No problems running "moderate" upgraded terbs with the std ecu. You will start to approach the limit of the std injectors and prolly also be near the limit of the afms.

Check the a/f ratios on a dyno, however, to ensure all is OK with fuel supply however.

gtrken on these forums has prolly done this a squillion times before and could offer more advice.

fyi,

a friend of mine ran the N1s on his RB26 with the standard and everything was fine, although he only ran 12psi, and it went quite hard.

i believe he is selling these turbos atm, so if you're interested PM me and i'll pass his details onto you.

lazza ,

dont bother with the stock ecu , they will run fine but very rich , got them in my gtr .

get a pfc get it tuned and you will have an 11 second car just with turbs , pfc and a good exhaust . thats all i've got and i ran 11.7 @120mph at wsid . when i had the stock ecu i had nowhere near the power that i have now and i was getting 300 - 350 km per tank , after pfc and a tune i'm getting 450 -500 k per tank and i can loose traction on a dry road in second gear when it comes on boost on the stock 17 X9 's with 245x45 tyres

Does it matter?

Oh yes, the R32 ECU can be tuned in real time on the dyno fairly easily. You get pretty goods results from a mild R32 GTR by tuning the standard ECU. This is not so easy with the R33 ECU, if fact I reckon it is so time consuming (costly) that it is cheaper to buy a PFC. :)

Or just use the R32 ECU in the R33 - my old Mines ECU did the rounds of Perth including an R33.

The ECU is acutally a lesser known jap brand and i cant find any info on it at all.

Its a Power Selection ECU???

I assume that is is not tunable so I will probably look at a PFC, but considering I am about to fork out for turbs I may pospone the PFC until the cash flow improves! Hence my question regarding whether the N1s will be ok with the ECU thats in the car at the moment.

The car is an R33 GTS-T with an RB26DETT transplant, Im not sure whether it is an R32 or an R33 engine??

Thanks for the responses guys.

You are probably right - my old Mines ECU had a big dob of epoxy resin over the eeprom chip. Other brands probably follow suit.

As Steve-SST says above, I am selling my GTR PFC/HC/Boost Kit at a very cheap price in order to help pay for my rebuild. PM me if you are interested.

      R34 Handbrake light saying ON and intermittently flashing

      Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.

      Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.

      The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf

      Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
