normally carry some changeovers in stock, but just waiting on new batch, should be here any day. Can also modify your actual ecu if preferred but takes a few days as I don''t have the smd work station yet. Normally looking around 2-3 hours drive in drive out for thorough tune with basic mods, obviously cam timing etc can take longer...

Sorry to bring up and old thread, but I was wondering if you are putting a z32 ecu into an rb25 and u get the 16 bit version you need a daughterboard that I know and then would u need two chips in order to run the tune? Cause thats what I have to do caus eI got the z32 ecu that is 16 bit so they told me I need two chips in oder to run it.

You should be able to use a 16 bit Z32 daughterboard to run an RB25 still since the ECU pinouts are the same, Nissan upgraded to a different processor (probably because of the Motorola/Hitachi lawsuit stopped them using the HD6303 MCU midway through production of Z32)

I would lean towards the 8 bit Z32 because more VVT control parameters have been defined if you wish to tune those. However I went through the 16 bit Z32 ROM last month and identified some more parameters to adjust since a few owners run nistune with these

hey im in the middle of doing the rb20 ecu with a rb25 tune chip on a rb25 but ive connected the computer and the car runs fine but no tacho just wondering if you need to change the tacho wiring on the ecu from pin 7 to pin 5 to suit the rb20 ecu

Maybe not that cheap @ approx $2000. :laugh:

should be half that, as of late have been doing the Z32 remps for $800 drive in drive out if you supply the z32 ecu ( or $950 if i supply it, as they are $150 at any wreckers)

there quite a bit of mis-information about exactly what needs dong but it is actually very simple and only requires simple pin swaps and the addition of a 02 sensor wire.

IIRC I was thinking that that the 2K would include wideband etc etc.

Sure only requires a few pin swaps easy as.

EXCEPT the fuel temp sensor which needs a resistor wired to chassis ground. If this isn't done you get rich idle afr's and code 42.

Oh and cut wire at pin 33 or your exhaust temp light will come on with your air con.

Cheers.

Guys I'm a little lost here , are you saying that a modded R33 GTS25T computer can be made programmable and tuned via the Consult port just like any after market computer ?

I was under the impression that ROM chips had to be burnt and erased and reburnt time after time .

If all is now good is the software available for anyone to use ?

Sure there are daughterboards out there that allow you to use nistune boards in the r33 ecu it's just that they're a liitle exy.

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
