Hi All

Does anyone know where and how much I can get an ECU for please?

I took my V35 to get the pinging resolved only to find it has an aftermarket IMPUL chip glued in place. The tuner can't get it out and the tune is a schocker apparently.

Any ideas please?

cheers

Geoff

You can call Nissan, anywhere in Sydney and tell them your model car etc. They'll be able to contact Nissan Japan and get an ECU OEM Price for you - won't be cheap though.

It may be in your best interests to look for a better aftermarket one - maybe a HKS if they offer, or re-tune your current.

Can the tuner not reprogram the current tuning??? :ermm:

Does the current ECU setup still work for things like cold start and the like? Or is everything FUBAR?

If so, what you could do is add another piggyback that has the option of a full ECU cutout (like the Haltech or UTEC).

When warming up the car leave the factory/Impul setup, but as soon as you're warmed up flick the switch and remove the OEM/Impul setup from having control.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
