Hey guys after speaking to Brad at boost today, turns out my safc wont help me as id hoped, so im just putting it out there that ill soon be looking for a pfc or some other decent piggyback/stand alone ecu,

so if you know of or have anything let me know & i can get back to you when it comes time

cheers

Get a z32 ecu (like $50) as it will run the vct or a rb20 ecu and get a rpm window switch to run the vct (it's what I do).

A board is around $400 ish

Install is around $100

Should be all set up for under $650

I like it for my set up.. 300+rwkw rb2530 with a T67

you need to add tune cost to that. i know that GT were $1100 base price for complete nistune job.

hmm now that is tempting, i thought they were around $1000-$1200 installed & tuned but $650 sounds much better

650 is only instaled. it wont run like that so you then have to instal it and tow it to a workshop then have them tune it wich will be min $300 so theres almost your 1100 for gt.

im pretty sure boost is cheaper than that but power fcs are cheap and they come with a base map and do all the things you need.

nistune is the cheapest way you will get around it but for the price and added benifits of a power fc it would have to be the next cheapest option.

if you find other cheaper ecus like link you will need to find a tuner that will be happy to tune with it. everyone tunes power fcs.

I'm happy with my Nistune =) very easy to figure out as far as tuning is concerned, and they come with base maps to suit all nissans so they run the same as the std ecu :) all up it was under 700 fitted but i have tuned it myself so saved a lot of money there.

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
