Hey guys I have a question. I am keen to have my ecu rechipped, with nistune

but I also have a ecutalk v2 display, I was wondering if the 2 were

compatible and if my ecutalk display would still work after having nistune installed.

I have done several searches on google and various forums and I have been unable to find any info. :laugh:

any help would go a long way thanks.

hey ppl, might be a silly question but does nistune use an afm?? eg, if wanting to upgrade to a z32afm, is it needed or not??

cheers

If someone was to make a map sensor replacement module for the nistune/stock ecu would there be much interest in something like this?

It can certainly be built but if theres no interest I won't bother researching it.

already looked into this. Should be very simple, read in map sensor values read in air temp sensor add correction factor output 0 - 5v signal back to the ecu. Main thing would be the need for a complete retune of entire map, but this effort could be minimized with extensive logging of afm and map values in parallel(Similar to the holden MAFless tunes). I believe some one has also used TPS as loading on an NA Vl commodore using nistune

Yep if you did no correction and just made sure it was linear in the range used from 0-5v it would still be very easy to tune.

Ah so many ideas and so little time. Need to get my car running and buy a decent oscilloscope so I can finish the VCT controller I've been carrying on about.

I can confirm my ecutalk v2 display (and 1.3.x windows software) work fine in my nistune'd R32 GTR. love the new 2.02 firmware with the user-configurable alarms and am gagging for the eventual logging to micro-sd.

hey guys i just bought a r32 gts4 and was thinking of doing the nistune upgrade for the ecu, but i want to change it to a manual as well. would i need to get a manual ecu or a gtr ecu? or would it be fine once the daughterboard is installed? don't wanna upgrade then find out i need a new ecu lol.

the daughterboard can be reprogrammed for different ROM images. bascially we can put a manual program in auto ECU no problems

GTR ECU is completely different you wont be needing that in a GTS-4 unless doing an RB26 transplant with twin AFMs

Are the daughterboards for 32GTSt and 32GTR the same?

Reason I am asking is I am looking at Nistuning my 32gtst but if I max out my z32 afm, I am wondering if I can swap the daughterboard in to a 32GTR ECU and get a GTR image loaded on there ? (and then run a GTR engine harness and twin afm's)

Wanting to buy a board and tunning package to have a play with.

Any one else using it? What do you think f it?

How do you buy it? Ive sent emails no one answers

I bought and installed my Nistune daughterboard direct from the guys that make it.

It is installed in my S13, and was tuned by Mark @ MRC dyno in castle hill. I haven't had any issues with it, and for the price i think it is an excellent option.

got a question for ya's

i have a type 4 daughter board in my r34.

I know that the daughter board has its own EEPROM that we can change the values in while tuning in nistune software. And the original ECU's EEPROM stays unchanged, we just tell the ECU to read from our new EEPROM. Is this correct?

If this is correct, could i tune my car on pump fuel 98, then take the hex file from the daughter board's EEPROM and burn it into the original ECU's EEPROM, then re-tune the daughter board as usual on e85 fuel? then i just have to run a couple of switch wires from the jumper pins on the original ECU to the dash and i have instant capability to drive on either fuel.

But is it even possible to burn a new image into the original ECU?

and can anyone see any major flaws in my idea?

    • This is the clearest explanation out of those: Page 77: Turn the crankshaft clockwise two full rotations with the tensioner pulley installation bolt in a loose condition. Insert a wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole to fix the tensioner pulley in place, then tighten the installation bolts. Tightening torque: 43–58 N·m (4.4–5.9 kg·m). The timing belt tension should be at the correct tension. Basically you turn the engine with the tensioner bolt loose, then use the allen key to hold it while you torque it up. And yes after that a good guide is being able to twist it 90o in one of the long free lengths of the belt
    • good choice....I have a set of those and use them all the time including on this job. Plus, no-one wants a damaged nipple
    • Thanks all, went with nismo strengthened belt and all genuine nissan idler and tensioner Question on RB25DET Neo Timing Tensioner: I have a question about the RB25DET Neo timing tensioner. In one of the videos (minute 20 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17y37BB9xnA and minute 27 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb99s2E9xUg), the process suggests tightening the tensioner pulley installation bolt to the specified torque initially, and then loosening it slightly to allow the spring to set the correct tension. Is this the correct approach? The R33 workshop manual on page 74 states: Loosen the tension pulley installation nuts. Insert the wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole and turn it clockwise to tighten the installation nut temporarily. The way this is written is confusing. Does this mean: Undo the nut, then reduce the tension by turning clockwise? Snug the nut so it stays in position without applying tension to the belt while removing the timing belt? The manual wording makes it sound like the nut will tighten automatically when you turn the tensioner clockwise , which is unclear to me.   Timing Belt Tension Adjustment Process: After loosening the tensioner nut, you turn the engine two full rotations by hand, which should set the correct tension. Once the tension is set, you tighten the bolt to 43 N·m (4.4 kg·m). Before tightening, you need to insert the Allen key into the hexagonal hole to hold the pulley in place while tightening the bolt. In one of the videos, it’s mentioned that you should twist the belt side to side, or turn it slightly to check if the tension is correct. The belt should turn halfway, indicating the right tension. However, I know that twisting or turning the belt is not a good idea. What are your thoughts on this? Finally, how can I ensure the belt isn’t overtightened? I’ve seen many cases where people have overtightened the timing belt.   Manual Excerpts: Page 74: Loosen the tension pulley installation nuts. Insert the wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole and turn it clockwise to tighten the installation nut temporarily. Remove the timing belt from each pulley. Page 77: Turn the crankshaft clockwise two full rotations with the tensioner pulley installation bolt in a loose condition. Insert a wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole to fix the tensioner pulley in place, then tighten the installation bolts. Tightening torque: 43–58 N·m (4.4–5.9 kg·m). The timing belt tension should be at the correct tension.
    • Takes a few minutes to malke one. Wood, or steel, or a wrap strap with some strategically placed solids to provide teh drive onto the ribs.
    • I would strongly suggest using the correct tool. They are not expensive and make the job much easier and don't damage the lock ring. Google "fuel tank lock ring removal tool" to see what I'm talking about.
