Where abouts am i able to get a modded/or get modified the standard ecu on my rb20? Chiptorque want $700 which i could almost buy an aftermarket ecu for that much... i remember some people do exchanges for the original one plus a few hundred $. What sort of power gain would be expected, it has FMIC, S2 RB25 turbo, turbo back exhaust, pod filter, 15psi?

that sounds similar to the set up i'll be running, when i've ask this ? i got an answer of around 180+rwkw, towards the ECU i'm think the same way you are 700 for chip and tune or 1300 for new ecu and tune with money saved on rechipping and tune (chiptorque= 500 upgrade and tune) later...

well chiptourqe in Sydney want $1500 for my RB20 ECU i think $700 is pretty reasonable, i would be happy to pay that for someone who knows what they are doing.

i know Toshi on this forum does some exchanges for about $200 for a new chip. the difference is he only changes some base settings, whilst a dyno tuner will setup the ECU specificallly for your car - and as you know everyones car behaves differently.

I would say spend $700 on a professional to tune your ECU if you dont plan on any further modifications, otherwise go all out and buy a PFC you can get them for around $1000 for an RB20 on greenline or nengun now.

    • My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.
    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
