Cefiro Auto Ecu

[rayj]

Hey guys,

I've just spent a few hours searching the forums for answers and can't find a definite answer.

I have an early model Cefiro RB20DET Auto from 1988. Currently it has a stock Auto Cefiro ECU, so all is good.

What I want to know, is the R32 Auto ECU a direct swap for the Cefiro Auto ECU? From what I've gathered, wires (pinouts) may be different... Is this true, anybody know for sure?

I'm asking because I'm about to do a remap using a NIStune board, and its developers have told me they are having trouble with Ceffy ECUs. They said the best thing to do would be to swap it over for a R32 ECU and go from there.

I was always under the impression the ECUs aren't a straight swap.

Thanks for any help

If your talking about the engine ecu for an auto a31then yes , the r32 auto ecu is a direct fit

As toff said they use the same plug, i went from auto cefiro ECU - manual cefiro ECU - R32 ECU.

Cefiro is no good for remapping so use the 32 one for a Nistune/Remap.

thanks guys.

no re-pinning or anything?

I've read through countless threads, some people say direct fit, then others say early models like mine (1988) have different pinouts... so yeh, all those threads get confusing.

cheers

Plugs straight in,

CAS, AFM and coilpack plugs are different from early model A31's to R32's/later model A31's, ECU plug is the same.
