Hi , I have 33 with FMIC exhaust , hks pod, apexi neo AFC and putting in a Electronic boost controller . I was wondering where i can take it for dyno tuning in and around the brisbane area and does anyone have an idea of how much it will cost?

another tick for godzilla motorsport

have been to a number of tuners, and godzilla have been the stand out of them all and specializes in PFC and other aftermarket ecus. Tunes are performed with laptop software ( none of this handheld shit) to get the ultimate tune right through the rev range.

proof: Mark's 1000hp 8 sec r32 gtr. obviously shows that mark knows his shit and knows what hes doing.

do yourself a favour and do these first.

new spark plugs gapped to 0.8mm

new oil

new oil filter.

if you have stock coils, tape them up good with electrical tape.

the cost always ends up higher than what is quoted because you increase boost and power and you find the spark gives up and you hit missfire issues.

so unless you have split fire coils already, and don't want to spend $500+ on them or get the shits when you book in for a tune and they can't do it cause of spark issues, do the above first.

then they will only charge you for the install/tune.

got the quote today he said $500 with my basic mods, turbo back exhaust, 12psi boost, R34 cooler, pod, which seems pretty good

sparkies already gapped at 0.8, coils removed and refitted with high temp silicone (was getting miss firing at 10 psi, had heaps of coils cracks) , hmmm oil has only done a few thousand clicks should probably change it I guess but that depends on level of motivation.

400KW is #$%^%^ crazy!!!

not sure, but it could just be the same time to tune... my old tuner who was an autronic specialist in sydney did mine within a reasonable time, same time as the power fc i had before. they probs just have a flat rate for tuning, as my old tuner did no matter what ecu... either way you'll be satisfied with the results, and its not that much considering they know hands down what they are doin i spose

hehe yeh 400 is fun, were gonna have it tuned up again just before jambo get around 450 out of it... got the gtr rear end going in now

Dump / Front pipe

Hi / Low Boost setting - Dont want to spend on ECU still

Still running Nissan Coil pack though..

i have stock coils and i didnt need to tape them up lol, when changing plugs the .8 gap is a good idea but u also want to go to a colder temp range. or was that hotter :thumbsup:

    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.  
    • Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
    • There is a warning that "this thread is super old" but they ignore that anyway...
    • With 10% Ethanol, we're talking 2-3% fuel consumption difference. The emissions reductions and octane boost in my opinion far outweigh this almost non existent loss.    My tanks sitting at 80%. Luckily that should go down fast as I'm on vacation again for the next two weeks.
