Mine's ECUs are stock ECUs with a modified basemap, usually this basemap is generic but it could be tuned specifically for one of Mine's customers (bigger injectors, Z32 ECU, bigger turbo, tuned lean via EGTs not AFRs etc.). You have pretty much just wasted your money for a generic basemap, and have actually put your engine in jeopardy if it's a specific tune.

Sell it, buy a nistunable Z32 ecu (for VCT control) and tune it properly, forget the fuel pump that's the least of your worries.

Exactly.

Im now into DOUBLE FIGURES on people i know (or know of) with R33 GTST's that have blown a motor with a mines Ecu. (piston ringland 95% of the time)

they do feel great and transform a stock car but it is not worth the price you ultimately pay

I'd throw that ECU in the bin and buy one that won't kill your car.

Mines is tuned for a specific application, not generic cars.

Powerfc, or get a vg30 ECU and nistune it, you'll get a much safer resolution.

I'm actually looking forward to getting a nistune and tuning It myself.

Do the world and yourself a favour and bin the Mines ecu. Your fuel pump is getting old so if you have plans for more kw down the track you could look into getting a new pump that will fit with your plans. Nistune is the most cost effective way to get tuneability.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
