This guy will do custom ones,

http://grapevine.com.au/~marzenna/

I think he was mentioned on the forum before - maybe there's some feedback on him so try searching.

$150, or $300 if your changing injectors or AFMs. He says you should dyno the car after you install the chip - sensible advice.

Any tuned chip will give a noticible difference compared to stock which runs rich and has shit timing maps... i had a similar tuned chip in my car for about a year which had a bit of power but ran really rich down low.....

After putting my new turbo, injectors, afm, and all the other supporting mods, CEF11E tuned an eprom chip for me (costing only $50), send it to me, and i put it in and put it on the dyno (normally $50 for a power run but got them to tune my boost controller so it was $150) and the AFMS were PERFECT, the car made a beautiful 230rwkw and CEF11E hadnt even seen the car....

Pretty impressive if you ask me, Cheap as, perfect maps, and ive since done some more mods and he is sending me another chip!

Hes tuning Canberra cars like no tomorrow and a few more sydney cars too!

hehe thanks for the plug haysey :domokun:

I would just like to add a bit of information and you can choose to dismiss or take it on board as you like.

Tuning an engine is not something to be done with a few seconds thought. your engine is a valuable piece of equipment and needs to be respected. yes you can buy a remap for your car from ebay but it's a bit like buying a kebab late at night when you are drunk... do you really know what you are getting?

There are people that you can go to and get a professional result:

Dr Drift - Melbourne. really knows what he is doing as is a pioneer, has been doing it for a long time and he is a professional from all the results i have seen.

Speedlab - Jeff - Brisbane? Jeff also knows nissan ecu's backwards and has a lot of proven results and is great to talk to.

Toshi - from these forums also has a lot of results and has been tuning for years since the old schooldays of fj20's in japan.

Yoshitokio - from these forums also has some proven results and has tuned 300rwkw+ cars using the standard nissan ecu.

All these tuners will do a top notch job and you can feel safe shelling out a few bucks to get your pride and joy tuned safely and with fantastic results. they all differ from the fly by night operations that sell a one size fits all tune for $80 bucks from who knows where.

I am by no means a professional and tune for the love of results and interest in performance nissans and I am happy to help forum members out. I have a lot of love for the RB as do all the guys listed above. I have no knowledge of the tunes sold on ebay and do not wish to comment on their merit. But ss the saying goes... pay peanuts, get monkeys...

there is a lot that needs to be done right when tuning nissan ecu's.

Is the chip being used the correct NS rating?

Has the TP scale been set to suit your mods?

what has the tp limit been set to?

What has the rev limit been set to?

Do you have any idea what the timing you will be running be?

seriously ask these questions, it's your engine after all.

Thanks for reading :P

    • Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?
    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
    • You have no idea how many goddamn boxes I received these past three months haha Most have been put to use by now though, luckily
    • Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
