Hi everyone,

Well the modificaitons are about to begin to my GTST4. I've prepared the shopping list and modification list... Here it is...

GTR 440 cc injectors

040 pump

Malpassi 1:1 fuel pressure reg (I've already got this from my other car)

top mount manifold

GT2871 turbo 0.86/0.7

600x300x76 front mount

Custom plenum with factory throttle body

Custom alloy plumbing

Splitfire coils

Wolf ECU V4 plus

My goal is 220-240kw atw.

Now the reason I wasn to run the wolf is that I know this ecu inside out, get a really good result with the tune and wire in the ecu with no problems at all.

So now the questions...

Has anyone here ever wired in an aftermarket ECU in parallel to the factory ECU before?

The reason I want to do this is that the factory ECU is responsible for controlling the HICAS, AWD and ABS. I want to keep these features.

So I figured if I install the wolf temp sensors, and parallel wire the trigger sensor and throttle position sensors, and then hijack the injector driver and ignition signals I'd have a workable solution.

I'd did discover the other day when checking my air cleaner the affect of leaving the MAF sensor unplugged from the stock ecu (rich and 2500 rev limit). Would this be ok to leave unplugged fromt he stock ecu if i'm using the WOLF ecu for fuel/igniton?

Is there anything else i've overlooked here?

Any other thoughts or suggestions for my project?

Cheers!

Ian

I have wired in a Wolf when I fitted the RB25DET. I lost AWD, amongst other things. Found out later that I should have used the GT-R plug'n'play version.

Alternatively, Wolf have a "black-box" add-on that willl feed TPS to the ATTESSA ECU.

But I still don't have A/C!

AC is easy to fix... I worked this out for a s13 i wired about a month ago. found the output wire for the climate control that triggers the aircon compressor, hooked that thru the wolf input, and then had the wolf output control a relay that fired the compressor.

The wolf can then turn off the compressor above 4500 rpm and 6lb boost. works a treat!

As for loosing AWD, well you could wire it to a switch probably and switch it on and off selectively.. but it wouldn't work as well as the ecu controlled option. Thus why i want to wire in the wolf in parallel.

    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
