with exactly the same mods setup exactly the same way so they can run it up on the dyno

What exhaust are you looking for, I have an bolton 80mm cat back blitz or apexi, can not remember ATM, I took of my 34 I'm selling cheap :D

Also have a chat to unigroup about their Blackbox or insight with his new EmTron, both of which I would consider better value for money

I am booked in for all of the work to be done.

I do not know about the gasket blowing, but when we went on Face Time with the FC hand commander the settings were back to original tune , the car was running VERY rich, rough and noisy at idle and we went through it, changed a few settings and got the car running OK and I changed the plugs, they were BLACK! I guess I could have just waited for the ECU to come back with the tune reloaded and just drive it hoping that it was a once off, BUT I have a lot of trouble getting to Sydney and will do all of this at once and get it over with.

If they used another R34 I would think they would just take the other ECU out, plug mine in and reload my Tune from their files , pull it out and replace the other ECU.

I have been after more torque down low as the car was a shit DD the way it was. As you can see from the Dyno last time Brown and the old Dyno Blue that it is getting much better :)and I expect a little better again this time.

I have the exhaust being custom made , I want it free flowing but not too loud, I am in a small town and once you get targeted, your stuffed :(

I have never heard of most things on SAU :)

BUT just installed the ECU and took it for a run, all good, well for now

He sent the hand unit back in case I have trouble on the way to Sydney, hope I do not have to unwrap it :)

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
