Hey there i just got my standard ecu chipped (R32 gtst rb20det) it was a standard auto computer and seemed to go sweet in my manual except for detonation at 10psi when boosting, anyway i plugged the ecu in and at first was pretty hard to start but started and the exhaust temp light was flashing and so was the red light in the ecu, and if you slowly put your foot on the accl it revs up but if you put your foot down it almost stalls and runs like a bag of puss, any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

ok been playin with the aac valve and the fine tuning thing in the ecu but that doesnt seem to be doin much anyway the damn exhaust\gas light keeps flashingwhat the hell? i never seen it flash before i tried reseting the ecu but doesnt do squat and the search function on this site is crap so does someone have any idea?

it sounds like you have put a cradle in your ecu and installed a remap. either 3 possible causes

1. the remap is not programmed correctly on the eprom

2. the eprom is not sitting in the socket correclty

3. the ecu has been damager installing the soket or eprom..the tracks are fairly fragile on these ecus and break easily. where did you get the remap and was it done to suit your mods?

ahh dam dont tell me that..... :wub: i got it made to suit the car just got it back it was sent fully bubble wrapped and returned the same. So its not reading the eprom? it was done by remap.co.nz supposed to be pretty good but he wont pick up his effin phone

mine was done mail order too. Toshi

went to the dyno straight away and tuned the SAFC around a bit, made a vast difference in the end

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
