New Software Better Than Power Fc

[BillyMako]

Today when i was speaking to a guy who works at Turbo Tune on sth rd. He mentioned that they have new software called nisstune or something like that. For $750 they redo the r33 ecu with just as many options if not more than a power fc can offer. It can be done to accept aftermarket injectors and turbos. Also, regency will think it is just the stock ecu.

Anyone know more about this?

Its probly a R32 ecu with the external vct controll re-mapped.. They can work well. why would you when for double your money you can get a power fc with a hand controller brand new.

if u can find them...brand new anyway

and then pay tuning on top

[BillyMako]

The $750 is including tuning. They said it will be better than a power fc.

[Guilt-Toy]

how can it be better then a power fc?

[Pauly33GTS-t]

how can the sky be blue...

hasnt it been resolved over and over that there is no substitute for a standard ecu that has been tuned absolutely perfectly. Z32 ecu prime example.

[Guilt-Toy]

do they give you the software and laptop adapter so you can tune it yourself or take it to another tuner next time? or do they make you take it to them all the time?

Re tune the R33 ECU eh?

Interesting... bit more detail would be nice i think before any claims are made

Is it real time?

Do you get the software? (useless if you dont as your restricted to thier tuning)

How much does a map adjustment cost?

What tables is it altering/access too

etc etc etc

I found this site:

http://home.aanet.com.au/nistune/

I utilises a daughterboard and comes with the software, consult cable, etc.... $200AUD for the board and $200AUD for the software.

If the r33 ecu is cracked and tuned, if you do any extra mods wouldnt it suffice to just simply add a SAFC for air:fuel alterations or SITC for ignition timing adjustments?

ie, my car is auto (Stagea FTW!1111!!!!!) with safc/sitc. unhook them from the ecu, edit the ecu, make a slight change (example; change rear muffler), rehook them back up and then do a quick dyno run/alteration to the aftermarket piggybacks?

hmmm the s15?

[Guilt-Toy]

LOL!!

to be honest that software / setup looks pretty damn good and if it did handle the r33 ECU i would be tempted to buy a workshop licence myself.

[tuitahi]

After googling I found some references to the author/developer working on the RB25 ECU and believing the solution would be available shortly and would cost only a fraction more.

A bit more info, but not Rb25

Here is a Niztune R32 rb20 chip they are selling on ebay

Not 100% sure, but I'd say its different people. Different spelling and the Nistune site is daughter boards exclusively.
