Hello,

I'm a UK tuner over in Melbourne currently, it's been drawn to my attention through various people that EcuTEK doesn't have a great name over here and having done some reading online it's my opinion that a large portion of the issues come from the tuners and also the way that EcuTEK is sold over here. I've personally tuned using EcuTEK, Cobb and Syvecs for one of the UK's leading GTR specialists and feel that EcuTEK is un-fairly handled over here.

So what you ask..

I'll check your tune for FREE.

You will likely know that I cannot work with your existing tune but I can assess your datalogs. I won't throw a load of technical words at you but will show you on the data where you tune could be better. Now if you're Melbourne based I can do this in person, if you're further afield and have an EcuTEK lead then I'm happy to look at your datalogs via email. For this to be FREE all I need from you is to see an invoice/receipt saying that you've paid for an EcuTEK tune from a EcuTEK tuner/agent.

For clarity, I also tune using Cobb and there's one statement that I feel needs to be made clearly.

Cobb/EcuTEK can BOTH make a safe, enjoyable, powerful map - it's all down to the tuner.

Anyone who tells you different has a vested interest in one way or the other.

In my opinion, I prefer EcuTEK as a platform - particularly for cars that are pushing past the boundaries of the stock MAFs where you can utilise the hybrid-speed density to utilise the MAF for cruise/drivability and SD for higher loads. I like that Cobb has access to fault codes etc, but if your car is tuned right you'll never need to access them :cool:

There are other points, but this isn't about selling EcuTEK - more about using my time in Australia wisely :) I'm here until late April...

Any comments are welcome, but make them factual based on YOUR experience with EcuTEK

Feel free to contact me on here or via my new for 2016 Facebook profile HERE

The R35 GTR owners dont use this forum much Dan, if i knew i would get you over to Sydney instead - more of us run Ecutek here than in Melbourne but you will find the majority run Cobb as that is what most local tuners are comfy with

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O

      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.
