hi all thanks for reading!

last night i but a z32 ecu on my r33 gtst, i followed these instructions.

R33 pin 19 to Z32 pin 34

R33 pin 105 to Z32 pin 110

R33 pin 110 to Z32 pin 105

R33 pin 112 to Z32 pin 114

R33 pin 114 to Z32 pin 112

R33 pin 57: cut

Z32 pins 29+55 :<<<i had no wire in 55 so i made one.

Z32 pin 33 cut (exhaust temp light)

i have installed a romavale eprom in the z32 ecu and installed a z32 base map with r33 map inside given to me by nistune.

the car strikes up but its very lumpy and pumping in huge amounts of fuel. i checked my wiring and i cant see anything wrong

i even burnt another eprom and its still the same?

even if i remove the afm the car is just the same and i have a z32 afm and r33 .

any help would be great guys thank you :D

Seeing as you aren't just installing a direct replacement ecu, i'd put it all back together with the std ECU and AFM, and give it to a professional.

But if you're hard headed like me, and wont give up that easily;

re-check all your wiring, and make sure all the connections have been properly made.

This caught me out when i replaced my ecu- there was loosely spliced wiring from gadgets installed by a previous owner - and i accidentally disconnected one of the wires without noticing, which caused similar engine behaviour to what you are having.

Check your afm + its wiring, make sure that has been connected properly also.

Make sure the ecu loom is plugged in firmly too - do the bolt up as much as you can. If you dont do it up tightly, the loom can move slighty, and the engine will splutter and shut itself off.

wtf did you put that in for??? why dont you just buy an aftermarket engine management system like normal people do?

Because Nistune is better than any after market ECU within its price range(Actually quadruple the price range?) And trust me a lot of normal people chip the stock ECU

Now for something helpfull. What AFM are you using and what injectors? Was the chip you put in setup for z32 equipment as far as the K Value? (In other words is the tune expecting a Z32 AFM to be connected and different sized injectors?)

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
