Quick question ive got an auto r34 gt-t currently with safc II was looking to upgrade from that to a nistune, would there be any problems since its auto?

NIStune is actually the only real solution for you if you want to remain auto.

The only real difference between PowerFC and Nistune is that with Nistune

you have a full blown PC-Interface and you can log/tune/store your maps on a laptop.

That's why I bought Nistune.

With PowerFC you need an additional add-on called DataLogit to have that kind of connectivity.

PowerFC=Tried, tested and proved; fire and forget solution.

Nistune=Better connectivity, a bit more hassle to install.

Cheers :)

Ok so im not gunna make any substantial power gains with a power fc then?

Best off just keeping the nistune and getting it re-tuned when i get my injector and turbo upgrade then?

Can i get some opinions of good RB25 tuners in sydney who can work wonders with my nistune?:thanks:

No. No it doesn't. Hence bubba's post. PowerFC and auto are non-compatible. The Neo in particular is worse than even the R33 in that respect because there is no separate TCU that you could even hope to try to make work without the original ECU. The TCU is inside the ECU.

sorry to drag up an old thread guys, but i was wondering if someone could help me.

I purchased an R33 s1 about 6 months ago and have only just looked at the ecu this weekend. I googled the numbers on the ecu cause it had a sticker on it.

according to other forums, its a 300zx ecu ( I assume this is a Z32 ecu).

what mods can this support? i have 725cc injectors and a super t 70 i wanna put on the car.

Also will i need to get a z32 afm?

thanks guys

    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
    • Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
