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!!!

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

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.

      Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things

      Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
