Yeah wideband is not necessary but CLL certainly improves economy a touch.

As said the tune should get you decent economy on its own but if it was only tuned on a dyno then they may not have bothered doing cruise AFR'S.

I was going to say in my first post that the power seemed low for a GTR....... If it were me I'd go somewhere else

I have a Power FC Z32 AFMs and my O2 sensors turned off since like 2009 maybe and I got around 650km from a tank full ( just shy of 60L ) earlier this year

Fix what you know isn't right first before looking for something that might not be right, if it still has the compliance cat then piss it off and get a good metal cat in there, no more then 200cells per inch, no less then 100 then go from there

I'm talking about my 32 here if it wasn't obvious :D

Don't wish to be rude but I have heard people before saying they can't find any decent RB tuners in Brisbane - if you can't make it all the way to Sydney it seems Guilt Toy (Anthony) is back in Australia and has a dyno in Newcastle. Might be worth the trip (and yes got rid of the O2 sensor when I got my Link).

BTW if you don't change your cat and do go back to the same tuner ask him to drop the exhaust and do another run.

Mercury Motorsport, home of NITTO and NITTO II, the later which set a new world record for a GTR on radials. Quickest and fastest 7.93 @ 175Mph.

Might know a thing or two about tuning an RB. In Brisbane too.

Suprused you would buy a link and run a shit cat.

yeah i know, its been on the to do list for a while but when i bought the link it was extremely cheap, but ive booked it in to have the cat replace next week then its going back for a retune

i was orginially planning on going to mercury but ive heard some bad rumours about them from some other gtr owners ive spoken to.

definately go back, i have had no problems with my tune from them.

replace cat and check for any leaks.

or grab a wideband and touch up the tune yourself

yeah im sure its something small and theyll figure it out when it goes back in for a retune.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
