I will reprogram a 300ZX ECU for my RB25DET / Silvia, cause I can't find a R33 one(I live in Canada), and cause I can't reprogram R33.

So my question is, what are the stock timing map like?

I guess it will be very close to RB20DET , does it make sense?

I already got the RB20DET...but I would prefer to make sure that they are like RB25DET.

Also, does anybody as the firing order for RB25DET ? (I have to compare with a 300ZX engine..if there are not the same, I will switch injector and coil pack wiring.

There is an R33 Ecu for sell on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...&category=31250

Try getting 95 model as they have better fuel maps. I got 204 rwKw with stock 95 model ECU and stock turbo.

Lippo: Yes, it will probably go better with a 95 model ECU

S14Drift: The Daughterboards are not easily available and expensive. Badbiki doesn't have one, they are more complicated. You can get a new Hitachi H8-534 CPU from www.grid.co.jp and program it with new maps but it's like $300 windowed (reprogrammable) CPU and that's not all you need.

Sorry but I don't read japanese....

I have an eprom programmer, eprom eraser...and all that, I have been tuning SR20DET in Montreal(Canada) for almost a year now...

I can get a 300ZX ECU for less than 100 Aus...and then reprogram it... so paying 100$ for something I can't retune doesn't make sense to me.

Did the R32 RB20DET had the VTC too ? if so I can probably buy on of these (cause the have eprom on board) and tune that?

I would prefer a RB ECU for only one reason, they have 2 knock sensor input...and the 300 ZX only has 1....

S14Drift:Try this if you can't read Japanese, it will give you a rough English translation: http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/u...ml%2F28_07.html

The Rb20DET don't have VCT. That is the biggest problem in adapting Rb20DET ECU to RB25DET engine. Some people have done it by adding an additional board with a specially programmed PIC microcontroller and a transistor to control VCT.

Would you be able get me one of those 300ZX ECUs for less than $100 AUD?

The best place is Ebay.com

There is a lot of these ECU for sale (at least 3 to 5 per week), some went for 38 $ US, and the last one I missed went for 43$ US...

If people don't want to ship it to Australia, I could have it ship here in Canada, then ship it back to you :)

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
