I'll just be over here with my shitbox that currently runs a Nistune and my new engine which will just be a Haltech because that's what my tuner uses.

Had no issues with the old plug and play in the 34, but wasn't exactly doing anything wild with it. 

The I/O expander and WB1 boxes all just sat out of way underthe dash, never gave it any thought.

Come to think of it, in all the forums and groups I'm in, only SAU seems to hate Haltech, but I that might be more that I'm in all the pleb groups and not ballers ones lol

 

well, if your preference is to have to buy all the hardware, whether you use the features or not, Haltech have that now too: https://www.haltech.com/product/ht-195000-nexus-r5-vcu/

And they've done some smart product development lately with the new CAN dashes and button setups

But I reckon horses for courses. Almost every car doesn't use more than the basic ECU features so just use whatever your tuner prefers in your budget. I've got Link in the stagea, Haltech in the GTR, Uprev in the Titan and no ECU at all in the patrol :p, they all do what they need to.

R32-25t, and pay mega dollars for all the software for motec for one car! Emtron has all the nasa in the one box no software add ons needed. It’s a one stop shop ECU 

I thought you were a don!!! a don wouldn’t care about the money a MoTeC costs they’d just spec everything into it and hand them a blank cheque

Haltech Platinum Pro, sure it might need all these boxes but it's solid
Haltech Elite Series, no need for a bunch of boxes - also coming soon canbus keypad integration

Cars forgetting tunes? more like tuners clicking on the wrong file and uploading an empty tune.

I've tuned probably more cars than all of you guys put together have tuned, so I speak from experience.

Only excuse for forgetting tunes are the old Adaptronic Selects, I literally had to carry a laptop in the car because on the odd day it would just corrupt itself and add in random values into the crank prime field (known bug).

Oh yeah, and even though people have Emtron and their tuners use Emtron, I'll be surprised if many even use the fuel modelling. Most still tune in VE because of time/customer's budget.

dropped by insight tonight the car is up and running. It literally is off it’s head, volume is akin to a MIG fighter jet It is the best sounding SR I’ve ever heard, my whole body was shaken from what sounds like a JUDD V8 w/ 320 degree cams. It’s on the dyno tomorrow Scott is going to wind it up his confidence in my physics has gained traction. It’s a special head that’s for sure, one of one

I'm quite fond of you Johnny but I just can't support haltech...shall I post the evidence of you losing your I/O mappings , of course you only spoke about that before haltech formed an alliance with you....

I have alllllllll the evidence LOL #pwned.

i think the removal of the squish pads really adds to the aggression of the sound....

i mean, we are talking soundwaves here and my soundwaves operate from a perfect hemisphere......yep, you got it, no squish pads to disrupt the exhaust gas catapulating into the manifolds. JUN really was onto something back in the 90's....

Is the head so special it will hold the bottom end together? 
 

Hope you don’t run out of fuel

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
