Can anyone recommend a place to get a decent tune? I've heard to stay away from Monster performance.

I'm running Injen CAI, Kinetix V+ Upper Plenum & soon to fit an exhaust so i want to get a tune done before i go to Townsville in December to get the air/fuel ratio back to normal and a bit more power.

Thanks

Don't really think it will need tuning i had Injen CAI, Motodyne Plenum Spacer and Fast Intension Dual Cat Back Exhaust on my 350Z and i never tuned it and it ran awesome, i also had the rev-up engine in mine which has extra 15kw form factory dunno if that would have made a difference. It's not a Forced induction car so doing those mods will not have a huge effect on the power level and getting it tuned will not do a great deal for it.

This was my initial thoughts but i had a friend recomend get a tune after i do the exhaust. I have noticed since installing the CAI that my fuel is absolutely guzzling out :/

Mines decreased a lot, yes i pulled the MAF out of the stock intake and into the Injen system. Didn't have any problems though it was just straight plug in. I'm probably getting not even 500km off a tank now

dont buy a turbo skyline then :P

I could be wrong but I think Ben was talking about adjusting the AFM perhaps?

I know you could do this on the VL's

but if your dead set on getting a tune I think your better off waiting till you get to Townsville. There are a few workshops there that sound trustworthy, more then I can say for here

It's N/A bro. Yeah i think that's going to be the go i may just have to wait until then.

Not sure what you have done to it but i was getting 600-700kms out my Z when i had it 8.7L per 100kms in town/highway/thrashing it didn't matter.

Ahh really, that's roughly what i'm getting per 100km though. I will fill up tonight and do a test, all i do is to and from work and out to ooralea a bit.

Oh I just meant if your complaining about fuel economy now, dont get a turbo Skyline haha. I'm lucky to get 400km around town out of mine, but I think I have some issues at the moment.

Is your tank smaller then the 350Z's? Seems to be the thing most people forget about. Complain there only getting 400km around town but then only have a 40L tank.

Find someone with a standalone wideband and go for a drive with that hooked up. Will tell you how far out your cruise mixtures are.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
