Gtr R32 Ecu And Controls

[exXU1]

OK,

the engine control unit can be replaced by an aftermarket PFC, Motec, haltec or the likes!

So these manage the engine and AC etc.

I have no climate control or AC.

No hicas either.

Keeping attessa.

So , will the EMS unit simply look after the engine whilst there must be a sepperate box to control the lighting , indicators and the attessa and dash cluster- tacho etc ??

As you can see i am unclear as to what controlls what .

your input is appreciated.

Lights, indicators are controlled by their own switches (no "ECU", so to speak).

I'm not sure which way it works, but there is some reliance between ECU and tacho.

The only thing I can say for sure is that the ATTESSA ECU needs an input from the TPS, via the main ECU.

Thanks for your input, this is starting to clarify a little.

So if one uses an aftermarket ecu , how does one link the attessa to that , TPS throttle positioning switch ?

Not sure about this association?

If the replacement ECU you install is a plug'n'play, then it should be OK.

If you use a full re-wire unit, then it requires an aftermarket "black box" to get ATTESSA to work. I had to do this when I installed a WOLF in my GTS4 - I used a full re-wire (later found I could have used a GT-R plug'n'play) - so needed the Wolf black box to get ATTESSA back.
