Ecu

Hey guys,

I'm looking for opinions.

I've been looking for a Wolf 3d for my '32, but have given up... What I want is a second hand ecu to put in - for less than a grand (then tuning etc)

I'm now moving to either get a 32 gtr power fc and re-wire it. Is this hard? Is it worth it?

There also a couple of microtechs around ltx12/lt12 ... these seems rather universal (32/33).

Any suggestions? I just can't make the decision! lol!

Or anything I havn't thought of? Or does anyone have anything to sell to me?

The universal one just can be wired up with no probs.

Probably best to give Top Racing a call if your unsure about anything before buying, their tuner knows Wolfs better than anyone (including the manufacturer)

how much power do you want why not try something like a haltech interceptor or just a good old safc2 the haltech would be fine unless you are wanting to run some crazy figures? haltech i was quoted at 1200 i think fitted and tuned

Yeah considered a remap - and I'm already running a SAFC2. I had my car for sale a couple of wks ago but now I'm just gonna keep building it up. Just bought a new turbo for it - nothing expensive, but thought I'd also take this oppurtunity to upgrade ecu as well. I'm looking at the two microtechs on the sale section at the moment - an lt12 and ltx12. Both about the same price - I'm getting some info directly from the guys at microtech regarding the difference.

So... looks like unless anyones got any further advice - its a microtech :(

Weak...

They don't make boards for the RB25NEO...

* We are not planning at this stage to work on the ECR33/34 RB25DET due to the fact you need to replace the CPU to install the board and it is a whole new project for us. I have investigated this but don't have the time currently to pursue this one. Note: You can use an R32 RB20 ECU (however no VCT control available) or Z32 VG30 ECU with minor wiring mods when plugged into a RB25 loom.

Not perfect, but definitely worth looking into...

can get brand new gt-r 32/33 power fc's for bout a grand from greenline, and the guys down at x-speed would be able to get it working on your 20, they can make them work on 25's and the 25/20 ecu's are pretty much identical in wiring so it shouldn't be a hassle..

    • Agreed with the rest. Also at least based on my own research, there are no readily available stock or close-to-stock RB20Neo maps that you could download and use as a base were you to buy a complete standalone ECU, and the regular 20DET maps don't really work well so you'd need to take it to a tuner if you have no experience. I installed an AEM V2 on my 20Neo+T and had lots of headaches until I got it to run and idle properly but I've yet to remap it fully. You have to start building up your timing and fuel maps entirely from the ground up; even the ones for a 25 didn't work at all.
    • Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.
    • That's some good input mate. Nice.
    • So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
