ECU upgrade.. let's stop talking and do something !! long
there has been lot's of talk about this. well let's stop talking. i have a 1997 se auto max. i want SOMEONE to hack my ECU. i want to adjust shift points... redline....timing... and all of the wonderful things that the MAGIC box controls. i have a nissan service manual and i am pretty good at wiring diagrams and skizo's.( schematics) i understand relays, resistors, and diodes. i am not a very smart man. myself and NISMO2020 and SPRAYIN70 did a little ecu work today and it was not that hard. i can look in my wiring diagram and see where the TCU ( tranny control unit) IS AND I CAN SEE WHERE THE 1 & 0'S OF computer talk is. so why can't companies do something about this. STILLIN i am calling you out. why don't you have one? CATTMAN i am calling you out. you have a TCU for a 96... why not a 97 0r 99? import shops in atlanta where i live look at me like a just asked them to kill their parents when i ask them if they can get into my ecu. maybe i am greedy, maybe i am selfish , so what. i am not gonna say what honda/acura/NEON, etc has , i do not care. I DO not have one. so STILLEN/CATTMAN fire up the sweat shop and work it out. sorry about the rant, i am just tired of having to sit aorund with other max owners and try and slove the what mod can i do next, other than a supercharger mod. again sorry for the long post but this is how i feel.
flame me if you want , but don't post garbage, get your own thread. i want to see if stillen or cattman want to address this. maybe they have, if so, then address me. tell me what your doing or not gonna do

Ok - I've explained this too many times already in other threads. If you guys REALLY want the things you say you want - it can be done. Why not spend the money, get it done and tell everyone the results?
GET THE UNICHIP/PROGRAM FROM RACERSGROUP.COM http://www.racersgroup.com/theprogram_unichip.html
THEY'LL TELL YOU IF THEY HAVE ANY TUNERS NEAR YOU
http://www.racersgroup.com/dealerlisting.html
TAKE YOUR CAR AND THE UNICHIP TO THE TUNER
THE TUNER CAN ADJUST TIMING,SHIFTPOINTS,FUELCUT, ETC.
PROVIDE THE ORG WITH THE RESULTS - RATHER THAN SOME SEAT OF THE PANTS B.S.

ok why are you yelling?
did you type in all caps to yell or for no reason? what if i have not seen your uni-chip post before? i have not and i spend way to much time here. the reason i made this post was to gain info. i just called OPM Motor Sports in cumming GA and DFE Motor sports(which is now Random Tech.) in loganville ga and they both said that they did not have any applications for a nissan maxima. maybe where you are they do, but the shops where i live do not. so i won't say much , but i will say this, if you know of an application for a maxima, why not do it yourself and tell everyone else about it? i am not trying to start some dumb thing between you and i. i am honestly trying to see what is availible. again if you know info about a company that has one for a maxima, please give it to me so i can try and work this out. thank you for your info and maybe people like you and i can work together and slove this unknown issue.

I decided not to do it mainly because there wasn't one of their tuners near me, because I haven't finished modding my car and only want to do it once, and because I'm not willing right now to spend the $$$. I'm pretty sure I know of someone who can do the tuning for me once I'm ready to do it (and, of course, to spend the money).

They said that one of the tuners they are associated with would have to have the car and do the actual tuning using the the dyno. That means the tuner has to figure out what is optimal for your vehicle - i.e. how much fuel, at what points, etc and program the unichip with those parameters. In other words, manually remap. That is the expensive part.
