Hi everybody.

I've just recently purchased my R31 GTS-R

that has an RB25DET conversion.

Last night with Dr_drift and Meggala we establised it has a series 2 RB25.

ALSO... now this is the bonus part.

The ECU was just sitting on the floor behind the carpet and a few screws were missing.

So we HAD to have a look and one opened up we saw that the ECU had a nice daughter board with a chip... :eek:

A fully programmable chip that is.

Right down the the valve timing.

How cool is that. :Party:

No $1,500+ APEXI Power FC for me to tune the ECU and go fast :burnout:

No... this isn't the R32 chipped...

i was gonna let dr_drift play with that on mine for some ground work but there's more better things now.

It's a 33 ECU with a daughter board and on that board are several chips.

This car was a race/drfit car in Japan and has many mods.

As for markings on the chip or nothing... there are none. It's a generic sort of chip with the maps bunrt on it.

It looks like someone has done it in their bedroom sorta of thing... not something brought off a shelf that's for sure.

Maybe that's why it goes so hard

:D

series 2 RB25DET

Massive STOCK frount mount

I think it has a T04E.. them came with them stock so i'm assuming it's what on there. Hits boost about 4,000rpm.

turbo extractors... STOCK

stainless steel exhaust manifold... again Stock!

It's got coils overs all round. Cusco is what's on there (i've got spare 500 pound springs as opposed to the 250/200 that are in there now)

5 Stud converstion -- > R32 GTR brakes

shortend shifter

R32 Forged GTR Rims

Monster heavy clutch.

260 km/h IMPUL dash

of course the ECU is modded

stainless steel exhaust manifold and turbo extracts r the same thing. And it cant be a massive stock fmic as the stock rb25det cooler is anything but massive or front mount! :D

There are extractors coming off the block going into the turbo.

And then off the ass end of the turbo.. the exhaust manifold is stainless steel.

so that is different is it not ?

or wan't i clear ??

And the stock front mount for a GTS-R is huge. TRUST ME. i know lot's about the R31 imports.

If you see the car i can explain it.

The GTS-R's were brought out (only 800) for the group A racing.

That's why it has lot's of good stock parts.

off the block to the turbo is called the exhaust manifold and from the back of the turbo is called the dump pipe!

:D

Yep!

I'll be there for sure.

it has no extra boost so i guess it's running around the 9psi mark with the big cooler and exhaust...

i'm being a bit conservative but i think i should get at least 180.

Dr_drift is more towards the 200+ though.

we shall see on the day though :P

Might even do some tuning now the ECU has been found to be chipped

R31Nizmoid - Cool, if Dr-Drift can work out how to re-map the R33 ones it'd be great. But I think the write once 84 pin chips are about $70, and the re-writables are about $250 or so !!!

Unless your ECU daughterboard got rid of the 84 pin chip all together and uses a cheaper chip - now that would be cool..

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
