hey guys

i spotted this ksport tuned rom on ebay here: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...ADME:L:RTQ:AU:1

im not sure if it will work with my auto r33 gtst series 1 or not.

so i though i'd ask here before i dove into possibly buying it.

anyone have any experience with these?

cheers

i cant believe someone bid $400 bucks......... squid.

most importers have boxes of them laying around average sell price..... 50-100 bucks.

oh yeah do you get a refund if it does not make 240rwkw like claimed :(

I have one in my 31, runs a bit rich like any jap spec ecu but made a big difference over the stock ecu as the car is much more rev happy now up top.

Also mine has a switch that comes out the back of the ecu to turn the speed limiter off.

thanks for the replies guys, didnt bother with it in the end. went for $501

decided id go for the greddy e-manage ultimate with having an auto. should do the trick. should have it in and tuned in the next few weeks. will let you all know how i go as i know the whole auto/aftermarket ecu sector is a bit confusing at the moment. i might be able to shed some light on things.

any info you guys have regarding this option would also be greatful. i have been searching the forums finding some useful info but it's all still pretty confusing as to what is good and whats not and what works properly.

thanks again

yeah a pfc would be great, its just finding one thats the problem.

and if you do find one they are $1500ish :whistling:

for that much i can get an emanage ultimate, put it in and have it tuned prob with money left over

    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
