Stock would be useless with those mods you got... :banana:

But i guess just to check everything running first , you could use stock. Or you can just go full aftermarket with a Haltech or Microtech.

Cant see why you cant use a power fc if your loom is all fine.

Im just wondering, are you the same girl that sold me your SAFCII... did we ever meet ?? like at mt ommaney ?

No worries Kate.

The best idea for Kate would be to get the stock ECU running for a while and if she does find a powerfc get the powerfc in there from a tuner who knows his shit.

P.S. All RB25DET powerfc's are the same. Neo's are a different story. And the looms change from model to model, obviously.

Sam aka Dr Drift does standard computer remaps for rb25's now.

what i will be going, bit more expensive then a standard re-map as a new motherboard get put in, but still good pricing as far as i am concerned, and can do everything a PFC can do cept you dont have a hand controlller.

i'd suggest asking him, i believe he is coming up in a number of months.

so i find out this morning its a NEO engine

WTF am i supposed to effing do now???

i soo give up :happy: looks like i wont be out friday night :D

So you've got the better R34 Version of the RB25DET!!!! - Get an ER34 Power FC I guess....

Seeing its a drift car, you'll only need to run legacy items to get the car going...therefore the ER34 (R34 PFC should do the trick)????

Still....hard to get a second hand PFC for R34...well...cheap that is...

Just to clear some things up to prevent you buying the wrong ecu

You mentioned you are using a stagea rb25det. There is a few different types. They all use R34 ecu plugs

Series 1 stagea uses a series 2 r33 rb25det and there is 3 different factory ecu's which are wired up different. Even thou they are R33 motor's the ecu plug is a R34 rb25det. Series 1 stagea's use r34 power Fc due to the plug style, but require wiring mods, depending on which model ecu you have

Series 2 stagea uses a R34 rb25det neo motor and r34 ecu plug and a r34 power fc will plug straight in and work in a stagea, your car being r32 will probably need some wiring mods. Mainly power feeds etc.

Series 2 stagea came in AWD and RWD versions with the r34 rb25det neo motor. The RWD has the traction control throtle body and the AWD version does not. This will help you determine which series 2 stagea neo motor you have.

Have a search thru the stagea section as there is few power Fc threads with the issues encounted.

Just had a look at profile and the pic's of the Rb25det.

That engine is NOT a Neo. It appears to be a r33 version.

Did it come with a AWD sump?

It did but they replaced it with the R33 sump and oil pump.

    • Drilled the rubber out on a slow speed and it didn't catch much at all. Probably only half a dozen holes was enough to shred the rubber and it dropped off easily leaving the inner sleeve behind. Will tackle that later
    • 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
