Looking forward to seeing this :) Particularly with you using the Nistune, assuming that's what you're still going ahead with.

Just a note Nistune wont work on the NA r34 ECU, the NA and turbo ecu's are totally different internally. The ecu accept the type 2 boards (i tried) but as of a fortnight ago Nistune advised there was no way of doing it as there information on jumpers and the ecu wont download the std BIN properly.

i use the Turbo Ecu or emanage ultimate on NA+t's

Might be a bit of confusion here? I was talking the R34 GTR ECUs will not do a download for us but I've never attempted on the NA R34 ECU before

I had been previously sent pictures from what was meant to be a NA R34 ECU and it looked like it didnt take a board

Perhaps I have that confused ???

If the NA R34 does take a Type 2 board then we should be able to do it... if you have one and can use the HCR32/BNR32 address file and do a Operations - Consult Download and send me the BIN file

I'll have a look at it and generate a new address file and ENT programming for it

I was checking over the R34 manual last night and I'm sure it was a grey connector for this ECU ... and updated internals using Hitachi MCU?

Mat i tried for hours to download the bin file but it gets halfway through they just starts racking up errors, tried a few different programs. The board will definately take a type 2 and 4wire header but i cracked the sads when i could not pull a bin from it. i also tried a few other images and tried to sync to it but they were all over the place.

Im sure if we got one over to you you could sort it out.

internally they look like s15 but with no verticle boards and an empty eprom position instead of the twin empty rows. Eprom position is in the midle of the board too. AA112 i think was the ecu code.

okay here is what I had mailed to me... R34 GT ECU with H8539F FLASH ROM chip (I believe).... so this thing might be able to be reflashed like later model ECUs given enough hours (and beer) to look into the thing

I haven't delved into flash tuning yet because (a) no time (b) no publically available information about it for Nissans © cobbtuning already have a product for FLASH based ECUs.... but they wouldnt have done the RB25DE

no daughterboard capability as can be seen. what ECU are you using? there is a 28 pin header on this ECU... but that is for Auto trans auxillary chip not for the main MCU (micro controller unit)

Consult download command 0xc9 not recognosed in the R34 GTR ecu... might be the same for this one. Must be a different command perhaps?

Bugger the ecu i had here did not have the 1012a chip...... weird a it was auto too.

hey guys, thanks for all the replies.

i spoke to three authorised tuners in NSW (unigroup, MRC DYNO & unique autosports)

and they all said it will work with the R34 NA Ecu.

Are they saying this just to get a customer or will it really work?

based on the 2 NA ecu's ive seen its not possible.... the picture above confirms it.

Unigroup, MRC DYNO & unique autosports probably assume the same thing i did. i assumed that the NA ecu internals would be the same as GTT (most s13, s14, r32 ecu's run the same internals between NA and turbo, the R34 does not) this assumption landed me with two cars i could not remap.

Matt if im wrong let me know.... im starting to doubt my sanity :D

big time FAIL!

what if i get a GTT manual ECU?

would that work if you cancel out (or dont cancel anything) the standard sensors such as boost, traction etc? would it still run okay, afaik, the only thing different from the ecu is just them few sensors, ill be running gtt injectors & afm which is the main thing, everything else would work okay.

  • 1 month later...

i know this isnt the for sale thread, but im looking for an r34 NA loom and ecu, mine has been butchered beyod recovery. even the ecu connector is broken.

anyone got something for me? i would expect they'd be cheap as they arent a sought after item?

hi guys,

has anyone in here with a R34 non turbo chucked in a rb25det neo from a GTT into their car?

was it a direct plug in wire job?

im planning to just get the complete motor & ecu and whack it in (using the existing loom).

any tips? problems you came across etc?

cheers

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
