Well one point, ECUs that dont use a AFM like a microtech etc give you more accesible power without going to the limit of the AFM,

I have tho got mate using a microtech on his RB20 and still has the AFM pluged in... lol.

...also usually unless you shell out for bigger afms, they end up being a restriction.

Ive always been curious to the difference it makes between AFM based ecus & non

What ecu can your tuners tune??

Its pointless us saying x ecu is better if your tuner cannot tune it

Ive always had microtechs in my cars and have had not one issue with them - i think they are fantastic and my tuner specialises in them so he gets it right every time, first time

Talk to your tuner dude.

See what he wants to use, and go from there if it fits into your budget.

We see it all the time here.

Some people get great results, and other people get... well... pretty average results. And a fair portion of the time it comes down to the tuner/tune on the car :(

Go with what they reccomend and you'll attain the best result you can

    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
