I was wondering if anyone has used a stock Series 2 ecu in a series 1 R34GTT.

I have a series 1 R34GTT manual and want to install a series 2 ECU.

I know there was a torque increase in Series 2's and a few other changes, so I am wondering if the ECU was different as a result.

Thanks

I have a Nistuned GTT ecu that's already been tuned for Air filter/interfcooler/exhaust and 12psi for sale for $400

For example you're better off buying something like that and then getting your afr checked on a dyno or even a touch up tune.

I really can't see any benefit in trying to chase a particular series ecu for little to no gains when you can have the car setup perfectly for its current time real world condition.

Reason i ask is because i currently have an impul ecu which is tuned for jap fuel i think. I bought a series 2 ecu to put in my car to avoid any issues driving using 98ron. I have however bought a series 2 ecu and wanted to check that it will work ok in a series 1 before i install it. Definitely didnt get it for the power increase in series 2. Just wanted to make sure it was compatible. Fron what i read the extra power in series 2 comes from revised cam shafts, and wanted to see if the ecu was revised to accomodate the cams. Cheers

Just letting you know from what I've found the s2 manual models have a different exhaust cam, compressor wheel and compressor housing compered to the auto s2 and all s1 models.

Would the different exhaust cam mean a different map in the ECU? Would this ECU still be ok for a Series 1, or is the tune very different?

Most likely. Not sure if it will be ok for a series 1 and I don't know how different the tune is.

I recommend you get a tuneable ECU and tune it or pick the ECU that your engine came with from the factory if the car is stockish just for peace of mind.

ok, so i looked at My copy of nistune in relation to r34 ecu's as I was curious.

There are approx 6 different image files, and this is the biggst difference i could find quickly comparing them. Alot were identical.

The timing maps had a copule of spots with 1 or 2 degrees different, wouldnt matter at all.

this snip is comparing 2 fuel maps.

i would call them the same....

you can download nistune as a trial, load them up into the main and comp slot, then click the magnifying glass to compare.

Thanks very much for confirming everyone, looks like it will be good to use.

Hope this post helps anyone else with similar question in the future as a lot of ecu questions relate to R33, but not many for R34.

Just letting you know from what I've found the s2 manual models have a different exhaust cam, compressor wheel and compressor housing compered to the auto s2 and all s1 models.

I'd love to see some hard evidence that manual and auto have different exhaust cams and different turbos.

Series 1 are obviously different from Series 2. (compressor wheel from memory)

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
