Thats right...Mr Nagata-san (Smoky) from Top Secret Japan

will be coming to Sydney, Australia to tune all NA and turbo cars using aftermarket

computers, he specialises in Apex'i PowerFC and HKS Fcons.

the more people organised the cheaper it will work out for us all...I will be bringing him here to tune my car, so thought I would offer it out there to people

who are also in the market for a tune.

A bit about Smoky, he drives and owns the big gold Supra and known for causing a media frenzy a few years back for clocking 340km/h through the M1 expressway in England.

He is tuned alot of very hi-performance and modified vechiles and travel's offen tuning cars all around the globe. This will be his first time to Australia to tune cars so we need to make him and his crew welcome.

Whether or not your car is making 100kw to 500kw he will be able to acheive the maximam performance and power curves to suit your driving style, whether that be drift,drag,circuit, touge or a everyday commuter.

I am organising interest in the once in a long time opportunity specially for the Skylines Australia club.

What I will be organising is transport for the Top Secret Crew, accommodation, airfairs and access to a 4wd dyno. They in return will be bringing their knowledge, skill and software to tune our cars.

please feel free to PM me for any more details.

Price will be depending on amount of time taken x number of cars and how modified the vechile is. (I am hoping to organise this for 2nd or 3rd week in May)

from past experiences will be cheaper than getting it tuned by workshops around Sydney.

I will be taking numbers and a deposit for those people interested.

      I have a VALCON if anyone wants it, I have no idea why you'd want to have VVT specifically broken out of the ECU as opposed to running it off the FCON/whatever standalone you have.

      Hi Yes we're a bit optimistic we might get something out of sealing up the two pipes of the external wastegate and reactivating the stock one. I believe the orginal stock wastegate was tack welded shut. It doesn't budge and visually looks closed and sealed. The car has noticeably more lag so it could be at least part of the problem, maybe all. It's definately one of the key changes made since last tune. And it's one that's more difficult to fully understand and measure, not like for instance timing or cylinder compression.  Thanks for that feedback, we'll let you know how this progresses. Fingers crossed.   Regards Rob

      Well, I was going to say, "Is the wastegate set up so that it is not leaking?" That's actually a different thing to what you're asking about. In theory, if you have allowed the two halves of the manifold to commmunicate (more than the stock manifold does - which is at least a little bit) then the negative effect should be apparent in delayed spool, not in outrigth power. OK, maybe just maybe, a badly set up twin scroll wastegate "crosstalk" might kill the top end, although it's hard to see how. What is happening with the original wastegate in the turbo? is it sealed off properly. If it's left flapping in the breeze, it will f**k everything up. If it is still there, and can be returned to service, I'd be capping off the external (presuming the two halves can and will be isolated from each other after doing so) and have a go with just the stock wastegate. I have an internal wastegate in my highflowed rear housing. The bigger opening and flapper should be fine to >250 rwkW. So there's not exactly a pressing reason to have the external. Done right, an external will give better results. Done wrong, it might just be possible to have worse results. Report back!
