Hi guys,

ITEM: Adaptronic E1280S ECU. I've been running this in my car, but unfortunately I need cash more than a car with an aftermarket ECU. I'll include the 3-bar MAP sensor this comes with too, I'll take photos of the wiring needed to hook this up. The connector that goes into the MAP sensor is a bit beat-up, but when it's plugged in it's solid. Pics to come when I get home from work.

Link to Adaptronic's page: http://adaptronic.com.au/products/e1280s.html <----- This has all the information needed about what this ECU can do.

I'm after $1100 ono for both ECU and MAP sensor. Bought new, this will set you back $2078.

Was running 202.1rwkw on my R33 GTS-T, 10psi using Apexi AVC-R, exhaust, FMIC, and Bosch 040 FP. Nothing special.

To give you an idea of what it looks like for now though:

As you can see, it has a direct R33 GTS-T plug-in for the ECU loom. I'm not sure what other Skylines use this loom (I guess a fair few?), but Adaptronic have loom plugs here: http://adaptronic.com.au/products.html?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage_new.tpl&product_id=39&category_id=4

I'm located in Wollongong, NSW and work in Sydney, but can ship nationally. If sold for $1100 I'll throw in registered shipping (and email you a photo of it all packaged up ready to be sent at the post office), if less then I'll pay for some of the shipping (so it might cost you $10 shipping or something).

The ECU pictured there is the newer revision. As mine is the original revision, I'll update the firmware to the latest version, and include the software needed to tune this (and any emails/instructions I can find from Rob and Andy at Adaptronic with hints and instructions) on a flash drive. I HIGHLY recommend this is tuned and installed at the same time; it runs on my car, but as we all know, all cars are different, and can be quite picky about their tune. I believe Unigroup in NSW tune Adaptronics (although I could be wrong, feel free to correct me if I am), and I know MRC in Castle Hill do too.

I'm contactable via PM at the moment, not really able to answer the phone during work hours, and 4 hours of travel on a train each day with iffy reception makes my mobile a bit of a bad idea. If you're genuinely interested, PM me your number and I can call you, if you like.

Please, no lowballers. You're wasting your time, and mine. I'm negotiable, but not to a huge extent. I don't NEED this gone, would just help a lot.

Andy and Rob: If you come across this, please don't take any of this as a negative towards your product; far from it! It's been a fantastic ECU to drive with, I've just hit a rough patch and it's unfortunately towards the top of the list of things that can go without impacting on life too much :(

Good luck! I'm in the market for a ECU but i think i'll go the Nistune option.

On a side note: I'll tell you what we did to your car for the ECU? Haha.

Good luck with the sale! Cheap price!

Sigh, home too late today. Will do my best ASAP to show condition of plug.

Thanks for the kind words Matt! Hope someone can use this.

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By Duncan · Posted

      I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....

      So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.

      our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
