Just bought my first stagea 

love it as I’ve always wanted one! 

It recently had a manual conversion done but still has the auto ecu 

I’m about to put a 3 inch turbo back exhaust on it and want to get a tune 

am I able to tune the auto ecu or would I be better upgrading the ecu, if so, to what 

 

cheers

Assuming it's a 25 Neo just get a Nistune for your existing ECU mate, no need to upgrade further for basic mods like a turbo back. I've got a GTT with manual conversion and the original auto ECU with Nistune works just fine.

OK so its a bit harder. Nistune is not available for the R33 type ECU. Just stick the exhaust on and up the boost to 10psi and the stock ecu will cope.

if you start putting a bigger turbo  on etc  you can consider options such as  Link or diffferent ecu that will take a Nistune chip.

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2

      Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.

      Speed Sensor replacement

      Hey all. I’m looking on replacing my speed sensor on my R33 GTR. Will the center differential need to be drained, and if so, the center diff uses ATF fluid D? I found information on the transmission, front diff and rear diff. Can’t find a for sure answer for the center diff. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
