Ok well thats good and bad news :( Good news its actually chipped bas news its not nistune :(

So how am I able to tune this ecu? I was going to buy a consult cable but now it looks like my ecu is not easily tuneable

Does anyone know who chipped my ecu? like what brand or whatever? cheers for all your help

No it doesn't have a nistune. I has been chipped though... Its got a socket with UV eraseable EPROM

Guys it was my bad about the information provided to the workshop mentioned in this thread with regards to compatibility since I mixed up the model numbers. Usually I refer to the Nissan vehicle desig

yeah ive seen many cases where engine protection has stopped or at lest reduced damage to engines.. if your paying top dollar for an ecu youve probably got alot of cash sunk into your engine too.. it

the same way any other chip is done, find someone with a chip eraser etc, its crap though takes ages to get any real changes, just fork out for a nistune, about $300 installed usually and maybe 2-800 for a tune depending how many mods, if its basically stock they prob have a good base map and only need 30mins touching it up.

Question.

Will a map burnt to the Nistuned ecu be wiped if you disconnect the battery terminals (i.e. the method for resetting the factory ecu)?

No, just like the factory one it will simply revert to the programmed maps, deleting any self adjustment the ECU had made to fuel and ignition maps.

The factory ecu doesn't really learn much, it has a knock map and a normal map, all you really reset is the ecu flags which if accurate will be restored on reset anyway.

So no it doesn't reset anything more than it currently does.

I received my nistune stuff last week :)

When you order it they ask for ur ecu number on the casing, Now is this to put a stock standard base tune on the chip?

So if I install it, would the car drive/idle like the stock ecu ? Is this fine for the car?

Or is driving around with the nistune chip in the car before it gets tuned a big no no?

They ask for ecu number incase you have an ECU they haven't seen before or can't use (R33 GTR ECU for example), the stock map is pre-loaded (100% the same as the factory map) and will be exactly like driving with an unmodified stock ECU.

Be like you hadn't done anything to it, they will load a stock map on for you, if it was the wrong map or untuned there is a high likely hood it wouldn't even idle so you couldn't do much damage.

Matt, I think one our WA guys has been given a bum steer.. I know you do board for auto series 2 Stageas and I was fairly certain you do board for manual series 2 Stageas (RS4S) however he received this reply..

Hi Mike,

Thanks for contacting ***.

The Nissan Stagea RS4S Series 2 with manual transmission has an ECU which is currently not supported by NIStune Software.

Feel free to contact *** should you have any further questions.

Pretty sure he has a 0V801 ECU, can you please confirm? Would have sent you an email but I'm at work :P

The guy has been misled. MT SII RS4S is supported by Nistune for more than 3 years now.

I'm using exactly 0V801 ECU with nistune and have a mate here who's using Type 4 board programmed with 0V801 image in his AT ECU. Neo ECUs are actually interchangable - I was running RWD R34 ECU (AA500) with my Stagea motor for two months with no problems at all.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
