The Automatic Performance Thread

I wish I could find a tuning option for my auto

A few Options

Adaptronic E1280, Wolf 3D V550, The Newer AEMs can do it, Holley Dominator EFI will do it shortly

[Trex]

I was looking at the aem fic, but i kept reading that they cant tune throttle percentages, they can only tune at wot. I'm unsure how this works. Have they changed something?

[tripsteady]

Man what happened to all the auto guys? This thread is dead...

Are these the options or tuning the auto skyline r33 :

Toshi's tune

Nistune..need more info about this

eManage blue/ultimate

Safc and sitc

Power Fc

Are these users able to retain the shift logic? Toshi is all out of auto ecu's and wont be importing anymore so I dont know if he is an option. He mentioned not being able to do over 200rwkw or so on the eManage.

Want to see in excess of 230rwkw (have usual mods - intake/exhaust , injectors , fuel pump - high flow turbo to 18psi , trans cooler , mv valve body upgrade)

What ecu can I use that will retain daily drivability but get me to 230rwkw?

Is this true. We used to be looking for ecu's to retain auto shift logic everywhere. Have I been that behind the times or do all the above retain the auto boxes shift logic in an r33?

[Trex]

They're piggy backs. dvs jez has tuned an adaptronic on an auto 33. If i recall the mods correctly it would have had around 280kw

Stu released a Type 6 board (still beta/prototype) to nistune your stock ECU (in the past had to be a Z32 8-bit ECU)

There was a thread started in this forum, however r31nismod decided to delete it because it sounded too much of a trader ad.

You should speak to Mat from Nistune, he might have a solution for you retaining your factory ECU, however with the new type 6 nistune board.

I, myself have not used (type 6 that is) however it looks very promising, have however used/tuned other nistune vehicles and it's great.

Thanks will have a look and report back

If those type 6 boards work well they will sell like hot cakes. stu cornall is making them and nistune couldn't really give me any info

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

best part about nistune is their trace functionality, shows you a load trace and display afr or whatever value you want

other ECU software you need to log, then read the log for that view (just makes it a tiny bit more time consuming)

I've been following Stu's post, seems the 1st batch were slightly dodgy however it appears it may have been fixed.

[scotty nm35]

He mentioned not being able to do over 200rwkw or so on the eManage.

Why? If he is worried about knock, shoving e85 in the tank will fix that...

I have seen 250kw easily on petrol safely, and over 300kw on my Ethanol Emanage Ultimate tunes. I can't see why the VQ would be any different to RB tuning...

I think he's missing a vital piece of information, and that's probably the stock automatic gearbox will go kaput with over 200kW

[scotty nm35]

A shift kit should see it to 250kw fairly easily... Then again, the clutches are probably 20 years old.

[Plattsy]

my auto had over 200 on stage 2 valve bodies, hypergear turbo and emange ecu.

your afm will need to be changed.

[dopey]

Only just found this thread so sorry if i have missed this but y cant we just put a manual valve body in and wire the od switch into a diffrent power sauce and just run a manual ecu ? O and I have a r32 with 220 rwhp probly a bit more now and a 3500rpm converter and loving it.

[Kinkstaah]

I believe you can do exactly that.

It is also possible to have a completely standalone computer (at least for the R34) for the automatic side of things. This is probably 'better' than going full manual, because you can configure absolutely everything that a transmission can do.

[steve200b]

Full manual gives you full control
