Hi guys and girls just want to no what's the better ecu to run on my r33 gtst s2 my minds been in limbo for months now wondering what ecu to buy and what's your experience with the brands Or any other suggestion my setup gonna be hi flow turbo bosh 040 fuel pump z32 afm not sure on what size injectors to run oh and has anybody had experience with those forward facing plenuims on eBay are they any good.

go for cheapest.. probably PowerFC

HOWEVER, Haltech has about 1000000000x more features:

- flex fuel

- launch control

- anti lag

- flat shifting

- boost control

- internal map sensor, ditch AFM

- closed loop knock, wideband O2, etc.

- IAT input

- no need for stupid data logit boxes, direct USB

I personally would go Haltech, not bother with those dim sim Plenums and use the stock one.. afterall you're only using a high flow, which does not warrant a plenum upgrade.. save that money for a proper mechanic diff.

Thanks Luke and John haltech it is, would this be a good ecu if I wanna keep going crazy on power upgrades lol on the dim sim plenium but I hate the the look off the stock one it makes me wanna close the bonnet lol

Hating the look of the plenum isn't enough of a reason to change it and lose torque.....

halthech will grow with you.

Last my engine was running, I was at 445rwkw.

And there are plenty more with higher power then me.

As i said though, go the platinum pro plug in.

Seems to have a better feature set.

The sport 1000 doesn't have support for more then 4 coils from memory.

Think i shall be seeing JEM for the Halteck on myS2 R33 with my hiflow i recently got. Already saw a 49kw increase atw with the stock ecu and an avcr controller on the same 10psi that the stock turbo was running. The halteck can also support the very sexy looking racepack dash later on ;)

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
