At the moment looking to squeeze some more power from the stick ecu if at all possible? I've spoke to Tunehouse and they can't help as they have no harness they say to connect to that ecu. Is the only possible way to tune it and get some more low to midrange power and torque from a piggyback or stand alone ecu? Cheers for input fellas

The only person I know who can tune the stock ecu is Soichi here in Auckland. I doubt there is anyone in Australia. You will need a Greddy E-manage or HKS F-Con to piggyback onto your stock ecu.

Yep no one in aussieland can flash tune the stock ecu.

Emanage and goto 'dvs jez' on the coast as he has done a few stags.

Or buy my nismo ecu which is a plug and play. But would still recommend an emanage to run with it also.

Or wait a month or so and see how my car goes with the adaptronic stand alone ECU. Which will also be getting tuned by Jez.

Looking forward to seeing these results.

if you haven't done so already.........just open up the airbox replace filter with BMC or the like, fit phenolic intake spacer and replace dump pipe and fit 3" exhaust and you'll get the low and midrange torque and a fair few more killa wasp's and HDi FMIC wouldn't go astray......

a tune can make a fair bit of improvement (mine got an extra 28Kw from a tune but that's top end) but no point unless you've done some ground work.

no point in wasting time on a stock ECU and the only reason to get a impul or nismo is for the speed restriction removal and maybe the throttle map but still might aswell just go straight for the emanage, f-con or the adaptronic......

Yeah I've fitted a k&n panel filter turbo back 3" exhaust next is the fmic and trying to chase down a runner spacer but might be out of luck on that as they don't seem to be around any more.

So Jez can dyno tune the stock ecu? As that's basically what I'm after once all is fitted.

No body in Australia can tune the stock ecu. Full stop end of story.

I have NFI about the guy in NZ, as I don't think we have seen any results posted anywhere about it (in my memory anyway).

There are companies in japan who have done it, but they don't want to play, and there are only a couple. The Russians haven't figured it out either.

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
