Hello,

Can some one please inform me a bit more about how these VX-ROM's work and what to expect from them. They do one for the VQ25DET, as well as some sort of shift kit for the transmission.

Would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like an exchange rechipped ECU. It will get rid of the 180k speed limit and remap your mixture and timing. Unless they will tailor make one for your car's stage of development (exhaust? Intercooler? bigger turbo, injectors etc) then it may not be all that great. If they do tailor make it then it will not be ideal if you further upgrade your car. If you are interested in this approach read below Tangles "remap ECU" thread. He has a "local" person (Toshi) to do the work who can probably make adjustments etc cheaper than Mines.

I have a MiNes ECU in my series 2 stagea. It removes the speed limiter(havent tested though), changes rev limit to 7000rpm, advances timing, removes 'half' boost mode. between 8-9psi by 3000rpm. Not sure what else, becuase it came with the car not sure how different it would be compared to standard.

But you can tell them the mods to your car and they'll remape the ECU to that spec. I should really email them and ask what is done to my ecu......

send an email to sau member Toshi

provide a picture of the internals of your ecu

with all chip numbers and ecu numbers etc

provide a list of all mods, and see what he can do for you!

:laugh:

Toshi has my vote, 1000 times

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
