I dont think so, I think all tuners do a dyno tune then take it to the road to check that theres no knocks/get rid off knocks when they are present, they couldn't be arsed doing a road tune, when their time is money and another job is waiting in the line.. So there's no way to tell that your car has been road tuned unless you are a dud who believes most things people tell you and are easily mislead....ha ha

the best way is to spend the entire couple of days at the workshop or plant a secret camera in the car..omg.. As someone said earlier, most tuners would basically give u a before and after dyno print out to make you happy and believe your car has had a fantastic tune...what with the power increase on the printout..unless its someone you know / can trust etc..

Been to GAS Motorsport - the bloke I met there is so cool, a really friendly and helpful guy, u can tell they love their cars - they can tune same day - drive in and out provided theres no issues, plus u get to watch the tuner doin his tune, not only that, they have some really great prices too.

Anyone tuned their car with Nistune there?

And a awesome Supra they got in-house - GAS2JZ - 1200+HP at wheels! !

Wouldnt wana say that in forums, I dont think its good practice, but their workshop is one of the best and cleanest I've seen, and they make some really insane 2JZ cars, plus a really top bloke they have there as well

fair enough, it has already been posted in this thread that most big tuners do it for 1100, except CRD 1400.

then you say GAS have really great prices.

Has he tuned with nistune before?

he might put a RB in his drag car and start doing RB's instead of 2J after tuning your car lol

Drive in drive out same day isn't a full tune. There is no way they can check the cold start.

Nothing wrong with it, i have done it that way plenty of times, but you have to accept that it won't be perfect when cold.

On the plus side, the factory temp enrichment map is pretty forgiving so if you haven't gone overboard on mods you'll get away with it.

Wana book it in this weekend - so I found that my car is running really farked between 1000-1800ish rpms, like shuddering and jolting and misfiring, above that is awesome through to 7000rpms no dramas there at all, and feel like good power gain, idle is 90% okay but not as smooth as before.. Man its makin me nuts, feel like setting the whole damn thing alight!

Some peeps say I need a re-wire, some say I need a tune, anyways I think I will ask the tuner to take out the damn pump and check the voltages in diff rpms, and if thats stuffed, then re-wire or run a earth to the chasis from the fuel pump control modulator (where is this and what does it look like?)

I know there could be several things that can cause this problem - dirty AFM, coilpacks, sparkies, TPS etc, but definitely NOT this time, my car was fine and smooth as before I changed the pump, but running quite lean and not feeling as fast as now in the mid-high rpms..

    • My son saw this Porsche 904 in Yodoyabashi in Osaka, not sure if it's the plastic or fibreglass version 767605763.559358.mp4
    • I agree re not trusting it as it makes mistakes however can do hours of research for you at times by simply asking a question
    • The I've done a lot of research and feel like I'm becoming a nut and washer expert. The washer in question doesn’t look very conical—it’s almost flat, but one side has a chamfer. The guide's picture shows the convex side (chamfered side) facing the nut, but the text says the chamfer should face the pulley, which is confusing. If I follow the picture, the chamfer faces the nut, but the instructions say the opposite. When I place the washer on a flat surface, one side looks flatter—maybe that's the concave side—so I would expect the chamfer to be on that side. But it isn’t, which adds to the confusion. The term chamfer is also throwing me off. I always thought the concave side should face the pulley, and the convex side (with the chamfer) should face the nut or bolt head. But Nissan’s instructions say the chamfer should face the pulley, which seems backward. I know I’m probably overthinking it, but I want to be sure I’m doing it right. Also, I’ve seen some people replace the nut and stud with a bolt, but I assume that’s not a good idea, since it might not keep proper tension on the tensioner. Lastly, just to be 100% sure: the pressure washer should face the pulley, then the conical washer? That feels strange, since usually the pressure washer goes first, facing the bolt or nut.
    • I checked, i dont think it was the indicator stalk. The problem just magically fixed itself though. 
    • H1 is not the Humvee, but is the most road based version. Lachlan (HankScorpio) on here has a proper Humvee. He imported it a few years back.
