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.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
