Mate take it to no one but Kutzie at Pro Automotive......  He's been doing them for so long with enough experience to really know what he's doing.  Good job, good price and fantastic support.

Yeah Andy has been doing my stuff for years. Very good with PFC.

check out the update thread in the Tassie section of the Nissansilvia.com forums...

Not only that but personal experince as well.

The biggest problem we have here in Tassie and no disrespect to Andy at all but we really dont have a tuner down here that has enough experince or that is confident with aftermarket ECU's like the PFC, E-management, Microtech, Haltech etc.

Sam tuned my stock ECU (i sent it to him via express post) did the tune i asked for with the readings and info i gave him and its was 99.99% on the money.

Not bad considering he didn't even touch the car (just told me the settings to go with)

So as for getting a tune with the PFC, i'll wait till we fly Sam down for the dyno day or i'll go and see Brad and have a little trip to Launie :D

Just my 2cents so dont go taking it to heart, like i said im going off personal experince and from friends experience and have made up my "OWN" mind.

Cheers B

Does brad Sherif tune PFC? I went to him to get mine done, and he said he wasn't convinced about there tuning ablility, and they can take to long to tune. He said that I was probably getting it done somewhere else cause he would cost to much.

makes it pretty expensive having to go to Melb for a tune.

I think I'll just stick with my old mechanic for servicing requirements and when I can afford to, take it to racepace for a tune. Probably wont bother until we have 98RON at the pump tho.

Who said anything about going to melbourne <_<

We are looking at flying Sam over to do all our cars over here, but seeing as i have a road trip planned i'll be taking ANIMAL with me anyway so i'll stop in on the way and kill 2 birds with one stone :O

Umm i believe a good tuner can have a PFC on the way to a good tune in an hour... can anyone say Benno at Racepace?

should be around an hour or so for a "GOOD" tuner

Where is Racepace?

Melbourne champ

How long is he down for and when? Also who's dyno is he using? how much is he charging? Is he just remapping ecu's or is he open to doing powerfc's and SAFC IIs?

Is there a thread about this?? !!! :lol:

Its pretty obvious that if no one down here is good enough you'd take it to melbourne.

al_r33 racepace is own of the best known workshops for imports in australia. It's in melbourne: http://racepacemotorsport.com/main.html

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
