This question is for all the guys with r32's that still have a rb20det.

What ecu are you guys running??

I have been thinking about getting either an aftermarket ecu or getting my standard ecu remapped.

For aftermarket ones i was thinking ap engineering, if i can find one, or something elsebut not sure what else yet. the problem is they all have an initial outlay on top of the tunning which is why im thinking more along the lines of getting my standard ecu remapped and that way i still keep all the standard protections in the standard ecu. I have heard good things from remapped ecu's making basically the same power etc etc

Just want opionions on what some others have done. For those that have a standard ecu remapped where did you get it done and roughly how much did it cost??

gettting my stock ecu remapped was the best around 390$ (ALL UP chip,tune) i have ever spent on my car.. btw.. i got a remapped done (with a Generic tune for basic bolt on mods ect.. u know, fmic, fuel pump, fuel reg, splitfires, rb25 turbo @ 13psi, 3" split dump zorst ect ect.. i told him wat i had.. he did it, and mailed to me... the guy was off SAU his name was.. CEFFIE or somthing :P.. but really u just want that remapped chip just so it removes like the stock limits ect.. like 180km speed cut, boost cut, and rev limit raised abit and air fuel ratio changed to around 12:1 or somthing cant really remember lol... THEN i went an got my car dyno tuned (prolly just fiddiling with fuel reg n shit to get it spot on ect.. and u get real time diagonostics ect.. that($280 INC service @ hi torque).. (got fine tuned getting it safe and strong, after that.. 220kw ftw.. :) def way to go bud. :) BUT!!! u know.. if u got the cash.. Power Fc would be awsome..2k later :P:thumbsup: they are rare as f*k! For the rb20 lol:(

Already have all my limits take out (boost cut, speed limit, rev cut) so just after the tune to get my car running just right and get a bit more power out of her.

And for 1700+, what it costs to buy the power fc, i can probably have a couple of tunes done and have a bit of money left over.

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
