The reason I had trouble is that the unit I was trying to tune as a Pro wasnt. Some less that desirable had installed an FC Pro sticker on the box, but other than that it was an absolutely conventional R32/R33 GTR computer. I deal directly with AP Engineering in Japan, so can source any of their 'domestic only' parts such as RB20DET FC, 1JZ FC etc if you happen to need them

I have one on the way. So you will see my car probably Dec as I am away all Nov. I am still trying to source a HC for it. However that wont stop me tuning it. I guess all your gear would be new. I would prefer a 2nd hand one for $300 if you can source that. When do you think you will get to play with the laptop program Mark was talking about at LS1 dyno day. It would be nice to have mine done via laptop. On the tuning side do you think I could save some time and money by fitting it myself. I have a friend with PowerFC car has the same Mods. I could copy his maps and he knows the tricks ie turn boost control off etc. Then bring it in to Tilbrooks for final tune before driving too hard with it.

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
