But getting a decent ECU, knowing how it (and your car) works to me is really a minimum requirement. I couldn't go back nor could I ever be happy not knowing, or recommending anything less. Anything less is "probably ok, maybe"

If only you had of applied the same to the rest of the parts! :P

My haltech does all sorts of terrible things, like start first time everytime, drives better then it ever has, gets great fuel economy even on e85, makes good power reliably and has rock solid ignition timing due to the ability to run a crank trigger

Yep what a shit ecu

Brett this point is invalid because any other ECU can do this just fine, it's dependent on the tuner entirely. This is just confirmation bias.

You've missed the point totally here mate. Second hand FC = $700 with heckers hand controller Nismo AFM's = $700 Thats $1400, more if you want to buy the ECU new. Yes it will do the job. However,

^^ This. I'm not saying Haltech is shit, I'm not saying Nistune is shit, I'm not saying PFC is better than all of those combined. I'm saying there is nothing wrong with all of those options provided y

Is the Power FC CAN Bus compatible?

I'm going to guess no. Not everyone has a need for CAN Bus compatibility but it's a deal breaker for me.

I dont think the Autronics do CAN easily, but race technology have some dashes that plug straight in no wakkas. I was pretty pleased with that.

As nice as CAN is its also just one more way haltech and motec can add additional zeros to your invoice.

For a budget No Frills ECU, Adaptronic can integrate to a variety of dashes out there via the serial port.

I kind of have my eyes set on the Dash2 one day, but after a few extra important things such as a cage and fixed bucket seat.

True and it kind of locks you into that one thing but gosh damn if I wasn't happy to have my wideband setup and ready to go in about two actual minutes with no wiring. With the amount of work that goes into cars, seeing something literally plug and play and just work was pretty damn sweet for the extra $15 it cost :P

      Left & Right Window Regulators for 2013 Skyline V36 Coupe

      By Therry · Posted

      Both windows operate normally while the engine is running but start to sag as soon as I switch off.  Does anyone know of reasonably priced replacements or other brands that will fit?

      Actually PowerFC is probably the easiest to get basic data from, it comes with a hand controller and display so you don't need to remember to pack a laptop every time you drive. It also has a PC based viewing/logging option if required. Nissan used consult on these because back in the mid 80s, ODB was just a glint in a standard's body's eyes.  They switched to OBD shape around 2000 (my 2001 Cima had OBD shaped but not OBD compliant port) With the standard ECU there is a cable and software available to give basic data too, I think it is called Nissan Data Scan or s

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Given by the sheer number of questions about offset, absolutely not. If you had the information formatted this way: Space from R34 GTT hub to outer arch = 100mm Space from R34 GTT inner hub to nearest suspension arm = 90mm. (making this up) Buying a wheel that was advertised as Enkei RPZ5 Diameter 18in Width 9 Distance to arch = 84mm Distance to suspension arm = 76mm 100% of people would know instantly if it fits. They would absolutely also know instantly how close it fits too, and no questions would need to be asked. You would know you would have 16mm from the guard and 14mm from the suspension arm.

      Ah ok, for example for the apexi ecu I heard that it's pretty limited with the information it can give you. Also not sure why Nissan used the consult port over the obd2, what the idea there was.

      Diagnosing with and without is mostly the same. You need to know, as Duncan asked, and what conditions. Car hot, cold, idling, driving, if while driving what rpms, is when you're varying, or is it when held constant.   From there it's understanding what can be causing it. Starting with pretending all of the sensors are correct. Which means if it's going rich, why would it be thinking more air is going in than it is, and under what conditions. So things like if only when under boost, it could be be a loose intake piping joint. It's just understanding the system, and understanding when/how the problem occurs, and then if it's only occuring in specific scenarios, what can be causing it.   ECU specifically, if it's aftermarket, it'll have software you can use, for the Skylines on factory ECU, there is Nissan Consult you can use. Most ECUs have a way to get data from them.
