Wait, E85 can be tuned with Nistune?

Any ecu capable of controlling injector flow rate, which is any programmable ecu really, can tune for E85. An E85 tune is only more fuel delivery and advanced timing taking advantage of the high octane.

Good tv hey! You got a bargain. Think mine was a few hundred more a few months before the end of last year.

Mad tv for the price. Makes me want a bigger tv though, a lot of difference going from 55" in my bedroom to that downstairs lol

hey i saw KARAUAN on the freeway last night

Should have beeped! Didn't see you though

Not cause internet, not sure really why I never thought about it.... well, think I might head down the e85 route when tuning comes around. Prob soonish.

Yeah it has to be the latest Nistune though, older version's won't do the Flex Fuel as it has to come with the attachment in the ECU.

Birds is right though, carrying around a laptop would do just fine to get you home on 98. I've currently got my standard ECU sitting in the back of the car so if I get stuck on the way back from phillip island, just put a full tank in of 98 and plug standard ECU in, it'll be like running 101 octane for the thing. (My Flex Fuel hasn't been turned on just yet, we have the wrong firmware for the Nistune software).

Yeh, I haven't seen anyone have much luck with bigger injectors in the stock ecu.

I used to leave a notebook and datalogit in the glovebox.

Notebooks are only like $200

flexfuel capabilities for nistune available now??

for r34 as well?

seems R34 very close:

Finally did our flex fuel dyno runs on my R34 Skyline:
- Nistune ECU (Type 4 with Feature Pack 1 - Flex fuel enabled)
- 1000CC ID injectors
- HPX N-1 MAF sensor in 3" tube
- Tomei poncams
- GT3071R turbo
- Trust exhaust system, large FMIC
- Bosch 040 fuel pump
- Jim Berry 300ZX clutch setup

98: 289rwkw @ 17psi
E85: 313rwkw @ 17 psi (Measuring about 78% during the run)

HPX are tuning up really nicely. More info here:

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to come I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
