I have a r32 with a stagea rb25det neo.

It isn't running right and im thinking maybe the ecu has something to do with it.

The r32 is manual converted.

The current ecu is 23740 0V300

I'm sure this is the 4wd auto stagea ecu.

if my car is rwd and manual, would the ecu possibly need to be changed to a different ecu?

That's the wrong ecu. It doesn't matter if its manual or auto but the OV300 is a Hitachi ecu for a series 1 Stagea that has the R33 engine. You need a Jecs ecu for a series 2 Stagea which had the Neo engine such as .23710 aa501 (or an R34 GTT ecu).

Yup says ov300, that would explain why its running so crap, doesn't like to boost. If i was to get a the neo ecu, would it be hard to swap over?

If the car runs then I doubt the ecu is your issue.

I would open one thread with ALL the information so you can get some help.

Actually, if the car runs, and is notionally a Neo engine using an R33 era ECU.....what's the chances of it being all normal stuff in there? I thought the ECU pinout was different between R33 era stuff and R34 era stuff. There are certainly different devices (like the boost sensor) on Neo stuff. If the engine is being run by an R33 style ECU, then it's quite possible that some sensors and stuff have been changed or rewired on the Neo engine.

This car needs to be put in front of an expert who can look at it all at once and work out what it is and what to do with it. These piecemeal threads on this car are not helping. Advice I gave in the other thread about Nistuning the ECU will be invalid if it turns out to be an R33 ECU!!!!!!!

Photos with rose tinted glasses perhaps?

The engine is not from a 4WD stagea. Traction control rules that out. The ECU, if the lid matches the contents, is definitely from the early S1 Stagea. That should not plug into a Neo ECU loom plug.

You definitely have some sort of bitsa going on there.

You also have that ling long turbo.

Why so many threads on all these problems? I think guys should have one thread "my car is a mechanical abortion"

Go out and get a power fc or something tunable so that you can make it run the way it should. Unless you know you have low compression in the motor and didn't check it before purchase.

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
