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..

    • Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?
    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
    • You have no idea how many goddamn boxes I received these past three months haha Most have been put to use by now though, luckily
    • Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
