Hello,

I'm a UK tuner over in Melbourne currently, it's been drawn to my attention through various people that EcuTEK doesn't have a great name over here and having done some reading online it's my opinion that a large portion of the issues come from the tuners and also the way that EcuTEK is sold over here. I've personally tuned using EcuTEK, Cobb and Syvecs for one of the UK's leading GTR specialists and feel that EcuTEK is un-fairly handled over here.

So what you ask..

I'll check your tune for FREE.

You will likely know that I cannot work with your existing tune but I can assess your datalogs. I won't throw a load of technical words at you but will show you on the data where you tune could be better. Now if you're Melbourne based I can do this in person, if you're further afield and have an EcuTEK lead then I'm happy to look at your datalogs via email. For this to be FREE all I need from you is to see an invoice/receipt saying that you've paid for an EcuTEK tune from a EcuTEK tuner/agent.

For clarity, I also tune using Cobb and there's one statement that I feel needs to be made clearly.

Cobb/EcuTEK can BOTH make a safe, enjoyable, powerful map - it's all down to the tuner.

Anyone who tells you different has a vested interest in one way or the other.

In my opinion, I prefer EcuTEK as a platform - particularly for cars that are pushing past the boundaries of the stock MAFs where you can utilise the hybrid-speed density to utilise the MAF for cruise/drivability and SD for higher loads. I like that Cobb has access to fault codes etc, but if your car is tuned right you'll never need to access them :cool:

There are other points, but this isn't about selling EcuTEK - more about using my time in Australia wisely :) I'm here until late April...

Any comments are welcome, but make them factual based on YOUR experience with EcuTEK

Feel free to contact me on here or via my new for 2016 Facebook profile HERE

The R35 GTR owners dont use this forum much Dan, if i knew i would get you over to Sydney instead - more of us run Ecutek here than in Melbourne but you will find the majority run Cobb as that is what most local tuners are comfy with

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏

      Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.
