Hey guys just a couple of quick questions. Should I buy a back up computer for my stagea and get that done by nistune. I haven't delt with nistune before, how long do they usually take to install and get my ecu back to me. And finally once I have it installed how hard is it to sell my current ECU. Or does anyone have a nistuned ECU for an auto s2 c34 that they want to sell????? ;)

Thanks for the plug. This is something I learnt the hard way. These barges are very lethargic off the line if you can't build boost on stall.

You can get places like Hills Motorsports to fit the Nistune if you don't want to send it off. There are other places who can install the board and base image as well but you need to do a little research on the Nistune site.

Thanks for the info. I have checked out the nistune site and read every page 5 times hahaha. I just don't know all the little things like what sort of turn around time they have, how accurate the base image/tune is. What I am really trying to find out is should I buy another ECU send that to nistune, get all the other bits and pieces together then get it tuned. Or do I get the nistune done with base tune to the mods I already have then upgrade tune on dyno with a tuner. I was thinking about using Just Engine Management in ingleburn to do the final tune.

Nistune won't give you a base tune to suit your mods.

It will be exactly the same as stock once the Nistune board is installed.

Then the tuner can change the map to suit.

Nistune don't tune cars. They make and sell the hardware and software so cars can be tuned.

Thanks Ben, that is exactly what I needed to hear.

Currently only have pod filter, splitfire coils, 3" turbo back exhaust, radiator air deflector. As for the power goals I don't want too much more but was thinking hi flow turbo, nistune. If I have to maybe injectors and fuel pump if needed.

It is time to take a deep breath and work out what you really want from the car before making the next step.

If you are making the jump to modify then you will most likely need a FMIC, boost controller, Nistune, hiflow turbo or decent aftermarket, decent catalytic converter, fuel pump and bigger injectors.

If you are prepared to live with the stock turbo you can leave out the bigger injectors and possibly the fuel pump but I would still make sure the rest is done.

Take your time deciding because every time you change your mind it costs more money to R&R parts and then you need to pay to retune.

      Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though.

      215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.

      That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.

      V37 Alarm settings and what the buttons do.

      By HYBRID VL · Posted

      I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models?
