Nistune - Eprom Vs Z32

[buzzboy]

Hi all

I have an old eprom nistune rb25det ecu laying around from before my engine build. I am now looking at having my car retuned again but not sure if you use the old eprom nistune ecu or go with a z32 nistune. I have herd that the eprom way had some issues …

car currently has a stock ECU

Definitely go with a Z32 or R32 gtst ecu and get a nistune module installed. If the rb25det only has a remapped eprom in it it wont save you any money, it also means it is harder for them to do the remapping most the time as the software is not as good, unless there is a way to use the nistune software with an emulator.

Z32 ecu means you retain the VCT but is a bit more mucking around to get it going, there is a thread here discussing them all though, prob a good idea to have a read and see which ECU out of the R32 and Z32 is the better option.

I wont use the R32 ecu's as its more frigging around than the z32 if you want a good result.

I have a R32 ECU running my R33. I Should have gone the Z32 as It cost me another $300 for a VCT controller.

Any ideas where I can buy afew Z32 ecus?

I'd like to know too, well I can think of a few places I can try offhand, as they don't pop up on ebay much it seems

im running an rb25det ECU with some type of eprom in it that can be tuned using nistune and an emulator... should i chuck it and go the z32 path . have all the issues with the z32 been fixed yet such as tps?
