What Is This Ecu ? Hks F Con ?

[maclarenf1]

This is only photo i have as the Car is in Japan, can someone who knows there ECU's can you tell what that ECU is

To me it looks like HKS F Con Prov

Looks like an F-con...its the right colour.

Looks like its piggy backed to the standard ECU, what car is it?

[maclarenf1]

2000 R34 GTR V-Spec

MoTeC? They're that browne sorta colour too right?

[paulr33]

yeah thats a HKS FCON pro, great ECU and tons of features and options

useless outside japan as you need a HKS pro tuner with their software

basically sell it and buy a locally supported ECU

otherwise your stuck with whatever tune and setup the car is

if the car is ok and you dont want to change anything, then keep it

Not true, GT AUto in brisbane are HKS pro dealers so they have all the software etc to tune them.

[R31Nismoid]

Well that limits you to a nice broad number of "1" tuner in the state

[zebra]

hahah yeap.....would hope they did good work and were cheap lol

[maclarenf1]

Thanks Guys, it was not mentioned really on the auction report, but i though it looks similer

I contacted GT Auto before for another car i was getting with HKS F Con, seems Few Jap R34 GTR got them now

I am only after mild tune and they should be able to sort me out.

When the time comes to put in some GT-SS (maybe 1.5 years time) will rip it out and put in Power FC or something, so i got lot more tuner choice, but maybe by then brisbane might have more people with HKS license to tune

Doesn't the FCON let you run MAP instead of AFM?

[paulr33]

FCON supports MAP and AFM and also has 32x32 maps

Out of interest, someone like me.. who is only after mere 240 or so AWKW from a GTR, will there be any special benefits of sticking to this ECU, than lets say... common man ECU - Power FC

[R31Nismoid]

None what so ever

[paulr33]

its covered in the powerfc FAQ, but the main issue with the FCON is no local tuners

if you can find one, its probably the only one in the state, so whatever service you get, you have no choice but to go there and pay their price. with other locally supported ecu's you can choose your tuner and price, and if its crap, find another and away you go

any ECU can make any power and be driveable etc

so dont expect one ECU to make power than another

Haha, I was the same with my original power goals. Got bored though. If you think you may want to chase more power, I'd investigate some other ECU's as well like the Vipec plugin, Link, Haltech etc.

Had work done at GT AUTO and they were excellent.

Even if I wasn't looking to put an Fcon in my car I would take it there.
