A friends R34 GTR power fc has an intermittent fault which is causing it to drop 2 cylinders at idle at random and reading negative air temp values on a 25 degree day. Its not just air temp being affect as well, Ive logged irregularities with the TPS and MAF sensors too.

So Ive told him to re-install his standard ecu until he can source a replacement.

I've since been told that his "mechanic" tried to do this, but the car would not start when the standard ecu was re-installed. Is it likely that this is BS, or is there some sort of proceedure that I need to be aware of to re-install the standard ECU in the car. (Injectors and coils are all standard. The car only has an exhaust and a boost controller.)

I would presume the ecu would not drop its pairing with the transponder key when the ecu is disconnected from the loom. Otherwise if a battery ever went flat in a car, the keys would need to be re-programmed all the time.

Thoughts... Suggestions?

Cheers,

Ian

its only in the supplement manual for BNR34 - i highlighted the filename at the top left

the normal R34 service manual doesnt have any info on the NATS or ATTESSA/E-TS systems

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
