Tell me more about these manualised autos

Tell me more about these manualised autos

No electronic control required. You manually select each gear and enjoy the fact you don't need to push the clutch pedal and the best bit is you just keep grabbing gears in a skid

[Trex]

What shifters work? Do you need a new valvebody? What is exactly involved? How does the stall converter react to it? After a manualised auto you can use any stand alone? etc etc... Obviously i don't know anything about autos besides the fact that mine is in good nick. I'm guessing the cost is around the 1-2g mark?

Tried searching quite a lot and i couldn't find anything, and i don't want to waste MV's time by calling them.

A few posts up I have a photo of my b&m shifter under the factory covers. I suggest you give mv a call that way you get all your questions answered they are good guys to talk to

My box cost $3500 with all the fruit. PM me if you got any other question

[tripsteady]

Are these the options or tuning the auto skyline r33 :

Toshi's tune

Nistune..need more info about this

eManage blue/ultimate

Safc and sitc

Power Fc

Are these users able to retain the shift logic? Toshi is all out of auto ecu's and wont be importing anymore so I dont know if he is an option. He mentioned not being able to do over 200rwkw or so on the eManage.

Want to see in excess of 230rwkw (have usual mods - intake/exhaust , injectors , fuel pump - high flow turbo to 18psi , trans cooler , mv valve body upgrade)

What ecu can I use that will retain daily drivability but get me to 230rwkw?

[Kinkstaah]

Nistune, Nistune, Nistune, Nistune, Nistune, Nistune, Nistune with a side of Nistune.

Just Nistune.

Nistune is what you want.

Nistune is what everyone should want.

[scotty nm35]

I do want Nistune, but they only make it for old cars worth less than my turbo.

[Kinkstaah]

I also realised after I wrote Nistune a lot, that the person asking has a 33 Auto, to which I have NFI if Nistuning will work as they typically change the ECU to a Z32 or RB20 ECU to boot.

Unsure if that even applies to Autos, actually.

What happened to that type6 guy saying he cracked the s1 c34 stagea ecu?

[Anfanee]

Oh i came here thinking that if i ask a question it would be automatically answered. Guess i came to the wrong neighbourhood.

Soo funny I forgot to laugh

Stu cornall tuning services in qld is making them. Just sent him a msg on Facebook.

If he doesn't reply, does someone else want to call him? I've been watching him from afar and following him from work and home. I KNOW he has been ignoring me!

FYI This is what the director of Nistune had to say after I emailed him regarding using nistune on an r33 automatic:

The only option I’ve found so far is to use the R32 ECU, TCU and an aftermarket VCT controller. This has been done by Steve at Advanced Jap Auto in Vic with indicated the setup works since the r33 TCU cannot be used with R32/Z32 ECUs

You would also need to upgrade the MAF to Z32 over 220rwkw

We cannot nistune the r33 ECU at this point. Another person is working on a solution but no news since Dec

If you wished to do this way then you need to source the R32 ecu and tcu plus Summit racing, buddy club etc RPM trigger switch for VCT and Nistune Type 2 board loaded with rb25 maps

[Ben C34]

You can also use a turbosmart eboost to control the vct switching. It has a configurable output.

Any word on the nistune?

I want better fuel Econ, so piggy backs are a waste of money.

[GTSBoy]

Why not look at the Nistune forum? The thread is easily found.

None yet. The guy who is building these for auto 33's has my email so will let you guys know as soon as he gets back to me.

Can you link me?

There's been no word since last year, the multiple threads on the net don't tell me anything on where it is up to.
