How To Get Rid Of Sluggish Coldstart/warmup And Bad Fuel Economy On Your Nistuned Rb20Det/z32/gtr Ecu.

Who knows then!

Hey rolls quick question about this

Can you make these changes via a trail version of nistune?

I don't want to pay a workshop in ACT to make these small changes because I'm sure they will try charge an arm and a leg and DVS lives too far away for something this small

Pretty sure they don't make a trial version of nistune anymore, you should email pete/matt and say this is the only change you want to make, they might be able to help you out or point you in the direction of someone who can do it for basically free, they are both good blokes so I'm sure they will at least suggest something.

If they do have a trial version, let us all know!

That's a shame that people do that Matt.

As it would take literally 5minutes, perhaps your tuner could make the changes for free or cheap as Manuel Kasko, especially as you are bringing in a bit if knowledge for them to help future customers.

Spoke to Nistune which I guess is Matt above haha.
Too many dodge people have wrecked it for us.

I'm going to wait for my 34 to pass compliance, then I will pull the ECU out of the 33 and send it to Matt to get sorted.

Tuner is about 4 hours drive from here.

ACT Nistune tuners will probably charge me too much for the changes.

Changes are disabled in the trial now, because some people would tune customers cars using the trial version!

If people are so cheap they won't spend the $200 to get a personal license (even though they should get a tuners license) then I doubt getting rid of the trial version will stop them, they will probably just steal someone elses license code or get 20 people to chip in and do that.

Do you have checks in the software to stop people sharing license keys?

Why not give a tuner a call? explain exactly what you want them to do, surely they wont charge you more than $20 for a 5 minute job.

    • Thanks for your insight, it being basically useless will impact my decision for sure. I thought it may help the engine breath better I guess. But then again, I have also been told that tuning an RB20DE is also not worth it. Exactly, we follow EU Regulations. There is a bit more leeway on older vehicles. My Porsche 924 came without a cat from factory and managed to pass, they still mentioned that I have quite high emissions on it though.
    • My apologies, I stand corrected. Thanks for registering to mention this! And thank you for actually reaching out to the council to clarify. This is the sensible thing to do and the opposite of what I was alluding you were doing. I may have seen too much outrage and hate being fueled on the internet and it has made me a somewhat cynical old man. Sometimes it is easy to forget that there are real people behind websites and accounts. In my defence, CarExpert and CarExplore do read quite similarly at a glance. I shall try and do better in the future. (Please stick around to get the latest scoops on dealing with old Nissan shitboxes )
    • Don't bother. The poor little RB20 doesn't make enough gas flow to challenge the flow capabilities of even the littlest cat, and you won't make any extra power, and all you'll do it soot up your rear bumper. Plus....is Malta not runing under Euro regs?
    • Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!    
    • Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine.
