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

    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, much easier to work with it now it's free!
