the only downside to Nistune is that it doesn't have any "real" inputs for engine protection such as wideband feedback for lean out, or pressure switch inputs for low fuel pressure and/or low oil pressure

Other than that, it's 1000000000x light years ahead of PowerFC

Has engine protection ever actually "protected" a engine from failure though?
Referring to adaptronic/haltech and such.

My thoughts would be....it would be to late anyway...maybe it could stop "major" damage but at that point...you should know already lol
I guess it depends on the point of "failure"

Fyi, im at about 440hp atw with z32 afm
Pretty sure it can do over 500hp with a correct afm

Yes. I have seen video of an RB30 with a Link cutting the power when the oil pressure gets too low and no, the car did not spin out and crash in a ball of fire.

yeah ive seen many cases where engine protection has stopped or at lest reduced damage to engines.. if your paying top dollar for an ecu youve probably got alot of cash sunk into your engine too.. it wouldn't be used if it didn't work. theoretically

also my nistune has been flawless..even with the flex tune..definitely recommend

Whats the max hp the Nistune type 4 can handle. Is it suitable for a 30 25 neo with gtx3582r freddy plenum 1000cc injector hpx1 airflow meter.

Will it be up to the task

made over 600rwkw, airflow meter is the key, if you can measure the air your good to go. The new HPX in a 4" tube will go 1200 plus hp

Would you be able to tell me how? Either through this thread or PM? I cannot find it in the settings.

Pretty much two options from my personal experience.

1. Set the AFM to Z32 and click on half value (if running 2) and adjust k value till your car hits stoich with o2 feedback disabled

2. Leave as is and adjust the k constant till you hit stoich on idle with the O2 feedback flag disabled

The beauty of the Nismo or Z32 etc. Is that the curve is nearly stock so there's no fancy calibration need like the HPX afm which I've yet to use.

    • Yeah kids certainly add a whole another dimension to your life.  Life ceases to be about you and more about them for a while!  And I wouldn't have it any other way.  I love watching them play sport and make new friends along the way. Wow, sounds like your mate is a good guy to know!!!  He's got some serious toys in the toy box!  Yes it would be lovely to be able to do stuff to your car without getting all tied up in boring shit like how to pay for it!!  I would describe my spending style as "aggressively spontaneous and logical but regrettable purchasing"....  That will hopefully make no sense at all which would be appropriate given that is how I buy stuff.  I'll decide at the drop of a hat that I'm buying something expensive, research the living shit out of it for 2 days straight then go out and buy it.  Then I'll have instant buyers remorse for 2 days which generally passes by the time it turns up on the front step!  If I'm feeling ballsy sometimes I'll tell my wife.  Other times it just makes its way silently passed the house and out the back to the shed, never to be spoken of again...
    • My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.
    • I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
    • I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended
    • Yeah mate, no probs. Just swap the email addresses?
