Hi all

I have an old eprom nistune rb25det ecu laying around from before my engine build. I am now looking at having my car retuned again but not sure if you use the old eprom nistune ecu or go with a z32 nistune. I have herd that the eprom way had some issues …

car currently has a stock ECU

Definitely go with a Z32 or R32 gtst ecu and get a nistune module installed. If the rb25det only has a remapped eprom in it it wont save you any money, it also means it is harder for them to do the remapping most the time as the software is not as good, unless there is a way to use the nistune software with an emulator.

Z32 ecu means you retain the VCT but is a bit more mucking around to get it going, there is a thread here discussing them all though, prob a good idea to have a read and see which ECU out of the R32 and Z32 is the better option.

      @Kinkstaah yeah I initially checked with Chequered as I've used them with a previous car. But they have stopped sourcing and installing Nistune chips. They only do tuning now. I did not want to pull out my ECU and send it away somewhere to have the chip installed. That would mean no driving the Skyline

      Should have checked that.  On the plus side, I got my Bluetooth adaptor.

      Each province differs a bit but we only do mandatory vehicle inspections here for heavy vehicles (Think Ford F350 and up). Those inspections are done by mechanics that are approved by the government. Besides that, it's a free for all as long as the car looks stock.  I asked because I love seeing how engineering differs from country to country. Here in Canada, all designs must be stamped and signed before they can be brought to fruition. (I.E Bridges, structures, Electrical panels, machines, literally everything shy of a wooden table) This can only be done by a professional engineer or professional engineering technologist. Both are protected titles, but the latter having more of a limited scope in what they can stamp. To become a professional engineer, you must complete a 4-5 year bachelors degree in your field of engineering, be part of an engineering order and undergo 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and mandatory continues education. Same story for engineering technologists, but a 3 year associates degree in some form of engineering technology will suffice. If you do not comply, or pretend you're an engineer or technologist, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails and kills someone (I.E Bridge collapse) Off to jail you go for a very long time, your family will be ridiculed on the news, neighbours will surround your home with pitch forks and your dog will disown you.  Same for specialised trades... Example Electricians must undergo 1.5 years of post high school education, 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and hold proper licences. It's for the best, but then we also wonder why we're so short on engineers and tradesmen haha. We also have professional engineers who were only school smart but have no idea how a drill works. They generally go straight into management roles out of school which is also for the best.

      Not currently, I'm at the school where we teach people to build bridges and other fun things that involve making, or breaking things

      I have a friend who has used Chequered Tuning and CMS. Went to CMS when Chequered had a long wait time which is kind of the norm (for good reason). Was very happy - I'm pretty sure the very simple thing you're asking will be simple.
