Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Mike

Mike,

I have a english translated series 2 stagea pin out diagram if that will help. Note, it is not the r34 that floats around on the forums. I will have email to you as it is against forum rules to post up here. You may already know this, but apparently there is 3 different series 1 ecu's with different pin outs.

Mike - good to see some actual results of testing done on this

Darrin if you can send it my way also enquiries[at]nistune.com also it would be appreciated as I would be interested in the differences between the wiring. i've wired up for ER34 on the bench for basic inputs but can test other inputs/outputs when i get free time. I've got on the list to probe the boost solenoid output to see how that gets controlled by the ECU

I have a series 2 stagea. Was a auto, but I converted to a manual. I was running a r34 power Fc for a while with the only issue, which is the same as the factory manual stagea's, the engine check light comes on due to the AWD stagea Rb25 does not have traction control. It is a simple fix, but not too important.

So I see no reason the Nistune ecu should not work in my case.

I plan to get a Nistune board soon as I no longer have the power Fc fitted.

guys be careful not to confuse the two types of ECU.... you wouldnt want to be trying to rewire in a Z32/R32 ECU with the different (blue) connector

why wouldn't this work. if you could manage to get/make a plug adapter, to go from blue type to grey type. or just cut the old plug off and join the blue type on, it wouldn't be that big of a deal would it?

Mike - Thanks for the offer. Series2 are confirmed working no problems with Type 4 board however Series1 we just cant do. Its similar to the Hitachi R33 RB25 computer with no easy provision for external daughterboard (so we recommend Z32 ECU with rewire since its more cost effective)

QWK32- If you wire in a Z32/R32 ECU you wont have any transmission or boost control in these ECUs for the Stagea like the WC34 ECUs have

so... rumour has it... Z32 Computer in your s1... (na turbo what doesnt matter)

get some pins changed over and the board soldered in and it works apparently...

dont ask how it works etc coz i dont no... the dude that braught my 260 has told me it is possible, his best mate actualy made nistune!

    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )
    • 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.
