Nistune Forums

I did another SR this week and besides the extra fuel I hardly changed the timing and it still made really good power (310rwkw+ on Mainline dyno). It didn't make any more if I added timing so I left it at that. He did a track day yesterday and all went well. About the only problem was that it was t...

I'm not sure it's the right explanation. Consult works in a master-slave model (request --> answer), and BT should do the same as you mentioned above, so it should match ... but it doesn't in reality It's not so simple. I think there're 3 many reasons: _as any air link, BT induces latencies (to go ...

Hi Pete, I've seen that retarded timing problem, many digital timing lights get fouled up with the trigger edge. I have used a conventional plug lead for many years and check it right at the spark plug. You've also probably noticed when tuning and you've added spark that boost often drops off [even ...

The problem that causes the latency is related to the way Bluetooth and Nistune operate. Think about this... Bluetooth modules run by Host sends data -> slave Slave sends data -> host When communications are in operation, the bluetooth module can't transmit and receive at the same time, and unfortun...

Yes, the 24U00 will be included in the release. It's already coded. The biggest delay has been a batch of counterfeit logic chips. I've taken it up with the supplier and they were going to test/inspect and replace the chips. That was many weeks ago and they have stopped replying to my recent email d...

I've formulated a solution for the Bluetooth issues I have been experiencing.

I'm also considering adding Bluetooth variants to my Type6 boards too.

See here for updated pictures & information http://forum.nistune.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2708&p=20323#p20323 There is a high speed consult option available with the current V1.0 software which boasts over 25% faster map tracing. At this time I have NOT confirmed if this will cause issues...

Here's a quick update on the Type 6's. Unfortunately, there's a slight 'technical' delay on the public release. My prototype's are tried and tested, unfortunately it appears I've been sold a batch of dud/counterfeit logic devices for my production run. All R33 RB25's will be supported straight away ...

Perhaps I should have been clearer with the pricing. A Type6 board comes in at $470 inc GST Fitting would be $110 inc GST Post's the same, $20 in Oz, other destinations are slightly higher depending on options. It's still cheaper and better than any aftermarket ECU, which costs twice as much and sti...

EEPROM version of the Type6 was considered but 1) Bare PCB would cost more to make as it is bigger in size. 2) You loose advantages of realtime consult tuning, unless using an Ostrich(extra cost if you don't have one) 3) 28 pin eprom or flash chip is more expensive to buy, more tools needed to burn ...

My Type6 boards do exactly that, but allow realtime tuning using Nistune's awesome front end. As a matter of fact, my type6's started out life as a rom board. I considered seling a rom board, but you need emulators, cabling and the knowledge to tune them correctly. By using Nistune, the job is faste...

Just bought it... have to try and get it working with the blusult interface now (if possible) I can modify the configuration for very high data transfer rates, this may fix the latency problems at 9600baud . I'm looking at doing a firmware rewrite for the Type6 to increase the data transfer speed a...

It should work fine, do you have a rom image that I can patch to use the board? Also If it has a PLCC socket it will work, but may require minor mods if it was an 80pin processor as my transition adapter (80pin QFP-84pin) relocates the crystal for improved reliability.. Do you have a picture of the ...

great idea!

Will do. Stu

I've just finished the boards, adapters and have tested my ROM board version on a WC34 series ECU fully working And boy am I happy ! It all works according to plan, I'll do some testing in a vehicle at some time over the next several days. I need to feed some sensor data into the ECU to check that i...
